The Women's March gave me the chance to grab a bite at British-backed "Leon", known for healthy fast food. A menu replete with veggie and vegan options, I got the sweet potato falafel wrap and a baked donut. The falafel wrap was amazing. The sweet potato falafel was baked (all foods are baked rather than fried) and a terrific counterbalance to the heavily garlic-flavored hummus. Wrapped in a warmed whole grain pita, it had crunchy onions and other vegetables mixed to create a deeply satisfying wrap. It was very affordable (less than $10) and tasty but not huge. Next time I will check out some of the appetizer options to round out the meal or get one of the Hot Boxes which seem to be for bigger appetites. The baked donut was as expected. Not bad but I would seek out dessert elsewhere. Bottom line: A nice addition to the growing number of healthy lunch options in downtown DC. Absolutely would visit again.
