Some like to complain that adulting is hard, but unless we’re talking death, life insurance or taxes, it’s actually pretty fun. Proof: Pushkin’s Restaurant’s Adult Vegan Grilled Cheese sandwich ($11). Served on thick wedges of gluten-free bread, this decidedly grown-up sandwich is piled high with spinach, rich and spicy pesto, tomato and a buttery cashew cheese. Paired with a small side of zingy tomato soup, it makes for a filling, sophisticated lunch.
