Kale My Name and Avocado Theory Join Forces to Bring Beloved Vegan Dishes to Chicago Suburbs
Kale My Name and Avocado Theory team up to bring popular vegan dishes to two Chicago suburbs: Tinley Park and Naperville
April 3rd, 2025, Chicago, Illinois – In a groundbreaking collaboration, Kale My Name, the award-winning fully vegan restaurant, is partnering with Avocado Theory, the popular non-vegan eatery, to introduce a curated selection of Kale My Name’s most beloved plant-based dishes to Avocado Theory’s menu. This is a template that more vegan restaurants should follow, expanding their reach with an inclusive strategy that allows other restaurants to embrace vegan options at their own pace and on their own terms.
Starting Friday, April 4th, 2025, at Avocado Theory’s Tinley Park location, and expanding in May to its newest Naperville location, this partnership will make delicious and allergy-friendly vegan options more accessible than ever. “We are extremely excited about this collaboration,” said Krunal Patel , owner of Avocado Theory. “Bringing more vegan options to Tinley Park with Kale My Name’s menu items—already proven to be delicious and loved by so many—is something we’re really proud of. We want to offer choices that everyone can enjoy, and this partnership is the perfect way to do that.”
Five Wildly Popular Plant-Based Dishes
The collaboration will feature five of the most popular Kale My Name dishes, all of which are gluten-free, soy-free, and nut-free, making them suitable for a wide range of dietary needs:
• Cauliflower Wings – crispy, flavorful, and addictive
• Fried Avocado Tacos – a perfect balance of crunch and creaminess
• Neiman Salad – a fresh and vibrant fan-favorite
• Garlic Kale – a simple yet flavorful take on this superfood
• Cheddar Broccoli Soup – creamy, comforting, and packed with flavor
For the dedicated Hungry Kales—as fans of Kale My Name are known— this means more places to enjoy their favorite plant-based meals outside of Kale My Name’s original location. Nemanja Golubovic, Founder & CEO of Kale My Name, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership: “Over the last few years, we’ve seen many vegan restaurants closing or transitioning to non-vegan menus. So, when a non-vegan restaurant reached out to me asking if I could help bring more plant-based options totheir menu, I was absolutely thrilled to say yes. This is the kind of collaboration that shows the growing demand for delicious vegan food.”
