Moe Vegan's Kae Hart On Building a Plant-Based Empire

#TheDayWithTrae - Kae Hart, co-owner of Moe Vegan, recently appeared on "The Day with Trae" to discuss his journey into the vegan culinary world and the growth of his business. Hart shared the deeply personal story behind Moe Vegan, revealing that his transition to a plant-based diet was inspired by his brother's passing due to health complications. He emphasized that the restaurant serves as a tribute to his brother, keeping his name and legacy alive.


Hart, who has no formal culinary training, explained how he adapted his traditional cooking techniques and seasonings to vegan ingredients, creating the "comfort food" style that Moe Vegan is known for. He recounted the early days of his food truck, where he often gave away or sold food at discounted prices to convince skeptical customers of the deliciousness of vegan cuisine, a strategy that ultimately led to a loyal following calling his food "vegan crack."


Moe Vegan has since transitioned from a popular food truck to a brick-and-mortar restaurant in Kent, Washington, located at 23325 Pacific Highway South. Hart highlighted the challenges and increased responsibilities of managing a full-time staff, emphasizing his commitment to providing stable livelihoods for his employees. He encourages everyone to visit Moe Vegan, open from 11 PM to 8 PM Wednesday to Friday and 12 PM to 8 PM Saturday and Sunday, to experience their unique approach to plant-based comfort food and support a business dedicated to health and community.
