Eating vegan in Rochester is just too easy. With established favorite cuisines (like Ethiopian, above, Addis Ababa‘s vegan platter with plenty of injera) and great and plentiful date spots, we are making up for beginning our time long distance. Here is one such date night at La Casa Restaurant. Two Read more…

Staying close to home this school recess–reluctantly–I have the goal of whittling down my list of area eateries to hit. There are so many vegan sandwiches to try! Because I am the lone mouth of this blog, it’d have to be one day at a time. 🤤 First: The Pig Read more…

Wynwood, Miami is a bit of a thing. It’s an Art District showcasing some pretty spectacular graffiti murals, “good vibes” (i.e. the smell of mary jane), and lots of hip eateries and shops. So that means a ton of people: not my favorite thing. 😆 But that is where Charley’s Read more…

It was a whirlwind of a day in Montana. I am grateful to have tasted some really good vegan options… I ate well! And today that started at Bernice’s Bakery in Missoula, which has vegan bakery options. I was there bright and early with some other early birds. And I ate Read more…

On the way to the farm we stopped at a new all-vegan bakery in Verona, New Jersey: Cupcraze. As per usual, when visiting an out-of-state bakery, I have to get at least 2 cupcakes. I chose this one above, their delicious banana split cupcake, and I am glad that I Read more…

Wait. What? Do you see that? The billboard right outside of our cheap motel in Foxboro, Massachusetts. “Go Vegan!” Well, what do you know. This billboard, part of Peta‘s “Be Healthy. Be Happy. Be Vegan.” campaign was a nice siting. Nicer than the true but kinda offensive Save the Whales Read more…

It’s too hot for 3 meals a day. Here are my recent dunch highlights. Urban Rustic makes a mean Club Sandwich, the all-vegan Unclub. I’ve gone on about it before, yes. [Tofurky, Vegenaise, Dijon mustard, strips of tempeh bacon, local tomatoes and sprouts in between three slices of soft, toasted Read more…

It’s about time I got myself to Stogo, New York City’s all-vegan gourmet ice cream shop. To escape the debilitating heat and humidity, CandyPenny and I ducked into the East Village storefront’s huge people-watching windows to cool down with their soy, hemp and coconut-based frozen treats. Stogo has some wonderful Read more…

Though we’d left TX behind spent the evening just west of Oklahoma City, we needed to drive through the panhandle to reach our next destination, Santa Fe, New Mexico. A good 7 to 8 hours drive from where we had woken up, we pit-stopped in Amarillo, Texas at Eat-Rite, a Read more…
After crashing hard from the evening before, morning had us ready to hit the road for reals. We had a loose destination, an eatery in Fort Worth, Texas about 3 hours or so north from Austin. But after that… the unknown… kinda. We were going to take it one day Read more…

When it comes to American Mexican food, the West coast puts the East coast to shame. Before Greenpoint, Brooklyn’s Papacitos stepped up to serve authentic and fresh Mexican with a street-food flare, if I wanted a veg-friendly burrito I had to settle for a million and one substitutions (No this, no Read more…

It would be an injustice not to devote an entire post to the amazing hostel in Guanajuato that held my weary head for two days and two nights. After a long drive for someone with nothing to think about, we finally found La Casa de Dante. As soon as we Read more…

Garden Cafe in Woodstock, New York is a wonderful little cafe who’s vegan quesadillas are worth the price of a rental car and Triborough Bridge traffic. I recommend the black bean and spinach version to share. I’m usually a great vegan cheese detective but I can’t place this vegan cheese. Read more…
