For every Terrace Pointe Cafe out there, there’s a Vegeway. We were looking for some Groupon and Living Social deals that were available to us while we were in Vegas and stumbled across one on Living Social for a deal where you got $14 worth of food for $8. Sold! We snagged one of those up and found our way across town at Vegeway to try and grab a vegan burger...
Vegenation is our new favorite hidden vegan gem in Las Vegas. We haven’t really ventured too far off the strip in the past, but since we were staying North of the strip, this restaurant was right on the way home as it is a couple blocks from Downtown / Fremont Street. It has a great atmosphere, with an awesome green / living wall and some great art on the walls...
Ronald’s Donuts is one of those hidden gems out there that almost feels like a secret club. If you don’t know about it, then you would never know it was secretly a vegan haven packed to the brim with vegan donuts. They are a pure cash company so make sure you hit the ATM before going! When you walk in, the place is pretty non-descript with a few tables...
We got all dressed up and decided to hit the town on our first night in Vegas and of course immediately headed to the Wynn for dinner. Having eaten nearly every restaurant we’ve come across in the Wynn and Encore, it was a bit surprising that neither one of us had ever eaten at Mizumi before! We walked in and were seated next to a gorgeous outdoor waterfall...
Hayden has eaten at the original Shojin in LA little Tokyo numerous times and has always enjoyed the meals there. She was excited to hear that they had opened a second restaurant. At the new Culver City location, the menu is a bit more concise. However, they have an amazing tasting menu option if you want to get the larger plates, like ramen. What We Ordered We...
BEHOLD! The Impossible Burger from Impossible Foods. This burger is specifically designed to “bleed” like real meat and has only been debuted at a couple of locations in California and New York, and now on the Las Vegas strip at Andrea’s at the Wynn! According to their website, the burger is made from “simple, all-natural ingredients such as...
Ahh, Doomie’s. One of our favorite traditions, when we come to LA, is to meet up with our friends Matt and Meggan at Doomie’s for a gorge fest. What We Ordered We started off with an order of the jalapeño poppers to split amongst the table. These and the buffalo wings are generally our go-to starters. We didn’t give the jalapeño poppers enough...
We got a chance to go to the Vegan Street Fair while we were in Los Angeles and it reminded us of the Portland Vegan Beer and Food Festival. Except without all of the beer… and the drunken interactions. Ah, memories. We got to the fair a little later so we didn’t have to experience the massive lines that people were talking about most of the day. For the...
