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...
The Wynn and Encore have some seriously amazing Asian cuisine and Wazuzu does not disappoint. It’s a little less fancy than some of the other restaurants, which was great for us after spending the afternoon at the pool. We were able to walk right in and eat without a lot of hassle. Vegan Crunch Roll- String beans, cucumber, avocado, Japanese rice crackers...
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...

According to their website, the burger is made from “simple, all-natural ingredients such as...

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...
For Aaron’s birthday, Hayden’s parents took us out to True Food Kitchen in El Segundo, CA. It’s a new restaurant at this location, but the chain of restaurants opened in 2008 in Arizona and have locations in quite a few states with plans to continue expanding. Great news for us, so we can eat here on our travels! We started off with the kale...
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...
