A vegan in New York?
What’s a vegan? Well…for starters, we don’t eat meat, chicken, fish, eggs,dairy products, or any other animal-derived food. Of course, there’s much more to this lifestyle than can be covered in a single blog post—e.g.,vegans also don’t “wear†animals (wool, fur, leather, down, etc.)—but what we’re here to report is that our fair city is nothing short of a vegan paradise.
East Side or West Side, Uptown or Downtown…beneath NYC’s concrete façade lies a vast array of strictly vegan eateries along with an incalculable number of vegan-friendly establishments. Fast food, slow food, organic food,raw food…no one does the vegan thing like NYC.
From A (Angelica Kitchen) to Z (Zen Palate), no major metropolis on the Whole Earth (Bakery) can hold a Candle (Cafe) to Gotham City. You can even make certain your shoes won’t Moo. So, for those who may judge a city by how its subway smells, check your preconceptions and your steaks at the door and get ready to take an animal-free bite out of our Big Apple.
