Went to Mandela Tearoom for the first time on a Friday around 1930h, and was surprised to find it just half full. We sat at the front of the restaurant in the pillow corner right by the large windows. After reviewing the menu I ordered :
iced coconut tea : which was wonderful!
tea crumpets: rosemary spelt foccacia toasted with spreads: organic artichoke + garlic, classic garbanzo hummus + sautéed greens, organic roasted tomato + fennel : I loved the artichoke and garlic the best which is surprising as I am a tomato freak.
04 cabernet sauvignon/ chile
curry vermicelli rice noodle bowl: noodles topped with grilled tempeh, chopped assorted organic veggies + almonds-served with a warm coconut curry sauce : this was a light dish perfect for hot weather, although I added a bit of salt
chocolate bundt cake w vanilla soylicious : very rich, awesome…
The service was great; our server took time to answer questions and was friendly and quick. No complaints here.
April 6 2006: A 24th and Baseline Location is open in Phoenix.
The Asian selections are Vegan 'cept Pad Thai Noodles, (Vegan if you order it without the egg!!)
I prefer the Thai Peanut or the Spicy Japanese Noodles.
Staff very helpful and accommodating to Vegans.
Feb 13 2007: I recently inquired about the salad selection at this location; and they are more than willing to offer Tofu as a sub for any meat that is usually offered. The Lettuce wraps excluded, due to the chicken being pre-mixed in.
As a Vegan I would go here for the $5.99 Albalo Polo alone.
Get the Vegetable Kebab $12.95:
Combination of bell pepper, onions, tomato, eggplant and potatoes, seasoned & skewered & broiled to perfection; served on a bed of Basmati rice
Or get the Vegetable Kebab with your choice of AWESOME rice (Zereshk Polo, Adas Polo, Baghala Polo, Albalo Polo, Sabzy Polo) for only $14.95!!
My favorite is Albalo Polo: Fresh black sour cherries mixed with fluffy Basmati rice (Be careful of the pits!)
Alas; you can take your Omnivore friends with you too!
I was at Pesto's on 02/03/07 and the food was awesome.
The Staff was friendly, and served my choices without cheese.
As a Vegan, I ate Bruschetta and the Veggi Supreme pizza.
Lovely!
As a vegan I had a hard time on a layover in Ontario California. Relief came when I found Papaya Bay. I had the "Spring Rolls" (Egg Rolls minus egg) and The Peanut and Coconut Sauce topped Tofu with Veggies, then the fresh Mango and Sticky Rice. All Vegan All Delicious! It was well worth the trip out to Diners Court. Staff was very helpful and the little restaurant itself was beautiful and had a soothing ambiance. (The server was so sweet, she heard I was vegan and asked me if I could have "Coconut Milk"!!) Punk Points to Papaya Bay!
FYI: I wish there were more than 6 vegan options!!!
I am glad I ate here, the food was delicious and the server was very helpful. Alot of Vegan choices !
Zitty-Kritiken:
Wer die Lust am Fleische verloren, jedoch Appetit auf eine Pizza hat, der sollte sich zum Lausitzer Platz begeben. Die freundliche Bedienung kredenzt nicht nur Fenchelkartoffeln mit Rosmarin, Kaiserschmarrn oder veganen Milchkaffee – auch wer sich nicht völlig dem Vegetarismus verschrieben hat, kommt zu einem vollen Magen - etwa mit Hilfe eines thailändischen Fischcurrys. Außerdem gibt es vegane und Saitan-Gerichte. Und das alles in angenehmem Ambiente unter goldenen Stuckverzierungen.

CUPCAKE is Berlin's first & only cupcake shop... vegan selection is: Cupcakes, soups, baked beans on toast, peanut butter & jelly sandwiches... Cupcakes are 1,70€ each. (How is that expensive???)
It was closed down when I went by. Does anyone know if it is open again?
I gave it a call but no answer....???
I love the Voener... Ask for the vegan version to get the dairy free sauce.
delicious.
This place is great, and although there are cheaper options at other stores, you can find all you need in one trip here instead of hitting up 3 different places (Bio-Laden on Skalitzer, or Kraut & Ruben on Heinrichplatz) Bonus here is you can get the big Soy-Steaks!!! I can't find them at home in Phoenix Arizona :-(
Friendly staff.
OK, I ate here about 4 times in 3 weeks but as a vegan you're pretty much looking at a fast food joint, which is not necessarily bad, one just wishes for more options. Personally I found the Seitan Burger way to dry and tasteless. The Muffins are nothing special; But hey, the good side is I loved the "Pepperman-Cheeze" burger, and that's why I went back!
Friendly staff, but, (lol!) Hippie type music, Nice Bright Atmosphere.
On a recent visit on April 4th, 2008 they had Vegan Tiramisu!!!
I was at Cafe Berlin for the Sunday Brunch Buffet. The spread was beautiful, and included quite a few Vegan options. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The Cafe itself looks out over the street to a large Plaza courtyard. If in San Juan, don't miss this Jewel!

No question. If you are Vegan, this place is awesome. When Omnivore friends want to eat out, this is THE place I take them to. I'm happy; they are happy. Super Staff, great comfort food. Lots of combinations possible with the bowls, so Green does not get boring.
Tell me: who can mess with Vegan "Cheezecake"???
