  Vegetarian Restaurants:

  Chicago Diner, 3411 N. Halsted, 935-6696
  - The best vegetarian restaurant in the Midwest. Not all vegan, but
    very vegan friendly. Tofu burgers, good soy shakes, etc. Some
    really good vegan pasta cream sauces, various vegan specials like
    seitan stroganoff, cabbage rolls w/artichoke sauce, a terrific
    Paella and fairly creative tofu roulades. All desserts vegan.
    Open Sun-Thu 11am-9pm, Fri-Sat 11am-9:30pm. Near the Addison 'el'
    station.

  Soul Vegetarian East, 2 blocks east of I-94's 75th Street exit.
  - Vegan. Great lentil soup and "roast beef" sandwich. Very
    inexpensive. Try the appetizer-combo platter to experience the
    chef's full range. Homemade dairyless ice-cream. On Sundays you'll
    get a fixed meal, down-home style.

  Govinda's, 1715 W. Lunt

  Natraj, 2240 W. Devon
  - Indian. In USA's most bustling Indian district.

  Udupi Palace, 2543 W Devon, 338-2152.
  - Newly opened South Indian vegetarian restaurant. Most of the fare
    is vegan. Exceptionally prepared. Excellent food quality & service.
    Large portions.

  Standard India Resaurant, on Belmont
  - Indian Vegetarian. All-you-can-eat buffet.

  The Bread Shop
  - Near the Addison 'el' station.

| Cafe Voltaire, 3231 N. Clark Street, 528-3136
| - Very small cafe. Sometimes features plays in a downstairs room (does
|   anyone know if it's wheelchair accessible?). Open late.


  Vegetarian-Friendly Restaurants:

| Ethio Cafe, one block south of Mama Desta's on Clark
| - As modest as Mama Desta's is showy, this tiny restaurant revolves
|   almost entirely around its $5.99 all-you-can-eat vegetarian buffet,
|   a feast of various textures and degrees of heat that will leave you
|   fat and happy.

| The Lucky Platter, on Main St. in Evanston just E of Chicago Ave
| - Vegetarian ragout and Mexican polenta are just two of a half-dozen
|   delectable vegetarian items on their innovative menu. Inexpensive.

| Lulu's on Davis and Orrington in downtown Evanston
| - "Dim Sum and Then Some" is the slogan for this converted hot-dog
|   stand that serves a variety of Oriental dishes at excellent prices.
|   One side of the menu is vegetarian, the other non.

  Charlie Trotter's, 816 W. Armitage
  - The best restaurant in Chicago. Has a vegetarian degustation menu,
    and you can get a vegan version by asking when you make
    reservations. The place is mondo expensive, expect dinner to cost
    anywhere from $100 to $200 per person. You also must wear a jacket
    and tie and make reservations at least a few days in advance, but
    the food is a sensual experience of orgasmic proportions.
    Unbelievable.

  Heartland Cafe, on Lunt.
  - Several vegetarian dishes. Next to the Morse 'el' station.

| A Natural Harvest, 7122 S. Jeffery Blvd, 363-3939
| - Natural foods. Specialties are vegetable protein foods such as
|   burgers, hotdogs, and steaklets. Also sold by the pound. Closed

|   service. *VRG

  lo-calzone, 912 rush street, 943-9060
  - Hummus burrito is $3.99, SO BIG you need a crane to lift it. Veggie
    or tofu burgers $4.15. Also veggie chili.

  Moti Mahal, on Belmont and Kenmore
  - Great Indian food. Near the Kenmore 'el' station.

| Gaylord, 678 N. Clark Street, 664-1700
| - Indian. Meals freshly prepared without canned or proccessed
|   ingredients. Vegan options. *VRG

  Mama Desta's Red Sea, near the corner of Clark and Belmont
  - Ethiopian. Very reasonably priced and the food is delicious. I
    suggest the "sandwiches" of lentils, spinach, and something else
    (it escapes me at the moment). Highly recommended. The atmosphere
    is really cool inside, too.

  Thai:
  - 'Vegetarian' in Thai means 'substitute tofu for flesh'. Be sure to
    insist on no fish sauce or other animal products.
  Star of Siam, 11 E. Illinois St
  The Bangkok, on Halsted and Addison
  Penny's Noodle Shop

  Most restaurants in Metro Detroit are NOT vegetarian friendly;
  here are some wonderful exceptions:

  Vegetarian Restaurants:

  Govinda's, 383 Lenox Avenue, 331-6740
  -Hare Krishna vegetarian restaurant.

  Pure N' Simple, 2791 Rochester Road, Troy, just north of I-75
  entrance, [phone]
  - Good food, big menu. Slow service, but worth the wait if you have
    some time. Seventh Day Adventist. Open Sun 12-8; Mon-Thurs 11:30-8;
    Fri 11:30-3; closed Saturday.


  Vegetarian-Friendly Restaurants:

  Inn Season, 500 E. 4th Street, downtown Royal Oak, [phone]

  Taste of Thailand, 2755 University Drive, Auburn Hills, close to I-75
  entrance, [phone]
  - Most Thai restaurants around Detroit have practically no vegetarian
    entrees on the menu. Taste of Thailand offers most of its entrees
    with the option of tofu. Food is superb. However keep in mind that
    'Vegetarian' in Thai means 'substitute tofu for flesh'. Be sure to
    insist on no fish sauce or other animal products.

  Sweet Lorraine's Cafe, 29101 Greenfield, Southfield, [phone]
  - Has a variety of vegetarian entrees and sandwiches on the menu.
    Food is creative and tasty.

  Anita's Kitchen, 110 W. Maple Road, Troy, [phone]
  - Middle Eastern cuisine, with many Middle Eastern vegetarian dishes,
    as well as a great veggie lasagna, and, best of all, several really
    good vegetarian soups.

  Good Food East, 74 W. Maple Road, Troy, [phone]
  - Probably the largest health food store in Metro Detroit, with a deli
    which I believe is entirely vegetarian, and a small cafe area.

  Reno
  ----

  The Blue Heron, 1091 S. Virginia Street, 786-4110

  New York


  Albany
  ------

  Dahlia's, 858 Madison Ave, [phone]
  - Vegetarian restaurant. International gourmet including pasta pesto,
    falafel, enchiladas, gado gado. Casual dining.



  Ithaca
  ------

  Thanks to Judith Underwood ([e-mail]) for supplying the
  section on Ithaca.

  Generally a very good place for vegetarians.  Few restaurants have
  nothing vegetarian on the menu, though some Chinese places have little
  more than mixed vegetables and vegetable chow mein.


  Vegetarian restaurants:

  ABC Cafe, 308 Stewart Ave, [phone]
  - Different ethnic/theme dinner specials every night.

  Cabbagetown Cafe, 404 Eddy St., [phone]
  - One of the best. Mexican and middle eastern food. Vegan friendly.


  Vegetarian friendly:

  Aladdins Natural Eatery, 100 Dryden Road [phone]
  - Middle eastern food.

  Collegetown Bagels, 413 College Ave, [phone]
  - Has a good salad bar, usually at least one vegetarian hot entree.
    Another location at 203 N Aurora only has bagels and bagel
    sandwiches.

  The Chariot, 420 Eddy St, [phone]
  The Nines, 311 College Ave, [phone]
  - Pizza etc. Chariot is very flexible about their menu -- if they can
    put it together in the kitchen, they'll serve it. The Nines is run
    by the same people but I have less personal experience with it.

  Joe's Restaurant, 602 W Buffalo, [phone]
  Little Joe's, 410 Eddy, [phone]
  - Italian. Several choices of vegetarian sauces for pasta, including a
    very nice pesto. LOTS of food. Moderately priced. Packed on
    weekends.

  Just a Taste, 116 N Aurora, [phone]
  - Wine and tapas bar. Many options for tapas (appetizer sized dishes
    -- make a meal from two or three), fewer for entrees. Good spinach
    salad.

  Moosewood, Dewitt Mall, [phone]
  - Of the Moosewood cookbooks fame. Not in the vegetarian restaurant
    category because they serve fish. Overrated in my opinion --
    Cabbagetown is better and cheaper.

  Sangam, 424 Eddy, [phone]
  - Northern Indian. Lunch buffet with at least two vegetarian main
    dishes.

  Thai Cuisine, 501 S Meadow St, [phone]
  - Good selection of vegetarian dishes, moderately formal, extremely
    tasty food. Hot dishes can be made with varying degrees of hotness;
    the "medium" level is about the hottest food I can stand.
  - 'Vegetarian' in Thai means 'substitute tofu for flesh'. Be sure to
    insist on no fish sauce or other animal products.


  Natural food stores:

  Greenstar Co-op, 701 W Buffalo, [phone]
  - Non-members can shop but pay extra.

  Oneonta
  -------

  In the "small" town of Oneonta there are about 20 pizza joints where
  you have no problem ordering pizza sans cheese.

  They have one restaurant that (used to be exclusively) serves
  vegetarian and vegan meals (I had scrambled tofu w/whole wheat toast
  and home fries for breakfast the other day). This place is ALWAYS
  packed.

  There are restaurants that cater to a vegetarian clientelle, and
  rarely look askance when you ask for something sans meat or query them
  about the soup stock, etc. I was at one place a few weeks ago and
  happen to be an acquaintance of the manager. I told him that the
  dinner menu needed more vegetarian, low-fat (not cheese laden) meals.
  The salad bar is excellent there, so at least that's something. He
  said they tried a veggie burger at lunch, and it was wildly
  successful, so they are going to add things to their dinner menu as
  well.



  Rochester
  ---------

  BTB (Blessed Thistle Bakery), 1?? University Avenue
  - Vegetarian. Has a small cafe that is pretty good. The bread is
    excellent!

  Aladdin's, on Monroe
  - Middle-Eastern. Falafel, etc.

  Oscar's, Monroe Ave. near Goodman
  - Though the last time I recommended this place, they had a Hepatitis
    alert!!

  Hong Kong, on Alexander St. between Park and East
  - Will make almost any dish vegetarian. Moo Shu No-Pork is very good.
    Chinese Vegetable with Garlic Sauce is my all time favorite.

  Alexi's, on Monroe near Aladdin's
  - Excellent Veg Pizza and Pasta.

  Alvin Ord's, on Monroe across from Aladdin's
  - Excellent Veg Sandwich. Tofu burgers.

  Big Apple, Park Ave. btwn Culver & Berkley
  - Some excellent veg dishes. Great atmosphere, a little expensive.

  Thai Taste, Mt. Hope plaza
  - _Cheap_ food. They'll do most of their dishes vegetarian on request.
  - 'Vegetarian' in Thai means 'substitute tofu for flesh'. Be sure to
    insist on no fish sauce or other animal products.

  Raj Mahal, corner of Monroe and Alexander

  Wildseeds Bookstore and Cafe, 7?? University Avenue
  - Not a huge selection but pretty good.

  Hmm. I wonder if the Dunkin' Donuts in Brighton, NY (Rochester, NY)
  does things in a special way? They're certified kosher.

  Syracuse
  --------

  It has been extremely frustrating trying to eat vegetarian in
  Syracuse. Eating out is a real problem.  I am not all that crazy about
  salad and I have been actually lectured by people when I ask for
  things that are not specifically on the menu. The two Mexican joints I
  have tried both appear to put bacon in their beans. It is REALLY
  difficult to find Italian foods here that are not laden with cheese
  and/or meat.

  However...

  Vegetarian Restaurants:

  Cafe Margeaux, 317 West Fayette Street, 472-5498
  - Very good, if somewhat expensive. In yuppie area of downtown. Large
    menu. Many vegan dishes. Good soup. Good stuffed squash. Mediocre
    salad bar.
