- just outside of Summertown. They call themselves a cooperative
- nondenominational religious community. Among the businesses located
- on The Farm is 'The Store' which is a small store that sells
- vegetarian food, tie-dyed t-shirts, and non-vegetarian marshmellows
- (the only non-vegetarian item I could find). Also located on The
- Farm is a soy dairy, but there are no restaurants or other places
- where one can get a meal. You can stay at their campground for $5 a
- night. The Farm is an interesting place for a quick visit, but it
- did not meet my expectations. To get there, take route 20 west just
- out of town to Drakes Lane, go a mile or so to a fork in the road,
- take the right side fork, it will take you to the gate into The
- Farm.

-
- Vegetarian Restaurants:
-
- Kalachandji's, 5430 Gurley Ave, 827-6330
- - Hare Krishna lacto-vegetarian restaurant. They serve an all-you-can-
- eat buffet twice a day. Dinner's ~$8, lunch is cheaper. BTW:
- Kalachandji's is a favorite with visiting veggy musicians, many of
- whom have left autographed pictures and letters of recommendation
- to be displayed in the lobby. Among them are Crissie Hynde(sp?),
- Annie Lennox, and the B-52's.
-
- Paisley Palace, 6106 Luther Lane at Preston, 368-2456
- - Really good veggy-Indian cuisine. Now only open for lunch. Lunch
- buffet Mon-Sun 11:30am-2:30pm. Order off the menu until 3:30pm.
- This place is great, please go there!
-
-
- Vegetarian-Friendly Restaurants:
-
- Phil`s Cafe, 2815 Elm Street, 761-8400
- - Not strictly veggy, but close. Basically Tex-Mex, with lots of
- interesting items like black bean nachos, and spinach enchilladas.
- Good budget food. Open late.
-
- La Suprema Tortilleria, 2 locations:
- 7630 Military Parkway, 388-1244
- ???, 506-0988
- - Vegan? Organic. Macrobiotic. Tex-mex. 11 flavors of chips &
- tortillas. Recipient of 8 awards.
-
- Whole Foods Market, 2218 Lower Greenville Avenue, 824-1744
- - Natural food store with small restaurant attached. Vegan friendly.
- Great salads and entrees. Highly recommended. Expensive.
-
- Fresh Choice, soon to open (if not open already).
- - All-you-can-eat salad bar, pasta bar, etc. Very clean. Many vegan
- options but the marinara pasta sauce is not one of them. Their
- nutritional information pamphlet lists all menu items and it even
- has a column that indicates those that are vegan. Great place even
- for those who normally don't like eating salads.
-
- Thai Soon, on lower Greenville Avenue
- - 'Vegetarian' in Thai means 'substitute tofu for flesh'. Be sure to
- insist on no fish sauce or other animal products.
-
- Kebab 'n' Kurry, 401 N Central Expwy, 231-5556
- (N Central Expwy just north of Beltline - west side)
- - Above average Indian fare. This place has recently changed chefs and
- has suffered as a result. Moderately expensive.
-
- Shalimar, 35 Richardson Heights Shopping Center, 437-2858
- (N Central Expwy just south of Beltline - west side)
- - South Indian, great Masala Dosa.
-
- El Gallo De Oro, on Maple
- - Hole in the wall Mexican/Guatamalan. Mostly omnivorous, but good
- Chile Rellenos and beans.
- - My memory of this place suggests to me that the food touches no
- fats other than the purest lard. I'd caution vegetarians to be
- careful. The owners/employees tend to speak little English.
-
- Akbar (at Northeast Corner of COIT & Beltline)
- - Indian food.
-
- India Palace, 12817 Preston Road (corner LBJ), 392-0190
- - Touted as the "best" Indian food in Dallas. Typical, but very good
- Indian food. They have a vegetarian thali plate (ovo-lacto), this
- is a full meal for one price. Expensive.
-
- Bombay Cricket Club (Downtown Dallas)
- - This is the sister restarant to India Palace. Not as good and more
- expensive.
-
- ZuZu, 6 locations in the Dallas/Plano area
- - Very fresh Tex-Mex food. They have a bean burito plate that you can
- order sans dairy. I order with double rice, corn tortillas and a
- salad. They have the best chips and salsa in Dallas. Inexpensive.
- - ** Note: They may use chicken broth to make their rice.
-
- Cafe Greek, SW corner LBJ and Preston
- - Vegetarian platter comes with humus, baba ganoush, falafel,
- spanikopita, tabouli, a salad (I ask them to 86 the feta cheese)
- and bread. Good, but moderately expensive.
-
- Sinbad's Palace, Skillman and Abrams, 340-4445
- - Middle-eastern food. Their "1st Voyage" is a vegetarian meal of
- baba ganoush, falafel, salad, couscous, pita bread, and baklava
- (delicious). Ask them to go light on the oil. If your are lucky, you
- might get to see the belly dancer! Moderately expensive.
-
- River Nile, 7001 Fair Oaks, 363-1128
- (just east of upper Greenville near Park Lane)
- - Ethiopian. There are two vegetarian dishes on the menu. Both are
- good. You eat with your hands using large rounds of flat bread to
- scoop up the food. The waitstaff is slightly incompetent. I
- recommend you pay with cash. Inexpensive.
-
- The Dream Cafe, 2828 Routh Street, 954-0486
- (near Downtown in the Quadrangle)
- - Very popular with the yuppie crowd, but casual. Good breakfasts.
- Moderately expensive.
-
- Joey Tomato's, 3232 McKinney Avenue, 754-0380
- - Italian food. Very good veggie pizza. Made with grilled veggies.
- They don't think you are weird for ordering without cheese (it's on
- the menu that way). Inexpensive.
-
- Cafe Panda, 7909 Inwood Road, 902-9500
- - Chinese. They have a great vegetarian egg roll and veg moo shu that
- you can order without eggs. Very good. I don't recommend the cold
- noodles (they are frozen and taste that way). This is a classy
- restaurant. Expensive.
- - ** Note: Their "vegetarian" soup is made with chicken broth. I had
- asked about this specifically before and they told me it wasn't,
- but the last time I was there the "vegetarian" soup had chicken
- in it!
-
- If you're stuck with a group of carnivores who want to go to
- one of the popular places, Tia's (Tex-Mex), Chili's (Southwestern)
- and Houstons and TGI Fridays (steak/burgers) all offer veggie
- alternatives, though the best dish at Houstons, the California Salad
- is off the menu but still available.

- many restaurants that have at least a few vegetarian dishes, and most
- of those that don't are very accommodating about whipping up something
- special.
-
- Public transit is really decent in Seattle and free in the core of
