Close your eyes and picture this. Wait, if you close your eyes you can’t read about what you’re supposed to be picturing in your closed-eye mind. Picture this as well as you can with your eyes still open: You’re getting hungry and either you don’t know the city you’re in all that well or you’re just not coming up with any good ideas. You try Citysearch or Yahoo Local or you ask your coworkers who still don’t understand that casein-laden soy cheese isn’t vegan. Any-ol’-way, that’s you eating another bagel and peanut butter while just a couple of blocks away sits super-fresh vegan slices. (Shaking fist at sky because you’ve no other direction to shake it…than at yourself!)
So here’s a new option. Veggie Thing taps vegan bloggers from around the country to showcase their favorite dishes. They’re calling us “dictators,” but just between you and me, you can eat what you want without fear of the firing squad. I’m just sharing photos and quickie reviews of stuff Tom and I eat around town. And much like this blog, I’m not getting kickbacks or anything. Total honesty here.
You can submit photos and reviews of your favorites too. So check it out.
you should get them to put portland on the top with the rest of the cities. this is vegan heaven, after all. they misunderestimate (say that with a texas via yale accent) the amount of entries portland will have.
agreed. they’ve got at least 3 portland “dictators,” and none in chicago. and boston? come on.
woo!
Kevin – I’m also hoping Portland will be moved to the top soon. I think it’s just because Citysearch itself is more prominent in cities like Boston, where of course, Portland kicks the ass of in terms of vegan-friendliness.
I am a new Dictator for Veggie Thing. I don’t think my info is up on the site yet but it should be in the next few days. I am totally hooked on this website and I think it is good for people to know what is available in certain cities. I live in Las Vegas and it can be quite a challenge here for vegans. Veggie Thing is awesome.
Portland is now tabbed as a city of choice! ‘Bout time.
