First off, Knoxville, TN:
The TomatoHead restaurant.....really great place to eat. They will veganize for you, but a lot of the food is already vegetarian and they DO have vegan cheese. They have some great local/regional beer on tap. And a daily vegan cupcake! (oh and cookies, haha).
The Kepner melt w/soup of the day (vegan):
The vegan cupcake of the day:
Veg-O-Rama. New vegetarian restaurant near our friend's house. They also have local beer on tap:
Noodle Salad (vegan):
Chili Dog w/soup of the day(chili dog is vegan, soup was not):
Special of the Day SO TASTY! (sweet potato/bl. bean tacos, vegan):
Then off to Cincinnati, OH:
Myra's Dionysus(near the university). WAY too many choices. We ate there twice in one day! Excellent for vegans:

LUNCH at Myra's:
Gazpacho Soup & Green Pea Soup (vegan):
Spicy Black Beans & Gado Gado (both vegan):

That should keep you drooling for a while, until I post the next batch :)
All three of these restaurants were delicious....so if you're ever in those areas, definitely give them a try!
Eat smart,

It DOES looks yummy. Eventually Ryan and I want to get to Cincinnati, so I will keep this place in mind for sure! Good eats!
ReplyDeleteWow! All that food stuff looks try-worthy--so glad you are able to find vegan eats on the road! That is a great comfort for you I am sure!
ReplyDeleteWait, how is coffee local in Cincinnati? I think it grows in, you know, Indonesia, South America...:)
ReplyDeleteI will definitely try Calhoun's if I'm in the area, it looks great.

Your new template looks cool !! All the dishes truly made me drool ...
ReplyDeleteNoelle: there's also a great place called Melt Eclectic (or something like that) in Cinci....they have good veg/vegan stuff too. Didn't get there this time around.
ReplyDeleteKelly-yeah, sometimes it's VERY difficult, but some places are just more vegan friendly than others, luckily!
Dianne-yeah, haha...I meant locally ROASTED :) Calhoun St does have good restaurants...there was a Middle Eastern place next door too, but didn't get to try it.
Shabitha-thanks! Tried to fool around with it yesterday a bit.
