Restaurants London - Mildreds

This is a great vegan restaurant in the middle of Soho. It can get a little busy, so it is better not to be in a rush. Unfortunately they do not take any bookings.

It is not expensive, no frills and delicious! The main dishes cost around 9 GBP. It is hard for me to say which was my favourite dish. I liked everything I tried from vegetarian burgers which is healthy fast food like food to the mixed mushroom, porcini and ale pie with fries.

Restaurants in Chicago - Handlebar

I went back to Ottawa from Charleston via Chicago so that I would not miss the U2 concert here! Great to be back! U2 concert - no words ... the best concert ever!!

This is a casual bar or pub style restaurant with some seats outside. Most of their menu can be ordered as a vegan dish. I tried the asparagus & portobello gemelli with baby tomatoes, garlic herb white wine sauce, toasted and pine nuts. A nice change to have really fresh ingredients and no over-cooked vegies!

Restaurants in Chicago - Karyn's Cooked

This is a good vegan Restaurant. But in my opinion it still does not beat the good old Chicago Diner's gyros.

I think that the most delicious thing on the menu are the smoothies (vanilla banana or a fruit mix with carob). The smoothies are no cheap around $4.50 each but are definitely worth it.

We also tried the bruschetta, hummus, falafel and meatballs. The flavours were all good. I like the taste of grilled food, but this flavour repeated itself in all dishes we tried and in my opinion the breads were a little too carbonised.

I must say that the double chocolate cake ($7) was a treat. Especially if you can not eat cakes with milk.

Restaurants in Chicago - The Chicago Diner (very recommendable)

This is a great vegetarian/vegan diner. The choices are plentiful and all the food on the menu is delicious.

I would especially recommend the vegan cookie dough shakes ($5.50) and the Gyros ($8.99)! The flavours are great and the dishes are certainly filling.

Service is good and quick.

The decor is simple as one would expect of a diner. But it is especially charming to sit outside in the summer.
