by | Jul 3, 2021 | Uncategorized

Animals are friends, not food…

Many cultures emphasize a meatless or plant-based diet. India is a famous example and a perfect destination, especially for vegetarians. Besides India, other (unexpected) destinations make it to this list. Read for yourself…

9. New York City, USA

New York, USA.

New York is the best city for vegans in the US and even at JFK airport, 4.90% of the restaurants have a good vegan or at least vegetarian alternative. In this incredible metropolis, you’ll find plant-based American classics like burgers and milkshakes! On the Lower East Side, you’ll find Marty’s V Burger, which completely reinterprets burgers. For a perfect vegan breakfast, head to Brooklyn, where you’ll find Champs Diner, which takes American breakfast to a whole new level. 

 

8. Peru

Peru is a paradise for quinoa lovers. You will find the grain on the menu of almost all restaurants. The city of Cusco has a great selection of vegan restaurants, the restaurant Green Point has an exceptional selection of vegan dishes, among others you can order smoked sushi and a vegan grill plate. So a trip to Peru is worthwhile for each of you who would like to try new varieties of vegan cuisine and experience the culture of the South American country.

7. Lebanon

Even though lamb and chicken are popular in Middle Eastern cuisine, there are enough vegetables and vegetable dishes on every menu in Lebanese restaurants to keep everyone full. Lebanon is a paradise for hummus and falafel lovers. But chickpeas are also just always a good idea! So order everything that is not meat in a restaurant of your choice and you will fly home full and satisfied.

2. Bali, Indonesia

Bali is a dream for relaxed travelers. Those who want to practice yoga and meditation come here. To live yoga, however, you have to do it without meat or all animal products. In Ubud, you will find a lot of vegetarian restaurants. We recommend the restaurant Sage, where you can find various smoothie bowls and other vegan delicacies. Live the Balinese lifestyle and dive into the vegan cuisine of the island. 

 

1. Jamaica

The Caribbean island is also a true paradise for vegans and vegetarians. The Rasta community eats a 100% plant-based diet and has perfected dishes over many years. The cities of Kingston and Ocho Rios are the best places to go for vegan delicacies. Mi Hungry Whole’-Some Food restaurant offers raw vegan delicacies and interpretations of classics like pizza. The variety of fruits and juices is also another plus for Jamaica. So pack your bags and be sure to plan your next trip here!
