Vegan-In

So we have returned from our fun trip to Austin.  We had an amazing time at the festival even though the Avett Brothers had to cancel at the last minute.  The camping areas at the festival were a little rocky, but beautiful all the same.  We did our best to be environmentally conscious while we were there.  The festival had recycling set up, and most of the vendors were using biodegradable plastic cups, so that was great.  As for us, we finally used those Biodegradable/Compostable garbage bags we had been saving.  We also brought our own reusable water bottles to cut down on our trash.

While in Austin we were excited knowing that there are several all Vegan places to eat.  

We really wanted to visit Iggi's Texatarian and The Vegan Yacht, 

Andrea and Me in Austin. We are facing Iggi's in disappointment at it not being open. 

both of which we had read and heard good things about.  Unfortunately, due to our limited amount of time actually spent in the city we could not catch them during their hours of operation.  Instead we ended up checking out Casa de Luz.  

They feature an all Vegan, organic, macrobiotic menu.  Our meal included a drink, soup, salad, and entree.  It was a little pricey at $11 per person, but well worth it.

On our way to Austin,  we passed through Houston, TX and were very excited to finally have a chance to check out the Loving Hut .

For those of you not familiar, the Loving Hut is a 100% Vegan chain restaurant.  I can not tell you how exciting it was to not have to pick apart the menu to find which items I can eat.

EVERYTHING on this menu is Vegan, down to the dessert menu which includes cheesecake.
