Review: Several vegetarian and vegan choices and non-vegetarian choices. A long wait for your food, but always worth it. Very reasonable prices. Favorites--Lentil Soup, Thai Burrito with Peanut Sauce, Stir-Fry Vegetables over Hash Browns. Tofu and Textured Protein available as substitute for most items. Wait Persons know what Vegan Food is.

Seattle

Name: ARAYA'S VEGETARIAN PALACE
Location: 4732 University Way NE, University District
Price Range: College students can afford this.
Review: Wonderful Thai food! One side of the restaurant serves strictly Vegan food. The other serves meat. Yes, you can sit together on either side if one of you is a vegan and the other is not. They are "pure" in their cooking methods--cooking vegan items separately from meat and dairy or egg items to include utensils. Super Lunch Buffet Tuesday - Saturday!
5/1/2002: The restaurant has been exclusively vegan for years now. The buffet is available every day but Sunday from 11:30-3:30 (and sometimes later), and they open at around 5pm on Sunday. The buffet price is $5.99 - extremely reasonable considering the variety of delectable food they serve. My two favorite items off the menu? The spring rolls and the panang curry. Mmmm.

Name: Bamboo Garden
Location: 364 Roy St. in Seattle, WA #206-282-6616
Type of Food: Chinese Food
Price Range: Inexpensive (Same price as Chinese food anywhere else. Remember how much food you always get)
Review: Yes! Finally! Craving Chinese food, but afraid to order because they might use chicken broth? Bamboo Garden's 120 items are totally vegan! Well except for the fortune cookies, which do have eggs. The menu will freak you out. The menu lists everything as poultry, seafood, pork, & beef, but it is not! The fake meats are made from vegetable protein. The service is wonderful & quick. My favorite right now is the Sesame "Chicken". Here is a review.

Name: Green Cat Cafe
Location: 1514 E. Olive Way in Seattle, WA #206-726-8756
Type of Food: A variety of food..pasta, nachos, sandwiches, etc..
Price Range: Inexpensive & a lot of food
Review: It is all vegetarian, but not all vegan. I believe any item on the menu can be ordered vegan. My favorite right now is pasta w/ pesto sauce & garlic bread. And nachos (blue corn chips, chili, crumbled crispy tofu, & salsa). Lots more to choose from than just pasta & nachos. Here is a review.
