While I’ve heard slogans like save the cheerleader, save the world or save a cow, eat vegetarian, but saving the world trumps them all !
Hang and I checked out this vegetarian (vegan to be exact) restaurant Au Lac near my apt and these bumper stickers are alll over the walls. This place is really good and cheap too. Once person can get a good filling rice meal for about $2.
The Vietnamese make eating vegetarian a pleasure. I’m not talking about immitation burgers, turke or just a plate of vegetables. What we have here is every immaginable so-called regular dish like sweet and sour fish, fried egg, or fried pork …all made with tofu, mushroom and vegetables. What you can’t believe is that these dishes are so much like the meat substance they portray down to the texture. Even the must-have Vietnamese fish sauce (nuoc mam) is a vegan subsititute.
