A Vegan Taste of Finland (Helsinki) Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Travel

While in Finland for the release of Everyday Happy Herbivore in Finnish, I had  a good bit of downtime to scope out the local vegan eats.

As I mentioned in my previous Finland post, I met up with a few Finnish bloggers for a lovely vegan breakfast:

The restaurant Silvoplee (a play on the French, s'il vous plait) also had two vegan cakes for us to try:

They're usually only open for lunch, but they have a large vegetarian …

Finland Book Tour and Release Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Travel

A few weeks ago, I was in Finland for the Helsinki Book Fair, where the Finnish version of Everyday Happy Herbivore was released. 



On Friday, I attended a vegan breakfast at Silvoplee (a play on the French, s'il vous plait) with Finnish food bloggers. Silvoplee is a popular vegetarian restaurant in Helsinki and they created a special vegan breakfast spread for our meeting.

Scott and I landed in Dublin around 8:00 a.m. and thought we'd forage for fare in the food court, not knowing how long it would take to get the rental car, find the hotel, and then *fingers crossed* find something plant-based to eat in the city. Scott operates under the "eat now for famine may come later" theory.

A Vegan Taste of Tahoe (Part 2) Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Travel

Scott, the pugs, and I took a trip to Tahoe last weekend, and this is part 2 of the picture show.

First, the food:

After my first blog post, a Herbie sent me a message saying Lake Tahoe Pizza Company had vegan pizza and it was not to be missed. Since Scott LOVES pizza, we went. Not only did they have several vegetable-vegan pizza options, they had an awesome salad bar that I went to town on.

Scott ordered the …
