another thing they don't mention is " no msg " which is a tough request for

prepared Chinese and Asian foods.

 

when I go out to eat, I do as much research as I can on the restaurant before I

go there. I want to make sure I have something to eat. I've been turned away

from restaurants that say " sorry we do not have any veggie dishes for you " .

 

Also, I don't have to have my friend sit thru all my " questions " at the

restaurant.

 

(I met a vegan guy that took 10 minutes to ask all his questions. It was a pain

for his wife to go thru this whenever they went out to eat. By the way, they

broke up)

 

Lastly, I recommend, giving a bigger tip if they went out of their way. And I

thank you with a smile.

 

Better yet, go support a vegan/veg restaurant.

We know we always cant' if we have to socialize or have a business meeting.

 

I noticed for big hotels like the Marriot, they will give you vegan meals like:

pasta with veggies. Or rice with Veggies for your meal. At times they look

better than my neighbor's dead " steak " sitting right next to me.
