Hi folks, still enjoying the fun and sun in Florida so no “Vegan News” from me today.
I am the only plant-based eater on this family vacation so I’m trying to find decent eats in very non-vegan (as in not even close) restaurants. We had lunch at the Cherry Pocket Steak & Seafood Shak in Lake Wales, FL.
Not one single thing on the menu was vegetarian. I asked for a salad with no cheese, no meat but tons and tons of vegetables. “We have tomatoes.” Okay.
Lettuce, tomato and crouton salad
It was small but fine.
Later, we met up with Mom and Dad’s golfing buddies for drinks at the golf course, followed by dinner (and dancing – I swear, I danced for hours!) at Duffers Sports Grille in Sebring, FL. I was not happy when I first reviewed the menu but then I had an “aha!” moment. Pizza, hold the cheese!
No-cheese pizza with black olives, green peppers and jalapeno, and mushrooms
Very good! I even let a few omnivores try it. I said, “See, you can actually taste the veggies when they are not all covered up in cow’s milk!” Hehehe.
Last night we had a cookout and dance party at Mom and Dad’s (yes we did). I’ll share those vegan eats with you soon.
In the meantime, we’re off for a beach day!
