Radion (Amsterdam)

A former dental office, Radion is a multi-purpose space where I discovered some stellar vegan bites.

From their website:

“RADION is located in the former dental centre ACTA, better known as Broedplaats ACTA. In the night, RADION is a club with a 24h license and by day, a Vegan Cafe. We regularly host cultural events in our Expo space and Cafe and are a home base to festivals such as Fringe Festival, Front Row and Brainwash Night.”

I really enjoyed the vibe and the carefully curated menu (overly extensive menus scare me).

The bar area
Classic Burger: 12.50

Their Classic Burger is basically a dressed-up Beyond Burger and it really hit the spot after our long flight. I loved the steak frites, which were perfectly crispy.

Ravioli: 14.50 // fritz-apple: 4.80

I’m a huge lover of Ravioli and this pesto-covered concoction hit the spot. The baby tomatoes were roasted on the vine, giving it a needed sweetness to complement the earthy taste of the pesto. Just wish it was bigger!

Mi Dulce Jacalito

Probably my favorite (actually, I can definitively say it is my favorite) aspect of traveling is discovering small vegan businesses and enjoying their food & hospitality. Such was the case with Mi Dulce Jacalito (My Sweet Little Hut). The owner served us himself and was super-friendly and sweet. He told us about how he got […]

Fantasia, Plantasia

Zen vibes and trendy plates are what Plantasia is all about. This spot can be described as “upscale casual“ with a palm fronded, Monstera-flocked stone Buddha as the restaurant’s unofficial mascot. Dimly ensconced overhead mood lighting and an atmospheric softcore electronica themed playlist. It was honestly the nicest restaurant ambience-wise that we visited. I will […]

Te amo, Vegamo

Yes, Mexico City has quite a few vegan options, but we found that it was more convenient and time-saving to go to the same restaurant that we enjoyed before. Thus, we ended up going to Vegamo – Centro many, many times during our weeklong stay. *all prices shown are Mexican dollars. Chewbacca waffle sandwich – […]

Lola’s New Paltz

Hiking sure works up an appetite! After a long day exploring Gertrude’s Nose (and subsequently getting lost in the beginning), we were starved for some good grub. I found Lola’s after a quick search on Happy Cow and was not disappointed. Lola’s has a separate vegan menu, which is always appreciated. They are an order-at-the-counter […]
