There is so much Vegan Food in Europe this site is almost POINTLESS! We can't even fit in the amount of fantastic restaurants in every city! I'm not sure if my goal of providing pics / videos & reviews is even worthwhile??? Vegan Food is on every corner, in every block. The problem is finding HEALTHY VEGAN FOOD. The same problem I had in Los Angeles is that Vegan Food is often SO FILLED WITH FATS AND OILS it doesn't matter how many miles I walk a day on my trip if I'm just filling my fat cells right back up! I've gotten a little lax in requesting oil free, but I'm renewing my vigor and will continue to attempt to order healthy meals at vegan restaurants that are high in starch and low in fat! Its one thing to be vegan and another thing to be a healthy vegan and set a good example for those around us, if everyone switches to the current mainstream vegan diet we'll loose in the long run because everyone will gain weight and be unhealthy. We need to reform Vegan Food into a healthy low fat tasty starch based diet so people making the switch not only see how easy & inexpensive it is, but also instantly notice how much better they feel!

fear not, I had an amazing oil free lunch yesterday at probably the healthiest restaurant in Italy!

I don't know that I would say the majority of the vegan/vegetarian restaurants I've been to are unhealthy... actually I feel like I'm eating pretty healthy when I eat at a vegerarian restaurant. But maybe that's because I mostly order salads and things like that. I would really hate to see vegan/vegetarian food start to become greasy. But it's true that vegetarianism is becoming more 'popular' and therefore restaurants will maybe start to cater to people's liking for junk food or greasy food

Please don't stop

I'm travelling to Florence in a couple of weeks and I'm very glad I found this Forum. I'm not so bothered about video but the pictures are interesting (and sometimes mouthwatering) illustrations of the descriptions of the food; as well as being helpful for locating places. Thank you for 'path-finding'

Florence is the best city in all of Europe, enjoy! The vegan eats are plentiful and fun! Just don't go to that one restaurant I give a bad review to!
