New York City is a sprawling metropolis that’s overflowing with frenetic energy, and sometimes it can get overwhelming. I like to de-stress and make the city seem a bit more manageable by relaxing at Caravan of Dreams, an organic and kosher vegan restaurant in the East Village. Venturing into this dimly lit restaurant when a live band is playing can seem like a breath of fresh air, forcing me to focus on the present moment and enjoy a meal while forgetting all of that craziness outside.
Vegans, vegetarians, and those who are interested in switching to a cruelty-free lifestyle are raving about Vegan Cuts. Lately, this cruelty-free subscription box and online marketplace company has been offering some special boxes like the Cheese and Meat box. Now, they’ve come out with another one-time box – the Vegan Camping Box! This one is perfect for embarking on outdoor adventures and spending nights in a tent under the stars.
How cool would it be for vegetarians and vegans to have access to a meatless fast-food restaurant? What if we could order items that are similar to those at McDonalds, Taco Bell and Pizza Hut, but in a totally meatless fashion? Such a dream has arrived! Amy’s Kitchen is set to open an all-veggie drive thru in Rohnert Park, California this July.
As customers ask for whole foods options that are free of junk, more restaurants are stepping up to meet the demand with quality food. Chipotle, one of my favorite places to get a quick bite, is leading the pack here. A couple of months ago, the company announced it would no longer serve foods made with GMOs. Now, the Mexican food chain is testing a new, all-natural tortilla that contains only four ingredients!
I’ve been writing mostly about food on this blog, but now it’s time for my first drink review! The subject is Moonlit Matcha Organic Japanese Green Tea, a high-quality product from a UK-based company called Hybrid Herbs. Their commitment to providing healthful products is inspiring. As their website states, they are “delighted to bring you Highest Quality, All Natural, Medicinal Mushrooms, Tonic Herbs And Superfoods YOU CAN TRUST.” The company is also committed to selling products that are 100% vegan and cruelty-free.
Vegan Cuts, the cruelty-free company that sells vegan goodies and offers monthly snack and beauty box subscriptions, has come out with a brand new box. Their one-time Cheese and Meat Box is packed with cruelty-free “cheesy” & “meaty” essentials that will have any omnivore coming back for more than one bite!
I have some good news for fellow chocoholics — the company that I’m a Brand Ambassador for, ALOHA, just released a new Superfood Chocolate Collection in several cool flavors! This chocolate bar tastes great and contains HUNDREDS of nutrients from superfood greens.
A few months ago, I wrote a post about how much I loved my Vegan Cuts Snack Box subscription. I have been a subscriber for more than a year, and along the way, I have discovered new favorite snacks that make it easy to maintain a plant-based diet. Now, since I recently became a Brand Ambassador for Vegan Cuts, I thought I’d share what’s inside my monthly boxes.
“We envision our CleanCandy® assortment replacing the artificial junk in candy dishes and on reception desks across the country — at doctors’ offices, restaurants, hotels, schools, and homes.”
I live in NYC now, but Cincinnati is my hometown and one of my favorite cities in America. Each time I visit, I go to Melt Eclectic Cafe for lunch or Sunday brunch. It’s a favorite among locals and is located in a cool part of town called Northside. Though it’s very vegan and vegetarian friendly, the cafe also serves meat and dairy cheese, so its versatility makes Melt a wonderful spot to go to with my friends and family who aren’t veggie like me. We can all eat in harmony!
