Vegetarian restaurant suggestions for newbies?
Vegetarian restaurant suggestions for newbies?
I know, I know...
I've overlooked this topic plenty of times.
But, as much as My Sweet Amy loves her Tofu Scramble at DD, she still eats pork,chicken & seafood, so there's plenty of options for her on vaca.
However-
Just found out that the newbies we're meeting up with on STJ next week have a vegetarian in the couple. She'll eat seafood, I believe, but will be asking for advice regarding veggie burgers, tofu, etc... in/around Cruz Bay.
There was a GREAT little spot in Wharfside @ 25 ft. passed the Westin Booth across from the G-Spot, kinda', that had an amazing mexican style vegetable breakfast burrito a few years back...can't seem to remember the name,though.
Any help is grately appreciated, and hoping you wonderful folks get to meet Beth & Steve(said newbies...) at the Beach Bar 5/8...
If so, remember to wish them a Happy Anniversary!
Thanks again, and always

i know that banana deck has a veggie burger and rumblines has a pad thai that i thnk they can sub in tofu for the shrimp--basically most everywhere hs seafood options so if your friend eats seafood they should be just fine--I have never had an issue eating on st john--even at skinnys (can you say grilled cheese please?)

yep they do --though the last time i had it, i wasn't too impressed by the skinny veg burger (hence the grilled cheese)Jen East End wrote:I believe Skinny Legs has a veggie burger, also on the Coral Bay end, Sweet Plantains has many vegetarian options. I think their menus are online and change depending on the night of the week.
and sweet plantains has veg options, but you really should go on the curry evening(s)--I was really disappointed in veg options other nights (mind you this was a year and a half ago--so....

I responded on the 'other' forum...but here you go!
Almost anyplace you go will have a handful of menu vegetarian options. And most places are very accommodating with making something special. She won't have any problems
I was at Spyglass a month or so ago for dinner and they had a few really nice vegetarian choices on their menu. I was shocked to see they had a seitan dish.
One place I would tell her to try and go is Forward to Your Roots. They do lunch and it's some really amazing Ital food. I could eat their lentil balls all day long. They are on the street that is next to the basketball courts, across from the post office. It's a little colorful 'shack' on the right hand side of the road. It's not far, just past the basketball courts.
