Order Up by the HEB in Lincoln Heights makes great veggie burgers. AND they have
a long list of extras you can add to your burger to personalize it.  Totally
recommended.

Marie, you said:

"It was not too bad . . . . not as good as the Portabella at Green . . . but ok for fast food."

Can you tell us more about the "Portabella at Green?" I'm not quite sure what you mean by that.

Thanks!

I assume that Marie is referring to Green, the only vegetarian
restaurant in San Antonio:

Hi,



About veggie sandwiches, I have a vague memory of going to Subways a while back and ordering lettuce, onions and tomatoes on their whole wheat bun. For my simple tastes, it wasn't bad.  I forget the price they charged me for it.  The advantage, of course, is that it sure was a quick way to get lunch if you're in hurry.



Thanks.



Jim

Thank you, Shannon, for this information. Sorry that happened to you. That must have been very frustrating, but thank you for taking the time to share it with us.

I had a good veggie burger the other day at EZ's restaurant.

I'm curious at to which restaurant has the best veggie burger in San Antonio.

Any nominations out there?

Thanks!

I'm really just curious about the food and I like that it is
organized for a good cause. Yes, I love Indian and Thai food (next to
Green) and my fave Thai place is Thai Chili on Thousand Oaks and my
fave Indian restaurant is Simi's on Fredericksburg. Highly
recommended!!!

Ha ha!  I thought I was the only veg who didn't like Green.  I was
very unimpressed with their selection - everything is just fake
meat.  They didn't have any meals that were what I consider truly
healthy, whole foods vegetarian.

Regarding Aladdin's, I have been there once and I agree with the
vegetarian combo, although it does have several fried items, so not
the most healthy thing.  They also have a few meatless entrees that
are yummy.  Everyone should definitely check it out - they are still
fairly new but struggling (I recently met the owner) and I would
hate to see one of the few restaurants in SA that offers veg food go
out of business.   Hopefully we can all give them our support and
spread the word!

This may be viewed as a treasonous statement, but I do not care for the food at Greens. It's mostly wanna-be-meat food, like tofu hotdogs. I much prefer wholesome food that does not try to be something it is not. Twin Sisters and the Thai restaurants, for example, work better for me.

I had never heard about this restaurant until you posted. We tried it
a couple of month's back. Although my husband and my friend (non-
vegetarian's) didn't really like it I thought it was really good.
Since I have never had Lebanese food before I wanted a dish where I

Christina,

One thing that SAVS has not done a lot of are family-oriented
events. We have a 3-year old and 5-year old and would be interested
in a potluck that included families. What part of town are you in?

I think it's nigh time that this group has some kind of get together so
all of us can meet and greet other Vegetarians/Vegans. Any suggestions?

Hi, I will be in San Antonio this Saturday, June 14th for some
shopping.  I'm hoping someone can save me from having to "run all over
town".  Does anyone know of a grocery store that has tomato paste in a
tube.  I know I could order it on-line but with the shipping charges,
that's so expensive. Thanks to anyone who can help me.

Hi,
  I am new to San Antonio and I am a vegan teen and my mother is a semi-
vegetarian.  My mother and I are interested in coming to one of your
meetings, and would like to know when and where the next one is.  I
would also like to know if you are teen-friendly?
  THANKS!!
