Outstanding Vegan Options in Florida
Minty Z
Miami, Florida

Minty Z is home to one of the most impressive version of seitan wings I’ve ever had. I was blown away, in general, by the extensive and scrumptious menu. I highly recommend tolerating an evening in the brash Coconut Grove for some pretty spectacular vegan dim sum. First, the Cuban Read more…

After a day of convalescence, I was back on the road… but this time with a co-pilot! We would be heading south to the Florida Keys, a neat opportunity to drive off the continuous United States for some tropical beauty. An important stop on the itinerary was the Turtle Hospital Read more…
