WALIA ETHIOPIAN CUISINE ??

I have been craving Ethiopian food for literallllyyyyyy MONTHS! I was so happy to find @walia_ethiopian restaurant in San Jose (I found it on the black-owned list I stumbled upon on IG ??) the owners are so kind and the food is bomb.com!! ? Unsure how many vegans know – but Ethiopian food is literally 99% #plantbased with delish lentils, greens and carrots – that are so flavorful boyyyyyy!!! there are so many different cultures and flavors to try so pleaseeeeeee take a chance and give different cuisines a try – I swear it’ll be worth it ??

(p.s) I remember the first time I had injera I literally could not take the sourness and didn’t try Ethiopian food until collage – and once I had injera again I instantly regretted missing out on it for so long ?

LETTUCE FEAST – LA ?

,

Word on the street is it’s #nationalfriedchickenday – but the gag is that vegans #nationalfriedchick’nday is way more juicy and flavorful ?? on the drive up from SoCal my sister and I was on the hunt for some bomb vegan good and thanks to @lettucefeastla we got the best vegan chick’n sandwhich in LA! The flavor is sooo on point – a little Cajun spice with some kick! Kinda reminded me of a vegan Popeyes ? I ordered the Nashville Sando (chick’n, pickles and coleslaw) and Triple OG Sando (chick’n, cheeze, pickles and lettuce) both dipped in their hot “honey” sauce – YUM! Oh and their special sauce is to die for! Y’all know I’m a sauce girl so I was eating it with every bite! Thank you @lettucefeastla for giving my sister and I some bomb food ?

MALIBUS BURGERS ? ‼️‼️ – Oakland CA

This food truck is delicious – the first place to ever give blkandvegan a chance to feature my treats! Honestly, gives me the vegan McDonalds vibe – the pretzel buns, shakes and overall customer experience is unmatched. Be sure to get there early because that line does get long! Since I am moving away, I wont be able to so please take my place and enjoy the delish food! Here’s whats pictured: The Needy Meaty – Impossible 2.0 burger, follow your heart American cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, caramelized onions and lizard sauce on a Pretzel bun! (My personal fav) and The Malibu Burger – Impossible 2.0 burger, follow your heart American cheese, lettuce, tomato, caramelized onion, mamma’s spread & a toasted bun!

GREEN LOTUS TAKEOUT

,

Yes this is my 50th time @greenlotusrestaurant but what can I say ???? flavor is flavor and you can’t beat vegan food that tastes this good ?? Today I brought along @sugarsaltnspice who is practicing the keto diet so finding something that was vegan and keto was quite a challenge but accomplished once we stepped into green lotus! She ordered Vietnamese tofu pho without noodles and replaced with veg (which she says is 7 net carbs which as she puts it “is important for people on keto to know”) For myself and @mindful.mani (my vegan sista) – we ordered the fried oyster mushroom app (SO GOOD AND CRISPY), the shaking beef ( which was the absolute best “beef” I’ve ever had!!!!!) and the bun-hue spicy noodle soup ? with lots and lots of herbs!! This was a home run for vegans and keto-ans alike!! ???? (also the perfect place to celebrate 3k ?- love you guys!!!)
