Sauvignon Blanc (2013) – Trump Winery

The 2013 Sauvignon Blanc from Trump Winery is an excellent wine...as I'm sipping this wine away, I can only think about buying more bottles to keep a stock in the cellar.  This wine is easy to drink and will attract both the wine curious and the connoisseur.  The best thing is that this is a vegan-friendly wine since it is unfiltered and fined with bentonite.

VLife

A few months ago while visiting New York, I discovered VLife, a Vegan restaurant in the Chelsea area of Manhattan, New York.  I had an incredible experience with the food being flavorful and simply put, an easy vegan bite while in Manhattan.  As far as drinks, we settled for two Thai bubble teas, which were delicious!  Regarding the main entrees, we had the Amazing Avocado, a gluten and soy free wrap; and the Bodacious Burger, which came with a soy patty, tapioca cheese and vegetables.  We were also recommended by their staff to try the V-Cheddar Poppers, which were completely unhealthy, but super delicious!  Definitely a must try in this restaurant.

Imagine Vegan Café

I decided to go have a bite or two at Imagine Vegan Café while visiting Memphis, Tennessee.  I liked this restaurant so much that I went twice, the second time to satisfy my cravings for southern-comfort food, some good ‘ole biscuits and gravy.  In essence, everything in the menu is vegan despite some of their non-vegan names or descriptions.  This is a restaurant that must be visited several times to be able to enjoy the large amount of food items in the menu.  So when I go back to Memphis, I will go back to Imagine Vegan Café and sample more vegan food and so should you!  If you are in the mood to enjoy a vegan atmosphere and delicious food with a hint of Memphis, then make sure to visit Imagine Vegan Café.

The Crazy Noodle

During my recent trip to Memphis, Tennessee, I stopped by The Crazy Noodle, a Korean-style noodle shop located in Midtown Memphis.  We had the Veggie Jeon (be sure to ask for it without eggs), and then for the main course, we had the Vegetable Ramen and the Miso Ramen.  Truly delicious!  All in all, this was a fantastic place to eat, chat, and enjoy some good Memphis-style ramen.

Loving Hut - Cincinnati

I recently drove by Cincinnati and decided to do a simple search looking for vegan eateries in or around Cincinnati, Ohio.  To my surprise, one my search options was a Loving Hut, one of the worldwide chains of vegan restaurants.  After perusing the menu, we ordered the grilled Spring Rolls, grilled dumplings, the Vegan Macaroni & Cheez, Vegan Sloppy Joe, the Japanese-style Udon noodles and the gluten-free house salad.  By far, my favorite item was the Vegan Macaroni & Cheez, which was simply delicious! We almost worried it was the real thing, but then we came back to our senses and realized we were at a Loving Hut and thus vegan food.

Vegan Hors d’oeuvre with Polenta and Tostones

This is a perfect vegan hors d’oeuvre for when you have guests.  The recipe uses fried plantains (tostones), tofu, avocado, black beans and polenta. The recipe should take about 20 minutes to prepare and about 10 minutes to cook. The recipe was inspired from a recipe submitted by angloesque via allrecipes

Wine pairing: If you plan to pair this recipe with wine, please omit the garlic from this hors d’oeuvre, as it will take away from the wine experience. I recommend a white wine, such as a dry Riesling, a white Zinfandel, a Gewurztraminer or a Virginia Viognier. Like I said, stay away from the garlic on this one!

Not all wines are vegan friendly?

While wine is made from fermented grapes or other fruits, some wines are not vegan because of the clarification and stabilization process, specifically the fining agents used in the process.
