    Here's a vlog from a day in Vancouver. It's mostly the food I ate!
    I got in early before I took off for Penticton and the Okanagan so I got to eat some AMAZING vegan food and catch up with my best friends on the best coast!
    Thanks to the Fairmont Waterfront for hosting me and feeding me, likely the best meal I've had this year so far! Try Arc Restaurant on site with great food from Chef Karan Suri

    Great video! Loved to see the hotel's garden. I hope I can have one one day. Oh, by the way, the name of the pasta is orecchiette which means 'small ear' in italian (or something to that effect). Looking forward to seeing your next adventure :)

    Thanks so much for taking me on your vegan trip to Vancouver! It is my dream to go on holiday with my hubs to a city that is switched on and beautiful like that. We have Nasturtiums overgrown in own back garden, they are really peppery like you said, similar to watercress only more intense. I am so looking forward to seeing the rest of this trip!

    Lauren! Next time you're in Vancouver you should go to Meet on Main. Their food is insane, they do everything vegan like burgers, pasta, and gravy (i could die for the gravy). Also hello I want to meet you please so do a meet up!!

    You were in Vancouver?! The Acorn is my fav!! Also, if you're here again, The Keefer in Chinatown is bomb for drinks and Meet On Main and Abundance Cafe are also highly recommended. You need to do a meet up here Lauren!

    Tried the vegan cheddar cheese from Daiya (shredded version) as a grilled cheese on sourdough !Best grilled cheese ever! and melted like a dream! I usually only ever have cheese on grilled cheese, pizza, burgers, etc. I've never been a big fan of any cheese, and am definitely not the type to eat cheese with crackers. I thought it would taste like soy, cardboard, and some spice, but it blew me away!

    • @LaurenToyota
      @LaurenToyota  8 років тому

      +Yolanda Chen really?! I've mentioned a lot on the vlogs here. APeicalypse Now (pizza etc.), Hogtown Vegan, LIVE, TORI's BAKE SHOP - she has a dinner menu on Thurs, Fri, Sat. It's the BEST!

    @abundanceoferica 8 років тому

    YUM. That meal looked so awesome. Maybe this is specific to Montreal, but there aren't any "fancy" or gourmet vegan restaurants here. Lots of comfort food and fast food options (which is great!), but nothing a little more elevated.

    • @maloriephelan9666
      @maloriephelan9666 8 років тому

      I'm from Montreal!! What are vegan places you recommend ?

    • @abundanceoferica
      @abundanceoferica 8 років тому

      ***** My main recommendation is Sushi Momo! Their "sushi" combinations are SO creative and delectable. I also enjoyed Lola Rosa (vegetarian but wide variety of vegan options). 😊

    • @caro1328
      @caro1328 8 років тому +1

    • @theveganwifecanada
      @theveganwifecanada 8 років тому

      I always order orecchiette pasta because traditionally it is not made with eggs & is guaranteed vegan - I still always ask to make sure.. but it's the best! The name also means "little ear" .. like how cute is that?! :P

  • @POIBOY
    @POIBOY 8 років тому

    #asklauren Do you ever feel nervous/stressed when other people fix you vegan food, when they're not vegan. For example, worrying they forgot butter was not vegan? How do you deal with this?

  • @Babu-kr3cr
    @Babu-kr3cr 8 років тому

    Orichette pasta. It means little ears. You say, "or a ket tay". That food did look exceptionally good.

    background:
    I was on my sister's youtube account a couple months ago and she's a vegetarian trying to go vegan, I am not (i was for about 4 years but eh i still eat veg prob 5/7 days a week not that i count) and she had a bunch of your videos in her history and she would talk about you occasionally and i was like oh god wtf is up with her and up with this youtube gal and so i watched one
    and i watched another
    2 months later I've seen all your videos and have made the cauliflower wings (which actually taste better than actual wings i swear), the crab cakes, have been weirdly turned on to eating toast and jam in the mornings (which i haven't done since i was a teeny bopper), made the buffalo cauliflower sandwich last night for my family, bought that jem red maca almond butter, look for vegan foods when i'm out an about and complain to my sister about missing that old fridge of yours omg
    i'm still an omnivore but i have currently have vegan mayo, almond milk and vegan carrot cake from some bakery my sister went to in my fridge
    much love from mississauga, you've kind of made me a healthier person ;)
