Vegan and Hungry

It’s easy for any question like this to trigger a major eye roll, but, believe it or not, there really are people who ask these kinds of questions in LA.


This city is notorious for obsessing over dietary restrictions. Whether you’re paleo, keto, or raw foods only, a restaurant near you has got you covered. Go to your neighborhood Cafe Gratitude or Sage Bistro, and you’re sure to find your go-to for overpriced vegan meals. 


I’m a vegan myself, so finding cheap food can be a challenge to say the least. Instead of your average plant-based branded place, is there anything else for us diet-cautious foodies?


Fear not, my friends. There are plenty of hole-in-the-walls around LA that are perfect for any food-lover, regardless of how strict his/her gluten intake is. I’m sharing my best secrets with you on where to go when you only have $5 to spend on dinner or want to impress the snobbiest of your gluten-free, dairy-free, no carb pescatarian friends.
