One Stop to Mumbai Vegan Guide!
Veganism is on the rise and as more and more people are going vegan each day, the demand and availability for vegan substitute is increasing as well. We all have been through that phase when we were new vegans and we had no idea how to deal with it and it's still the same that new vegans out there struggle to find vegan food in restaurants or aren't aware how to go about it.
Now, there are two ways for you to have a vegan meal. One, Going to a restaurant and ordering a vegetarian meal and asking them not to add any dairy products. You'll find a lot of vegan options there as well, so do not worry. All you gotta do is make sure about the ingredients.
For example: If you order a South Indian dish, you gotta tell them to not add butter, ghee, paneer or cheese. For Chinese you gotta ask them about the sauces that they add and the same goes for different cuisines. That way you just gotta confirm every time you go to a restaurant where they aren't aware of veganism. Now the Second way, Going to a restaurant that serves "Vegan Option", to be precise the ones who have "Vegan" options on their menu.
To simplify your search on Vegan-Friendly Restaurants, I've curated a list of restaurants/services that provides vegan food. Isn't that awesome! ;)
Note: There are a lot of restaurants that have vegan-friendly food they just aren't marked as "Vegan" and so to avoid any kind of misguidance I've only listed the ones who have mentioned "Vegan" on their menu. So that you can have your meal without having to be worried about the ingredients. :)
This post is more like a listicle, as I haven't been to all of these so reviewing it would be unfair, plus I believe every person varies over their taste buds so I would just suggest you to;
Get the hell out and explore veganism! :D :P
Here's the list:
(I'll keep adding as and when new vegan restaurants opens up or the existing ones add vegan options to their menu) ;)
P.S. The reason I have blackened some of the menu is because of the non-vegan options mentioned there and I did not wanted to promote it in any way. Trying to keep it as vegan-centric as possible.
Vegan-Friendly Restaurants
Zomato - The BirdSong
Facebook - BirdSong Organic Cafe
Burma Burma: They haven't put up their menu on zomato though you can find it on their website mentioned below. It's a vegetarian restaurant with a whole lot of vegan options to choose from. :)
Zomato - Burma Burma Fort

The bagel Shop: Here, the options are quite limited when it comes to mentioning "vegan". So there's "Vegan Vibes" Bagel Sandwich and "Soya Shakes". You can still probably ask them to veganize the dish you want to try.

Ray's cafe & Pizzeria: I've been to this place and the ambiance is quite amazing, specially the outdoors. The food is okayish. We had tried the Veganopoly sandwich and Hearty Vegan Pizza. The sandwich was a good one but the pizza was disappointing. Hence I would suggest you to try the sandwich or the salads. Though do try the pizza too if you like. :)

Great post.
ReplyDeleteIt must have taken you a lot of time to compile all these pictures into a well structured post.
Hats off!
Keep up the good work, Sneha!
Also, I would love it if you could give an unbiased rating to the places you have been to (out of the ones you mentioned in this post). Like, a rating out of 10 or 5... It would help your readers a lot in making up their mind. I am saying this because some of the places do not have yummy tasting food (for example Pizzeria's Vegan pizza).
Thank you.
Hi Adarsh, Thank you for dropping by and for your positive words. :) As I've mentioned in the blog that I haven't been to a lot of places from the list and the ones that I did give a visit, I've put up a short description about it. Also I agree with you on the Pizzeria's vegan pizza wasn't all that good and so I've mentioned the same above. Have also mentioned the food that you should give it a shot. Please find it above on the list. Thank you for being one of my reader. Means a lot! :)
