Guest guest Posted April 26, 2001 Report Share Posted April 26, 2001 Hi Lisa, I used to live there. You may do well at the Buffets in some of the major casinos. They usually have a good salad bar with lots of fruits and veggies and many buffets have different ethic cuisines throughout, you can usually get the Asian section to make you a vegan stir fry. My favorite place to eat was the Mediterranean Cafe on the Southwest corner of Maryland Parkway (about 3 blocks east of the Strip) and Flamingo. For a great, quick falafel pita, I liked the House of Kabob on the southeast corner of Maryland Parkway and Flamingo. If you are in a bind, and not opposed to a little fast food, Del Taco beans are vegan, but their rice is not. For fast food, it is pretty healthy and you can find them anywhere. A lot of the casinos also have some pretty decent Italian or Chinese restaurants, you can usually get something vegan there. Vegas is all about the money, so there aren't many little independent restaurants, but the casino food is okay. Since I left, I heard there was a good raw foods restaurant on Flamingo somewhere east of the strip like near Pecos, but I'm not sure where. Be prepared to see lots of advertisements for prime rib and lobster deals and you'll see lots of unhealthy people and tons of smokers. But it is a fun place. Are you going to visit or to live there? Let me know how your experience went. Hope this helps a little, Linda >Does anyone know Las Vegas area?

Guest guest Posted November 13, 2003 Report Share Posted November 13, 2003 Kyndra, Welcome to the list. Glad to have you with us. To help with a local raw food support group try talking to the folks at Raw Truth. I'm sure you're familiar with them. I've eaten there when in Las Vegas. They should have contacts for local raw foodists and groups. For others on the list looking for local support groups, try this link: http://www.livingnutrition.com/potlucks.html Just look up your state. There's nothing listed for Nevada (sorry!)

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Sara...you still on here???? hey shari... there's at least person on this list who lives in vegas "Shari" Apr 21, 2005 12:18 PM Las Vegas Next week I'm going to be a vegan in Vegas and was wondering if anyone knew of any places that did vegan food particularly on or near the Strip. I've done a bit of searching online and it seems pretty poor with any vegetarian cafes being a few miles away. I'm only gonna be there a couple of days and won't have a car so will be right on the Strip for most of the time (or at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino). I read that some places do a 'veggieburger' but would these be vegan? Any info much appreciated.<3Shari Black Velvet To send an email to - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
