JournalNow.com: Veggin' Out

Contrary to a popular stereotype, vegetarians are not all champions of self-denial, pathetically munching a sprout on the sidelines while watching the omnivores have all the culinary fun. Instead, the vegetarians we know love good food and know where to get it. They aren't about to settle for a bland meal, either at home or at a restaurant.

A Feast to be Thankful For

The Triangle Vegetarian Society is now taking reservations for its 2009 Thanksgiving feast, with seatings from 11:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Cafe Parizade in Durham. Also, for the first time this year, there will be a 6 p.m. seating at Spice Street restaurant in Chapel Hill.

The society believes that this is the largest vegatarian Thanksgiving celebration in the country. After attending last year, I can certainly believe that! It was crowded—but a friendly, enjoyable crowd. And the food was delicious—and all vegan. It is certainly worth the cost ($26.50 for adults who aren’t members of the Triangle Vegetarian Society) and the drive. In fact, people from as far away as Illinois have already made their reservations for this year. If you go, be sure to try the lime-marinated seared seitan!
