About the Website:
The idea for this site came out of a need for a personal resource for finding restaurants that cater to the needs of vegans. Being a vegan myself, I realized one day that life would be that much easier if only I had a way to find out what I could eat, and where I could eat that would cater to my dietary and ethical standards, without having to contact a restaurant.
I was tired of asking to speak to the manager, or the head chef, and convincing hourly employees to search for the ingredients to the hamburger buns to see if I could even GO to the restaurant, let alone enjoy myself, and not spend more money than I was bargaining for.
This is a guide for Austin newcomers, for tourists, and for people that have lived here their whole lives.
My primary goal is to simply build this website, and have enough content to where it's helpful to generalizing where in Austin to eat. Slowly, though, I'll be stacking up the restaurants and detailing out menus to specify exactly how to order at certain restaurants so that your food will be made animal-product-free.
