This is late Nov 2009. There are many vegetarian restaurants from upmarket, European style and local canteens to greasy streetmarket and pavement stalls. Some claim outright to be vegan, others are not sure what vegan means. As the scene is all tied in with local Buddhist roots, it has a very different feel from Western Buddhism. Taipei is a bit of a mess really, I could not recommend it as a holiday venue. But there are a lot of interesting foods available. Thanks to Quarry Girl for this ongoing investigation and discussion. It has made me think twice about eating fake meats. Hi …
