The SMVO Got Lost in LA!

Yes we did, more than once even! However, we still found our way to My Vegan. This is an all vegan restaurant in Pasadena, CA. http://my-vegan.com/

We first went there Monday night after spending the day at Six Flags. We were incredibly hungry and ready for some awesome vegan food. We saw that My Vegan had received 5 cows on happycow.net and wasn't too far from our hotel.

When we first arrived and saw the menu we couldn't believe all of the different choices. We decided tostart off with an appetizer, chicken nuggets. These were very yummy and the dipping sauce was perfect.

For her main meal Vanessa chose the Vegan Slam Pancake. This comes with 2 large pancakes with vegan margarine, 3 pieces of fake bacon and a good sized serving of tofu scramble. This was deeeelicious!!

I decided to have 2 appetizers, fried vegetable dumplings and BBQ tofu. The dumplings were very good! I was happily surprised that they weren't too fried, just right. The BBQ tofu was delicious as well. I would love to see it in a bun for a sandwhich!


We enjoyed the food and service here so much that we decided to go back the following day for lunch. We started with some cheesy potatoes. These were very tasty and cooked just right.
For the main meal I ordered the Vegan Slam Pancake and Vanessa opted for the orange chicken. The chicken pieces were larger than the usual orange chicken you find at vegan restaurants. This is also served with a large serving of brown rice.

Our overall experiences with My Vegan were very positive. The food was always served quickly and tasted great. The servers and other staff were very polite and attentive. I would definitely recommend My Vegan to my friends, and strangers. They are open Sun-Thurs 10:30am-9:30pm and Fri-Sat 10:30am-10:00pm. They also deliver and do take out orders.
