The detail
Reliably vegan-friendly cuisines: Indian (dal, sabzi, chana masala), Ethiopian (misir wot, gomen, injera), Middle-Eastern (falafel, hummus, tabbouleh, mujadara), Thai (ask for no fish sauce), Vietnamese (com chay), Italian (arrabbiata, marinara, focaccia).
In non-vegan restaurants, ask for the vegan menu or check for adaptable dishes. HappyCow lists 200 000+ vegan and vegan-friendly restaurants worldwide.
