Podcast 109: Around the globe in 28 minutes
Saturday, 16 August 2008

 Colleen and I (John) discuss many a far off place in today's podcast. First, we thank David from Atlanta (Hotlanta!) for sending us two Cosmo's Vegan Shoppe t-shirts. In order to receive these t-shirts we answered a question (posed by David) on podcast 107 about the "un-vegan" things that we do. I still wear a 15-year-old leather belt fairly regularly and Colleen sometimes kills cockroaches.

There is also some discussion about "Korean Night". This is an evening where friends get together to try out the Korean recipes from The Asian Vegan Kitchen cookbook. I am making Hodo Kwaja (Korean Walnut Cakes) and Colleen (via her husband) is making Bibim Bop (Spicy Rice).

 Next on the world tour is Argentina and Uruguay. There is good vegan eating to be had in these two countries which are known for steak. I highly recommend the following three restaurants in Buenos Aires: Verde Llama, Krishna and Bio. Also, you can eat well in Montevideo and specifically at Bambu. This just proves that there are vegetarian options in parts of the world where you wouldn't expect it. Heck, there's even a vegetarian organization in Argentina and vegan graffiti.

Colleen discusses her love of the raw vegan restaurant, Cilantro in San Diego, and her tempeh salad of which she is equally fond.

This week's question of the week: what are you most looking forward to at this year's food fair? My answer: Brendan Brazier. Colleen's answer: the raw burger in the Food Fair's world café.

This week's podcast is a grade-11-belt-sized 28 minutes.
