List of vegetarian restaurants
List of Vegetarian Restaurants is a comprehensive compilation of dining establishments worldwide that primarily serve vegetarian and often vegan cuisine. These restaurants cater to individuals who follow a vegetarian diet, abstaining from the consumption of meat and sometimes other animal products.
Overview[edit | edit source]
Vegetarianism is a dietary practice characterized by the abstention from consuming meat. This includes red meat, poultry, seafood, and the flesh of any other animal. Some vegetarians also avoid by-products of animal slaughter. Vegetarian restaurants cater to these dietary preferences by offering a menu that is entirely, or predominantly, composed of vegetarian dishes.
Types of Vegetarian Restaurants[edit | edit source]
There are several types of vegetarian restaurants, categorized based on the specific dietary practices they cater to:
- Vegan restaurants: These establishments serve only vegan food, which excludes all animal products, including dairy, eggs, and honey.
- Lacto-vegetarian restaurants: These restaurants serve dishes that include dairy products but exclude eggs and meat.
- Ovo-vegetarian restaurants: These establishments serve dishes that include eggs but exclude dairy and meat.
- Lacto-ovo vegetarian restaurants: These restaurants serve dishes that include both dairy and eggs but exclude meat.
- Pescatarian restaurants: These establishments serve dishes that include fish but exclude other types of meat.
