ENJOYING “CREATURE” COMFORTS ON TIOMAN ISLAND, MALAYSIA!

by Caryl Eyers

Since the last Vegan Food Quest update, we’ve spent a week on Tioman island in Malaysia and then journeyed back to Melaka (also in Malaysia). It’s been a thought provoking part of our trip, as well as one that found us eating some seriously good vegan food.

The highlight of our trip to Tioman was getting to experience the beauty of the natural world by swimming with a sea turtle in the wild. This was not an organized trip where a boat drives around looking for wildlife and then drops anchor so tourists can jump into the water to take photos. We were just swimming with our snorkels along the reef, when we saw a green turtle feeding on the coral. (more…)

Located in a dated nondescript strip mall, flanked by Asian restaurants, a nail salon, massage parlor, and insurance agency, Au Lac is a health conscious culinary oasis. As you stand outside of the plain white mall, the darkened door in-front of you, with it’s simple Au Lac sign above, it’s easy to assume this asian inspired restaurant will be much like the other’s in the mall but once you step in the change begins. Serving plant based food with a commitment to offering healthy and delectable bites, the food will wow and delight your senses.

VEGGIN’ OUT AND ABOUT IN MALAYSIA!

by VeganMush Caryl

This last leg of the Vegan food Quest has been busy, busy, busy as we left Thailand, travelled through Malaysia and made it to Bali. Our first stop in Malaysia was Georgetown, Penang, the foodie capital of Malaysia and a UNESCO World Heritage site. We filled up on Southern Indian vegan delights at Woodlands Pure Vegetarian Restaurant and hit the streets of Little India trying freshly cooked lentil vadai from the street vendors.
