Vegan Food Quest: Veggin’ Out and About In Southeast Asia!

 

VEGGIN’ OUT AND ABOUT IN MALAYSIA!

 

 

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.

VEGGIN’ OUT AND ABOUT IN TRANG, THAILAND!

In terms of finding delicious and inspiring food, Bangkok was a total success but TravelMush (my husband) and I (aka VeganMush) set off on the train to explore the south of Thailand with a niggling feeling that once out of a big international city, it might be harder to get good vegan food.

Trang is an ordinary Southern Thai town and I wanted to see how hard it might be to be a vegan in this sort of place.

So here begins the Vegan Food Quest, my search for vegan food around the globe. I’m traveling with my husband, who after many years of living with me has become somewhat of an expert in seeking out of food I can eat. So, he’s been recruited to be in charge of logistics, which plays to his strengths of being super organized, observant and adventurous all at the same time. After months of planning and packing and a few weeks of emotional goodbyes, we left our home in England and flew to Bangkok where as soon as we stepped off the train from the airport, we were bombarded by all sorts of smells and sounds from the busy streets which were packed with people cooking food, selling their wares and going about their daily business. Its an experience that I will never tire of.
