I'll be in Downtown Denver for a few days in January, and as the title says, I'll be looking for chow of the non-animal variety. Now, I'm not a strict vegan -- I'll eat Thai food, which probably has fish sauce in it -- but dairy products are out. I've already located the nearest Whole Foods (Capitol Hill), but can anyone point me to chowish places that are nearby? It'd be great if there was an alternative to Whole Foods I could go to, as well. City, O' City sounds promising, so that's already on my list. Many thanks in advance! A. Thu Dec 11 16:31:36 -0800 2008 22831 awurrlu 1 4240811 Watercourse, which is the sister restaurant to City O' City. Excellent food, although I've not tried the vegan options. www.watercoursefoods.com Thu Dec 11 21:04:11 -0800 2008 4240205 168859 itri 2 4240828 Watercourse is delicious and I think they have vegan cake too. Have you tried looking things up on happycow.net? Thu Dec 11 21:13:02 -0800 2008 4240811 247863 CaseyDiaz 1 4241749 I third the watercourse. At a place like that, you could probably ask your server for other ideas, too. Fri Dec 12 09:02:32 -0800 2008 4240205 216969 LurkerDan 2 4247529 I'll add Watercourse to the list. Thanks! Unfortunately, happycow.net only suggested Whole Foods for a natural foods store, and also listed City, O' City and Watercourse, along with Govindas. Does anyone have any recommendations for any other ethnic places in the area that I shouldn't miss? Mon Dec 15 06:38:35 -0800 2008 4241749 22831 awurrlu 3 4249738 There is (or was) a vegetarian/vegan buffet called Govinda's, located in/next to the Hare Krishna temple at 14th & Cherry. I've never been there myself, so this is informational, not a recommendation. Mon Dec 15 20:36:35 -0800 2008 4247529 54833 ClaireWalter 3 5156663 This is an old thread I know. I loved this place and had to look it up. So good, savory and very substantial meals served on trays. It has been over 8 years and I still think of it.

I will eat an entire cow and I'll still order the veggie sliders over the beef one's there. Comes with a side of curry sauce, which may or may not contain yogurt, but you can get it without. Also can do with no bun, if you're being strict. Jko www.musteatdenver.com Thu Nov 05 12:08:35 -0800 2009 4240205 1121259 kosslerj
