Cena Vegan | Los Angeles, CA.

April 28, 2018 by matthew ayer

Currently, Cena Vegan is my favorite vegan spot in L.A. I went to Highland Park and visited their stand. I met with one of the owners, Carmen, and she showed off their excellent food. I tried their street tacos, nachos, and fat burrito. Check them out on FB and IG: @CenaVegan

Frida's | St. Louis, M.O.

March 08, 2018 by matthew ayer

I got to stop in and try Frida's vegan restaurant in St. Louis and it was awesome. They have a pretty varied menu of food items. Their food filled me up but wasn't heavy at all because they don't use oils in their cooking. If you're in the area check them out!

Beelman's Plant Based Pub | Los Angeles

January 08, 2018 by matthew ayer

This Pub serves only vegan food. Not only is their food visually stunning, it also tastes outstanding. I tried their tater tot nachos, Impossible Burger, and their Loco Moko bowl(favorite vegan dish in L.A. right now.) The Loco Moco Bowl is like a jasmine fried rice with bits of #impossiblemeat cooked into it. It is crazy good and very unique. At Beelman's is Los Angeles' newest vegan restaurant located Downtown on Spring St.

Green New American | Phoenix A.Z.

August 31, 2017 by matthew ayer

Green New American Vegetarian in Phoenix, AZ. serves delicious vegan "fast food". Their menu represents all the different popular fast food and comfort food meals that are popular in America. We tried their tacos, their "Big-Wac" cheeseburger, buffalo chicken tenders and their Blizzard-esque "Tsoynami" milkshake. It was all very delectable. If you end up in Phoenix, definitely check out Green.

Veggie Galaxy | Cambridge, M.A.

August 01, 2017 by matthew ayer

On this Boston layover, I was able to head to Cambridge and try out Veggie Galaxy. Never have I seen such an extensive, yet consistently delicious vegan menu. My friends, Alex and David, are both of the carnivorous persuasion and were absolutely floored by the food. We tried everything from chicken and waffles, to a seitan rueben! The assistant manager, Tom, was kind enough to sit down and show off some of the great desserts. The dessert menu at Veggie Galaxy is as delicious as it is long. All airline pilots and flight attendants need to hit this vegan spot asap!

August 01, 2017 by matthew ayer

On our layover in San Jose, CA., The crew and I ordered food from the vegan food delivery service Veganation. They brought us a massive feast of ribs, fried chicken, corn bread and truffle mac and cheese. It was all completely vegan of course. The entire crew was shocked at how realistic it all tasted. I have never eaten such amazing vegan chicken before. If you get a San Jose layover, head over to beveganation.com and order yourself some Southern comfort food!

The Impossible Burger vs. The Beyond Burger! Which one is better?

June 28, 2017 by matthew ayer

It was a good ol' fashion veggie burger showdown! We compared the two most realistic veggie burgers in the world against each other. Umami Burger's "Impossible Burger" against Veggie Grill's "Beyond Burger". We decided what tastes better and what tasted most realistic. We shot this video in Santa Monica. Since we are both vegetarians we grabbed some random dude off the street to get a meat eater's point of view!

Review: Soylent meal drink

May 14, 2017 by matthew ayer

It is a meal that's drinkable. Not only is it drinkable, it comes premade in a bottle and doesn't need refrigeration. These details are particularly useful to those who travel for work and need a meal on the go. A.K.A. pilots and flight attendants.
