“Vegan Friendly” Foodie Review- Zio’s Italian Kitchen, Houston, TX

Dealing with “Vegan-Bashing” has become a minor irritation in my every day life. Most days, I can brush it off without a second thought, but when I’ve already “Had It” with the normal, every day frustrations that come with being Vegan…

You can only eat Subway and Taco Bell so many times, before the desire to throat punch every rude, mean and arrogant Non-Vegan you encounter, becomes entirely too enticing.

That leads me to one of my biggest frustrations…

Why is it so difficult to find Vegan food?

So, after researching my entire lunch break away – I finally found not one, but two Vegan Friendly Restaurant options “fairly” close to me!

If that doesn’t warrant an immediate

boot to the mooncelebration, then I’m not sure what the hell does.

I couldn’t stop thinking about enjoying one of my favorite foodie indulgences…

I wanted it ALL- the Fresh Baked Italian Bread, the Savory Oil with the Amazing Herbs, the Fresh Chopped Salad, drenched in a Delicious Italian Dressing….

I finally found it all here…

I must admit, finding Vegan food options is a huge feat; even in this incredible Modern World we live in. Thankfully, so many amazing bloggers, writers, travelers and normal, every day Vegan Guru’s spend countless hours compiling lists, making calls, sending emails and doing everything they can to make our life a little easier.

I just want to say

thank youfor all you do!

I found an amazing Vegan Restaurant List online that was prepared by Jake D back in 2013. This post is titled “Vegan Eating in Norman” and although we don’t have all of the restaurant options here in Houston, TX.- we did have quite a few!

You can check out Jake D’s amazing list here:

  1. Hi! I’m a new follower. Thanks for sharing this! I’m a vegan living in Austin, so I can generally go to a food truck vs Taco Bell or Subway (I really don’t like the meat they have on display there), but we will visit Houston soon! So, thank you for posting these. I am excited. 🙂

    • Hi Romina!
      I LOVE Austin! It is so beautiful there!The culture, the people, the food, the festivals- literally everything is just so amazing. 🙂
      Houston is such a big place that, depending where you are, it might be super easy to find Vegan options, or downright impossible.
      Downtown Houston has great Vegan restaurants- You gotta check out Green Vegetarian Cuisine (I have a blog about this one too!) and Sunshine Food Mart when you come!
      I live on the North East side- Humble/Kingwood area and we just don’t have any Vegan restaurants here. It can be super frustrating- especially when you are traveling!
      Thank you for following & commenting!
      If you need any Vegan foodie ideas when you head this way- let me know! I’d love to help! 😀
