MWhile eating at Chua Giac Minh in East Palo Alto yesterday, I started chatting with a group of 3 vegetarians who are Chinese descendents who originally came from SE Asia. They all live in SF and the ‘ringleader’ brought the other two there to eat at the temple for the first time. I asked the ‘ringleader’ her favorite vegetarian spots in the Bay Area, and here’s what she gave me:
Vietnamese vegetarian:
- Best of the Bay: Chua Giac Minh, East Palo Alto
- Green Lotus, 1143 Story Rd, Ste 180 San Jose
Cantonese vegetarian:
- Ming’s Diner, 2129 Taraval St, San Francisco, which KK wrote about.
- Another place in Chinatown whose name unfortunately slipped my mind, but she said its not as good.
She seems to be quite a veggie-foodie- knows all about Chua Giac Minh, know all about the veggie and tofu places in San Jose…
