Overseas - Suffern

I went to Jumbo Vegan Restaurant and was pleased to see they had a variety of clearly marked vegan options on their menu. I ordered the sesame tofu and the strawberry tea, both of which were delicious and reasonably priced.

This restaurant offers a wide variety of vegan options and is my top choice for Chinese vegan cuisine in Rockland County.

Yes, this restaurant serves meat like all other Asian restaurants. When my carnivorous family and I decided to dine at this Asian restaurant, we were pleased to find something for everyone. Most Asian restaurants offer tofu dishes and are willing to accommodate those who don't eat meat. This particular restaurant had just as many vegan options as it did meat dishes, with tofu dishes that could be added to any meat dish. I ordered the General Tso's tofu and it was delicious. My family was intrigued by my vegan meal, which was not their usual choice.

Throwing it back to the days when we used to eat meat in Chinese restaurants. Since becoming vegan, we only go to vegan places, but decided to give this place a try. I'm not sure if they fully understand what "vegan" means (they asked us if honey was vegan), but they have amazing Mai Wah meat substitutes. The sauces were quite typical, but sometimes just what we were craving!
