How to Eat Plant-based on the Big Island
Manage episode 360193101 series 3447653
The Big Island is a dream. Volcanos, fern forests, cobalt blue vista views, and more. But did you know it was rated one of the most vegan-friendly states in the United States? This was comforting news as we were preparing our travel arrangements for a February trip. As a plant-forward chef and a full-on vegan husband, it’s a conundrum of where and what to eat when traveling. But, good news, Hawaii had a lot to offer the plant-based traveler! So let’s chat about how to eat plant-based on the Big Island with some off-the-beaten trail options.
As I did my research, I found many restaurants and cafes that offered plant-based options. From tofu to jackfruit to complete vegan cafes, I felt confident that if we wanted to go out to eat, we would have no problems at all. Rarely did I find a non-chain restaurant that didn’t have at least one vegetarian or vegan option – and it wasn’t spaghetti marinara.
Yes, Hawaii prizes its ahi tuna, homegrown beef, and pork, but there is an uptick in the interest in plant-based or vegan lifestyles possibly because they are ocean-bound and self-sufficient, or catering to many visitors. Although Oahu is the most vegan-friendly Hawaiian island, (bigger metro areas, more visitors, I get that) I give my hats off to the Big Island and its interesting options if you know where to look.
