I always see vegans AND non vegans raving about doomies. I went to the sunset location before they closed and got the 2 piece chicken with mashed potato’s and Mac because that’s what I see everyone order online. I felt like the chicken was not the best I’d tasted. Like plant power tenders I think tasted better. Aesthetic wise, it looks like kfc chicken so I get why people get hyped about it. But the taste on its own, I didn’t think was worth raving about. Maybe in a sandwich would be better. The mash and Mac was also ok. The cherry chocolate cake was pretty good though.
So did I order the wrong thing?

Craving a milkshake

Hey guys! I'm going to a movie by myself (!) for the first time and thought it sounded nice to also grab something to eat in and around The Grove as a light dinner beforehand. Normally, I'd just pop by Bestie's but of course they're gone now. Any hidden gems I'm not aware of? I'll happily eat a good vegan dish at a non-vegan place btw. My go-to is usually Singapore's Banana Leaf, which is kind of mid, but I just love South East Asian food so it's good in a pinch. Not really trying to go to a sit down place with table service etc since the movie starts pretty early, ideally I'd just eat in the Farmer's Market or somewhere else in the Grove.

Or am I better off just getting popcorn and candy at the movie? 😂 I'm meeting my friends for drinks elsewhere after so I can grab a real meal there if required.

I love Pura Vita and the pasta at Purgatory Pizza. I think Crossroads is okay. Any other suggestions?

Woodland Hills last day of business: 8/29/26 https://www.facebook.com/rattana.hnoi/posts/pfbid02qSNoPUicMia9PqurtNa8bdqixX5H3q1vvWwpXPp4mem21XUonQjd2jgNLXJRtjbTl

The other two: 8/31/26.

Note that Rattana's post says she will keep the other two open, but that might be old news, according to the post her close friend Kim Delgado made.

I’ve been eating at the WeHo location for years, I’m not new to the restaurant and this isn’t my first brunch there.

This weekend my friend and I were so underwhelmed with the offerings and quality. The Benedict was missing from the menu which felt weird. I ordered chicken and waffles and I got two 1/4 pieces of waffles with what looked like chicken nuggets on top. I’ve ordered this over the years and this just looked sad.

For $22 give me a whole waffle?

Worse, the potatoes on my plate and my friend’s Break The Fast had zero seasoning, the texture was that of day old reheated food and I asked my friend - are these Sysco frozen potatoes?

I got their email a few weeks back, come support, we need you. Their dinner and brunch has always been in my rotation. But honestly, it was really disappointing.

Isolated, off day or is anyone here feeling the same?

Forgot they were not fully vegan… it was 100% my fault as I did not read the clearly labeled (Dairy).

The whole reason I even got the pints is because they were having a sale and now I can’t even have it so feels like wasted money 🫠 I’ll probably give to a friend.

Anyways just wanted to lament to a community that would understand. Thanks for reading lol

I'm looking for a vegan KBBQ that has v meat similar to master kim in vegas. Preferably in OC but LA is fine, thanks.

Edit: Looking for AYCE that has mock meat which I think Sura in LB doesn't offer :(

hiiiii my vegan sister is visiting in october and she reallllllly wants a powdered donut! ive been looking at some vegan bakeries and cant find one. any advice or recs? would be great if it is within 40 minutes of north hollywood! thank you :)))))))) packaged is good too!!

So this kind of just occurred to me but I’m due in like a few days and I forgot to meal prep like I wanted to so that I wouldn’t have to worry about cooking while freshly postpartum. I’m going to have family over helping for a few days but unfortunately, I know they won’t know how to cook vegan food..
I may have time to prep a few things but would appreciate suggestions for easy meals as I’m already so tired and still have other things I need to prep.

Listing simple ingredients to have in the house for me to make a quick meal would also be helpful

Or, does anyone have any nutritious vegan meal prep services they know of? I’m based in Long Beach

Will you be our neighbor? 💕✨

This is my second time posting. We had a potential tenant but their plans abruptly changed so the ADU is still available.

FOR RENT: Attached ADU (650 square feet) in North Hollywood. Private entrance and patio space, shared on-site laundry. 

DETAILS: Rent is $1,675 / month, plus utilities (typically $200-$250, includes high-speed internet). Cats and small dogs are welcome! Street parking (abundant). 

ABOUT US: Married couple (37F / 41M) both vegan 5 years. We have 2 rescue dogs who are very loving and friendly. Staunchly liberal / leftist - LGBTQ friendly - 420 friendly - non-drinkers - classic stoner hippies. We are not the landlords, we are just the tenants in the front house and would prefer to have a vegan neighbor! 

ABOUT YOU: Hopefully a chill person, likes dogs (ours will demand to be pet and loved on by you), ideally vegan, employed, decent credit. 

DM me for photos and more info! 

im in hollywood so ideally closer to there but i will take suggestions within a 25 mile radius for when i have visitors/plans in other areas

Hi are any of you by chance also looking for a roommate? I am a 31 year old woman with a 10 yr old cat. I've been vegan for over a decade and would like to live with someone else who is vegan or vegetarian. I work a couple different part time remote jobs developing cultural heritage websites and am looking for a place in the valley. I honestly haven't seen other vegans on the roommate websites, so I thought it might be worth asking here.
