Many of us are finally getting back to taking vacations. This summer especially, you may be planning on getting away for some R & R. We had the opportunity to travel to Miami last month for a much needed refresher. The ocean air, clear, aqua water, and clean beaches were restorative and relaxing. The beaches were sparse and the crowds were low since it was technically hurricane season. If you are planning on visiting you may want to keep that in mind and try to getaway in the fall or spring. Also, expect many delays and possible cancellations due to an employee shortage. Try to arrive at the airport at least three hours early.
Finding restaurants with vegan, gluten free and other special dietary considerations may be a challenge. A challenge that you might not be up for when you are trying to simply unwind and enjoy your vacation. We have compiled some delicious options as a guide for your next trip to Miami. Take a look and let us know what you think.
The Chocolate Chip Bakery creates beautiful and delicious treats and meals that are completely vegan, gluten free, soy free, and organic. The menu offers scrumptious baked sweet treats, specialty coffee and tea drinks like mocha masala chai, juices and smoothies, and savory sandwiches.
Under the Mango Tree is a pure delight from atmosphere to offerings, which include an array of both sweet and savory fresh healthy options. Acai bowls, smoothies, juices, coffee/tea, melts, toasts, empanadas, and sweet treats are available. Sit outside on the charming chairs and tables or inside near the beautiful plants and aromatic incense.
If you crave ice cream after a hot day in the sun, try Chill-N Nitrogen ice cream for a satisfying and refreshing treat. Delicious bases include both dairy and non-dairy options. In fact, if you are a vegan, you can choose from either almond, coconut, or oat milk. Fresh, seasonal fruit like mango and passionfruit made with coconut was our favorite!
Apple a Day Cafe can make a mean juice or a hearty portobello salad. Veggie burgers, tofu pizza, and black bean wraps are just a few organic, tasty vegan options. This is a take out only cafe and can be ordered through DoorDash, a perfect way to end the day and relax at home.
