Another Houston person here!! Field of Greens, on West Alabama, is out of this world. Their chocolate silk tofu pie, is great. The owners are vegan and can veganize almost everything on the menu.

I will have to try Zabaks. I remember Mama's Po Boy. I love Middel Eastern food.

Just Kris, I work in the Med Center too. Where about do you work? I'm near Texas Women's Hospital.

St. Lukes and the O'Quinn Medical Towers! I went to Field of Greens one day. The food I had was ok, but the service was less than stellar. Had some great portabello fajitas at Hobbit Cafe though! Hadn't been there in years but I definitely won't be staying away that long again.

Yeah, sometimes Field of Gren's service, downright sucks, but I am addicted to the garlic dressing! I love Hobbit Cafe, but I liked it better when it was the Hobbit Hole.

I'm in Corpus for a couple months. does it suck as much as it seems it does or is there cool stuff to do - i work on Padre Island NS so that helps the situation A LOT...but corpus just seems gross.

no seriously, i dunno what it is, but i hate this town. ...

anyone? i've never been so bored in my life.

It's not just you. I have lived in Houston most of my life. My friends used to rave about going to Corpus for spring break or for a long weekend. I never saw the appeal. It's a depressing, ugly, small town, and the water looks like a giant toilet that has never been flushed. I feel for you!! How much longer do you have to be there?

hey catgirl, thanks!
i'm only here til the end of february..not long. but i'm still thinking about leaving early.
haha, but part of the reason i don't like it is cause it's too big - i'm a small town kinda girl.
i'm working in Leakey , TX next (pop 387) wherei worked last year - i kept busy there all the time, crazy huh?
it is a depressing town though...and apparently the gang problem is pretty bad also.
ha! about the giant toilet...that water IS pretty nasty...ew!

I'm in Houston! Well, technically I'm just north of Houston, on the outskirts. I live in The Woodlands. But, I'm involved in multiple area meet-ups. BTW, Pepper Tree Veggie Cuisine on Richmond is the greatest!

I love The Woodlands because they don't have any telephone poles. I think that I would get lost a lot, though, because there are so many, well, woods! Beautiful there.

The U.S. Army has sentenced us to Ft. Hood. Heads up on any farmers markets or veg friendly restaurants in Copperas Cove, Killeen, or Temple would be MOST welcome.

Your best bets would be Austin or San Antonio for veggie food. I have never been to Killeen; but unless you are in one of the bigger cities in beef country, you likely will not find many restaurants for veggies.

On the other hand, you will be very close to the James Avery headquarters showroom! Lucky you..... love that place!

Anyone in the north Houston area?

Anyone in the north Houston area?

I live in the Heights, which is North Houston, but not as far North as The Woodlands. I lived there when I was in grade school. It's grown!!

Hi all,
I'm currently in west Texas (Odessa/Midland). Anyone out here? It's not exactly a paradise for vegetarians, that's for sure.

excelent resuraunt (not all vegetarian, but with many vegan choices) located in Austin Tx. called "Mothers Cafe"

4215 Duval St
Austin, TX 78751-4341

I had the vegan bannana walnut pancakes
I think I may go back next time i'm in austin and get the tofu lasgana

Ooooh, is the tofu lasagna cheeseless?

I think I am going to Austin later in the year. I will have to look this place up! Thanks!

Hey Christoph83! I'm in Spring. You ever eat @ the mongolian buffet on 1960? We should get a small (4-7 ppl) group together and go there some time!

i'm not sure, the menu listed what was vegan or vegetarian. I forgot if it was vegan or not.

just wondering.....is anyone in the natural resource management/wildlife management feild. I am about to graduate and I would really like to talk to some people in the feild.

i guess that would be me..i do seasonal wildlife biology ...whatcha got?

Nope haven't eaten there. There is one in The Woodlands too. I eat at Dimassi's, P.F. Chang's, and Pepper Tree a lot.

They are opening a Dimassi's out in Clear Lake soon! Love Mediterranean food! I work just around down the street and around the corner from Pepper Tree (ok, not really, but the medical center is close enough) and I have never been there. Need to try it soon!

Well, what exactly do you do, if I can ask? Do you work for TPWD?

i'm currently employed by A &M, projects funded by TexDot, (CA) Forest Service, NPS, etc. currently i'm doing endangered bird research -

ie: one project- affects of highway construction on the GCWA.
another project: affects of onshore oil and gas drilling on wintering shorebirds.

Now that each state has its own forum I'll be closing the state threads. Please continue any discussion by starting a new thread in this forum. Thanks!
