| azerea_02 | I've yet to try Daiya, but I recently found ONE grocery where they have it, in Embrun, of all places, tiny little town in the country :P I'm looking forward to trying it on homemade pizza though |

 You can also get it at the Natural Food Pantry in Billings Bridge.  Did anyone feel the earthquake today?  No way! I go to the NFP in Billings 2-3 times a week and I've never seen it! I've seen the Follow Your Heart and the Tofutti slices. But never Daiya! Maybe they're always sold out. I wouldn't be surprised, since it's so good!  Yep, I felt the earthquake! It was pretty strong. The epicentre was only 50km north of Ottawa! They made us evacuate our office building after. |

Hi! I'm from Strathroy, Ontario, which is really close to London. Any Londoners around here? I noticed that we have two vegetarian restaurants in the city - Zen Vegetarian (which I have eaten at) and Veg Out (vegan). I try to get up to Toronto as much as possible, but since it's 3 hours away that isn't always doable. So, anyone from around there? |
| 05-23-2010 08:25 PM | |
| Farmrush | That would be really cool. I literally only know one person in the entire city! |

It's the second year it's running, they're going to have tons of booths for vegetarian and vegan companies in town (Auntie Loo's vegan cupcakes, ZenKitchen vegan restaurant, all sorts of local natural product makers).

I'm not attending these universities, but I've lived in Ottawa for 3 years, so I can help you with any questions you have about the city. Vegetarian-friendly restaurants, health food stores, etc. There are lots of options, and I've tried most of them. Some are better than others

| Farmrush | Is anyone planning on attending University of Ottawa or Carleton University in September? I wouldn't mind making a few new friends as I won't know anyone in, or anything about, the city. |
