Vegetarian food in Cebu!

[Mikester]

I'm hoping to visit my GF in Cebu City early next year. I'm a lifelong veggie (a pretty strict one, but not quite vegan) and wonder how easy it will be for me to find food there? I have looked at various sites, many seem to contradict each other on availability of veggie restaurants / options. Any veggies on here that can advise? :caddy:

:icon_lol: I'm the same as you, I'm not sure Filipinos know what a veggie is :biggrin: , the misses had told the waiter in restaurants that i want the meal without meat or fish, and a few times its turned up on the plate, only for my misses to tell them again and they took the plate away, took the meat off and brought it back :doh

goodluck thou :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Well a Google search has produced this: http://www.happycow.net/asia/philippines/cebu/ However as I haven't been there yet, I've no idea where anywhere is, or if the information is current. Elsewhere I have read that Cebu is very much a fish city and there are very few veg options. It could be a Margarita Pizza diet I think (do they use vegetarian cheese there?). :Help1:

just make sure your g/f makes it clear to the waiter you don't want any meat,fish or eggs in your food:wink:, i usually end up on a diet of crisps :icon_lol: and I only drink anything if its come out of a bottle , i had a slush type drink once that made me really :repuke:

sometimes we go to T.G.I Fridays, where they should have veggy stuff, pasta, chips :icon_lol: onion rings etc, or if the worse comes to worse some chips from Jollibe :wink:
