Vegetarianism in Dubai. Oct 07, 2003
I know that there are a lot of vegetarians here in Dubai.
But most of them are from India and they prefer indian cuisine which is quite spicy for europeans and such.

Now the interesting thing is, are there any vegetarians that eat not spicy food here? :) Besides me of course. :)

Yeah that site is extreme. I have to say I am a fan of the macabre. I was going to do a post asking for good websites but I don't have to now, I've already done it!!!!!
Anyway, rotten.com was brilliant when I used to work in a boring office. I used to spend hours reading all the stuff on it, till I got rumbled. Another good site but more tame (for Arabic speaking people) is www.gulfpark.com

I tried accessing both the sites mentioned above, rotten.com and gulfpark.com but it seems Etisalat has blocked them both.
What was it on there that got their goat ????

Nice poll, well thought-out options. So Andyba, are you a researcher? Seem to have covered most bases there.

So, where do non-meat eaters eat out in Dubai/Sharjah?

Half veg, Trying to stop eating non-veg. Its ideal time coz most of my friends here are Veggies. And I dont think it can get boring, if u are willing to try different cuisines, there are lots of choices. And ofcourse Indian spicy veg for moi :)

It depends on my mood what i want to eat, sy 2thimes a week nonveg, mostly chicken and fish rest veggies. Never really gave it a thought but i dont think i would be able to give up eating chicken:). no offense to the veggies ofcourse but even plants are living things except they cant even make a sound unlike animals against humans eating them.

I've never felt weak - I supplement with vitamins and still keep an eye on protein intake. More info on protein here - http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionso ... otein.html

I love spicy vegetarian food!
