Thanks to Chuck who shared this link for me.  I’m not much of a veggie eater but some of these restaurants make me want to try and see if I can eat an entire meal in a vegetarian restaurant. Anyone want to go with me?

The Top 10 Vegetarian Restaurants in the Philippines (according to PETA)

PETA’s hard-to-please vegan staff have chowed down to find the 10 restaurants that are best meeting the demand for meatless meals. It wasn’t an easy decision, but after a bit of good-spirited biting, screaming, and hair-pulling, our “judges” finally reached their conclusions. The results are in!

Azotea Greens
Baguio City
This small, quaint cafe serves extremely reasonably priced vegetarian Filipino dishes that will give you a true taste of Baguio without all the cholesterol and cruelty to animals. Sample adobo, afritada, nilaga, kaldereta, ginataan, and the bestseller, mushroom sisig. The cafe also sells a selection of frozen mock meats, soy milk, cruelty-free body-care products from Human Nature, and dairy- and egg-free cookies from Love Bites.
Azotea Greens’ veggie nuggets taste just like chicken – without the cholesterol and cruelty.

Bliss Cafe
Baguio City
Bliss Cafe always seems to be crowded with friendly people, perhaps because of its peaceful atmosphere and convenient location. The menu boasts something for everyone – from traditional Pinoy fare and merienda to international cuisine that will give you a taste of everywhere from Seoul and Tokyo to Zurich and Mexico City. The best dish is the “energetic embutido,” which can be made vegan by opting for no cheese – even omnivores swear it tastes better than the real thing. It even has an all-day brunch menu, including the vegetarian classic of scrambled tofu with soy sausage.

Bodhi (also known as Evegreen)
SM Cubao, SM North EDSA, SM Megamall, SM South Mall, SM City Manila, SM Makati
If you’re craving traditional Pinoy food, head to your nearest Bodhi stall! Fortunately, they’re easy to find, too, with stalls in many Metro Manila malls. And the best news yet is that the meals can’t get more affordable! Try vegetarian versions of Pinoy dishes like kare kare, menudo, asado, bopis, ginataang langka, broccoli with “beef,” adobo, pochero, and afritada. Pure and simple, Bodhi’s mock meats have it all over the “real thing.”
Bodhi offers inexpensive traditional Pinoy food – all vegetarian!

Corner Tree Cafe
Jupiter, Makati
This small cafe along Jupiter Street has a homey feel as well as comforting but very healthy food. Choose from the extensive menu of filling soups, fresh salads, and wholesome main dishes like stews, burgers, ethnic cuisine, and pastas. The cafe even has a Filipino dish of the month! Start off the meal by sharing the starter plate, a combination of Egyptian dukka and white bean hummus served with chunks of whole wheat bread and vegetable sticks. The tofu walnut burger, which is served with sweet potato fries or an organic green salad, is an absolute must-have.

Daily Veggie N’ Cafe
Quezon City
Tucked away in the streets of Quezon City lies a vegetarian haven called Daily Veggie N’ Cafe. If you love the taste of meat but would rather not get it from a cholesterol-laden animal – or if you’re eating with nonvegetarians and want to introduce them to flavorful and fabulous flesh-free fare – this could be the place for you. Try the curry (on its own or with noodles) and the sweet-and-sour nuggets as well as the sizzling fillet, which is so fish-like that it’s almost scary (the seaweed looks and tastes like fish skin).
Daily Veggie N’ Cafe’s sweet-and-sour nuggets – all the taste without the flesh!

Greens Cafe and Restaurant
Scout Castor, Quezon City
A visit to Greens Cafe and Restaurant, located in the heart of Quezon City, is a truly memorable experience. It’s hard to say if it’s the tempting traditional sisig and embutido dishes or the mouthwatering modern fare like the clubhouse sandwich and the various veggie burgers that makes this restaurant so memorable, but one thing is certain: The vegan chocolate cake is an astounding taste experience that is guaranteed to be the subject of daydreams for weeks to come.
Greens Cafe has both green cuisine and a green and refreshing atmosphere.

Hapilife Healthy Food Corner
West Tapinac, Olongapo City
Tucked away on the quiet streets of Olongapo is a little gem of a restaurant that combines great food and great service, all for very reasonable prices! The range of tempting options includes combo meals with vegetarian versions of steak, tuna, drumsticks, and roast duck; meat- and dairy-free versions of traditional Filipino fare, including adobo, sisig, pancit miki, and misua soup; and detoxifying fresh fruit and vegetable juices. A vegetarian haven on the quiet streets of Olongapo.

Ima’s Gulay Bar
Puerto Princesa City, Palawan
The menu at Ima’s Gulay Bar boasts such a wide variety of dishes that it’s hard to choose! From Mexican burritos, pizza, and jambalaya to fresh salads, filling soups, and a variety of sandwiches and vegetarian burgers, whatever you’re craving, you’ll find it at Ima’s! Just ask for the vegan versions of the spicy bean burger, curried tofu sandwich, or sausage fajitas and you’re in for a treat. If you’re in the mood for something different, try the spicy okra and mango pasta. Finish off the meal by sipping an exotic shake in soy coffee, carob, ginger, or fruit flavors.  If you’re in Puerto Princesa, stop by Ima’s Gulay Bar for a refreshing meal.

Mandala Spa
Boracay Island, Malay, Aklan
With a focus on health, rejuvenation, and a relaxing atmosphere, the Mandala Spa in Boracay is the place to go when you really want to get away from it all. To keep with its focus on health, the spa has a completely vegetarian restaurant that serves classic cuisine that’s filling yet nutritionally balanced. Try the pan-fried tofu – which is served stir-fry style with beans, asparagus, pechay, and sprouts and topped with peanut sauce and crushed peanuts – and the pad Thai (without the egg), which is topped with a sweet tamarind-based sauce and spring onions. Finish off the meal with a light dessert of scrumptious apple crumble.
If you want amazing vegetarian cuisine and a relaxing atmosphere, head to the Mandala Spa.

The Farm
San Benito, Batangas
The restaurant at The Farm spa and resort offers extensive raw lunch and dinner buffets (don’t let the “raw” factor scare you – this raw food is delicious). The elegant cuisine – made entirely from fresh fruits, vegetables, grains, and seeds cooked at low temperatures to retain their nutritional value – will tempt your eyes and satisfy your palate. Deliciously creamy yet dairy-free pastas, rich soups, tangy stir-fries, and fresh salads blanket the buffet tables.  Don’t let the raw factor scare you – the Farm offers both nutritious and delicious food!
