20,000 cows.

Last night Mum and I went out for dinner to the most amazing little place. It is hiding away in Lismore, about 45 minutes from our place, and it is so small and disguised that you wouldn't even know it was there- we drove past it twice before we found it.


It is a vegan restaurant, and the site is set up as an animal 'sanctuary' which means that no animal products are used in or around the site. It is decorated with the randomest mix of mismatched furniture and colourful tablecloths, and it has quite and Indian feel. Some people are sitting on couches and others on these regal looking chairs, but the atmosphere is fantastic. The music and colours are just wonderful and the food, oh the food! The menu has about a million things, beautiful curries and dips and soups and wraps- all vego of course- and they have a 'suggested price only' menu, so that the people who cannot afford to eat much at all can only pay a small amount, while people with more money add a few dollars to the bill to cover the cost.


It is the ultimate ethical establishment. They look after everyone, and they are all so welcoming and lovely. It is really like being to dinner at someones house, even down to the candles and kids running everywhere. If you are ever in this part of the neighbourhood, definitely get there!!!
