There are plenty of vegan places in Warsaw too. Especially the burgers grow popular. Last week I had a perfect mushroom burger. There is a vegan pizzeria, Loving Hut and some more vegan caffees, restaurants, falafel houses etc. Did you try vegan cheescakes? I can't say which one of these places I'd call the best but I love Thai soup at Loving Hut. And falafels.

My favourite Vegan restaurant has Raw Vegan Cheesecake on its menu, and I'm thinking of trying it sometime soon. Their Raw Vegan Chocolate Cake was very good, but their Raw Keylime Pie was only decent.

My favourite Vegan desserts are probably the cupcakes from a place that I think I've mentioned here before called Kelly's Bakeshop. The best type of cupcake I think I've had from them are the Snickerdoodles, which has a very nice cinnamon icing, with a good cinnamon/spice cookie on-top, and the cupcake itself is nice and dense, but also typically very fresh and fairly moist.

They also have Vegan doughnuts there, though I think they make them only once a week (I'm unsure of which day). I still haven't tried those yet, but I definitely should the next time I go there on the day that they have them available.

Has anyone else tried Vegan doughnuts before?

Vegan doughnuts just taste like any doughnut; eggs and milk don't really contribute to doughnuts -- they're pretty much just fried sweet yeast dough.

Vegan doughnuts are almost as unhealthy as the non-vegan kind, though. :P

I love raw desserts!
The chocolate cake the the cheesecake are both made from nuts; the chocolate just has chocolate in it too. The cheesecake will be similar to the Keylime pie, minus the Keylime. Without chocolate, you'll be able to taste more of the nutty flavor. It's possible they cultured the nuts into nut-cheese, but unlikely for a cheesecake.
I'd stick with the chocolate if I were you. :)

So Wild Ginger is actually good? I've been to a few vegan places that were:
A. mostly vegetarian.
B. really, really unsanitary looking.

Can you still recommend it? I live in the New York City area, so I could use a few recommendations.
