Bryant Park in NYC
Bryant Park transforms for winter. An ice skating rink takes over the grass and little pop-up shops sprout the perimeter. It's very fun. And 12 different food vendors are completely vegan. It's worth an afternoon and, especially, a chimney cake!…

Atlas Cafe in East Village
Atlas Cafe is a cute stop in East Village. At least half the menu is vegan and the owner is so nice. He calls all the women "Bella." A tiny space with mismatched chairs to help everyone feel comfortable. …
