Texas Folklife Festival
This week is the 37th Annual Texas Folklife Festival happens in San Antonio. We went year before last, but couldn't go last year because I had my thyroid surgery a few days before it. I was looking at their schedule and the menus listed for the food vendors and found three vendors where I can get vegetarian food!
18 LEBANESE ST. GEORGE MARONITE CHURCH will have a falafel sandwich, tabouli, "Hummous" ;) and olives with pita
25 TURKISH AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF SAN ANTONIO offers a "Combo plate, vegetarian: piyez, dolma, baklava" (the baklava has honey in it so I might give that to my DH)
VIETNAMESE 24 LOTUS FLOWER TEMPLE is only selling vegetarian food: Vegetarian Spring Rolls and Vegetarian Fried Rice.
There may be other stuff that I overlooked but that will be a bonus. I'm so thrilled to know that I won't be eating only Clif or Luna bars that I bring there.
If you're nearby, the festival is a lot of fun. Lots of ethnic dancing and exhibits, a roving juggler and lots of music, too.
