Green Garden

Film: Nos Enfants Nous Accuseront
Too often, organic food can be criticized as some kind of Bobo trend. That’s why I was impressed by the theme of Jean-Paul Jaud’s new film Nos Enfants Nous Accuseront [Our Children Will Accuse Us], where he tackles the issue of the great number of diseases linked to environmental pollutants and the efforts of a small…

Saveurs Végét’Halles
Saveurs Végét’Halles is a great little place and oh so almost vegan. In fact their sign declares that they are a “Vegetarian and Vegan restaurant” and their menu declares that they do “Cuisine Sans Oeuf” (Egg free cooking.) They label everything and even label the one non-vegan food item that they make, which is a lasagne in case you were wondering. It’s…

Vegan Soaps and Creams
When you eat vegan, you also start thinking about what you’re putting on the outside of your body. After all, your skin is your largest organ. So I am a bit particular about the soap I use. I had heard a lot of good things about the company Lush. It’s absolutely great that they are…

List of Vegetarian Restaurants in Paris
Here is a list of the main Vegetarian and Vegan restaurants that will be of interest to a Vegan in Paris. Here in France the awning will say ‘vegetarian restaurant’ but they might serve fish because they are macrobiotic. I’m going to include those restaurants here, even though a fish is never going to be…
