 Some
people have become vegetarians for health reasons, some because
of the immense suffering to animals inherent in a meat-based diet,
and others because of the widespread damage animal-based agriculture
causes to our environment. In addition, because Animal Protection
of New Mexico, Inc. is very concerned about the use of animals in
medical experiments, we promote vegetarianism as a major part of
the preventative measures that we believe are the best assurances
of good health. We hope this guide will make it enjoyable for you
to experience new cuisines that are healthful, that do not involve
cruelty to animals, and that do not contribute to the destruction
of our precious planet.

More
and more people are becoming aware that a vegetarian diet makes
the most sense for their health, the health of the planet, and of
course the well-being of other animals. Won't you help us make positive
changes for the health of all animals, human and non-human, by supporting
our progressive campaigns? Please consider joining Animal Protection
of New Mexico, Inc. Learn how your individual choices and actions
can and will make a difference in the world!
The
restaurants listed in this guide have varied menus, all featuring
some vegetarian dishes. Many will prepare additional vegetarian
and vegan dishes if you ask. Letting the restaurant owner know that
you visited his or her establishment especially for a vegetarian
meal may encourage an expanded vegetarian menu in the future.
This is the second issue of the Santa Fe area Vegetarian Dining
Guide, offered by Animal Protection of New Mexico, Inc. We hope
that we have included your favorite vegetarian
restaurants, but if not, please let us know for future editions.
This guide will grow as more eating establishments feel a demand
for vegetarian/vegan food from their customers. Please contact us
if you know of a business that would like to help us distribute
this guide to their patrons.
This guide has been designed to provide you with a variety of dining
choices. It is by no means inclusive of all restaurants offering
vegetarian fare. We have included our favorites, along with many
restaurants specializing in ethnic dishes or specialty foods. We've
also included a list of natural food stores in the Santa Fe and
Los Alamos areas, to make your natural food/vegetarian grocery shopping
easier. Telephone numbers have been provided so that you can call
to check on menu selections and operating hours of stores and restaurants.
