when vegans eat out pt. 6
today i had a spontaneous lunch at Sapa, the trendy Vietnamese restaurant in Neubau (1070). a few of their dishes are vegan-friendly, make sure to always tell them to add no fish(y) sauce to your order.  i had a delicious To Bun (as usual; costs € 8,20), i love the peanuty, minty tofu-veggie-noodle mix, and one of these days i will re-create this dish. just you wait!
