Rating of the best vegetarian restaurants in Rostov-on-Don in 2022

A healthy lifestyle, proper nutrition, rejection of meat and alcohol - an increasing number of people in the modern world come to this kind of philosophy. However, this kind of dietary restriction is not always a conscious choice of a person, but can be associated with health problems - for example, intolerance to lactose (dairy products) or gluten, allergies to eggs, and much more. At the same time, regardless of the reasons, having changed the type of food, a person does not want to limit himself to things that are familiar to him, such as gatherings in a cafe with friends, lunches at business lunches, and much more. Fortunately, today many restaurants and cafes have begun to add so-called “healthy foods” to their menus, however, behind the beautiful sign “Gluten-free or vegan” cafes, there are often regular menus with dishes that have added eggs, wheat.

So what should you pay attention to when choosing a vegetarian restaurant in Rotov-on-Don, so that visiting it will bring only pleasant emotions?

Criteria for choosing an institution

If you do not delve too deeply into the subtleties, then among the main groups of people with dietary restrictions, the following can be distinguished:

1. Vegetarians - this group of people in their diet avoid meat, fish, seafood, but at the same time eat dairy products, eggs;
2. Vegans - refuse to eat meat, fish, seafood, as well as eggs and dairy products;
3. Raw foodists - consume only thermally unprocessed food (most often their diet includes nuts, fruits, vegetables, legumes and cereals);
4. People who do not eat certain foods - sugar (sugar free), lactose (one of the components of milk), gluten (a complex protein found in wheat and most cereals).

At the same time, in addition to food preferences, when choosing a cafe or restaurant, you should pay attention to the following additional services that will help make your stay more comfortable:

• The presence of a children's room or animator. When visiting catering establishments with children, it is desirable that there is a place where children can be left to play.
• Availability of parking. Unfortunately, today parking is one of the main criteria for choosing a cafe or restaurant, because few people want to circle around the building for 20 minutes in order to find a parking space.
• The presence of a business lunch on the menu. A person who dines every day in some establishments will often prefer a cafe with a business lunch rather than without it.
• Additional options (Wi-Fi, takeaway food).

Let's make a rating of establishments (cafes, bars, restaurants) that are suitable for different groups of people with dietary restrictions, different price ranges, ranging from budget to more expensive ones.
