any thoughts, ideas, recipes, places to go, etc? i have plenty of friends who won't go with me for dim sum because they're veggies. i can creatively attempt to make my own but i don't really have the time.

    i don't know any vegetarian-only dim sum places. would they mind if you ordered them vegetarian items at a non-vegetarian place? most dim sum places cater to the omnivore, having both veggie and non-veggie items. you can order the gai lan, tofu, and bean curd (fake meat) items... maybe they would like that?

      I heard there's one in East Bay somewhere but I'm not sure where though. I remember reading it in one of the food tribes for dim sum.

        there is a vegetarian on Grant Ave in Chinatown that I have gone to a few times. I can't remember the cross street but I know its there.My ex was a vegetarian and I used to bring home take-out from there to him and he really liked it.

          sorry to say, but the only vegetarian dim sum place i know of on Grant is now a dessert place.

          this place is located on Grant between Washington and Jackson.

          so you can get candy, boba, ice cream and silken tofu, but no more dim sum *sniff*sniff*

            Double-check this info by calling them. I'm in the SF Veg tribe and they mentioned this.

            Lucky Creation is a chinese veggie/vegan place but I didn't see any dim sum on their menu.
