MUSKOKA VEGAN

WELCOME TO THE BLOG

All things vegan in Muskoka.  Real dining experience reviews, real awesome product highlights and insights into our favorite places to go and experience. 

Since moving to Muskoka, Ontario from the east coast of Canada, we had to discover where to shop, eat and how to live a plant based lifestyle in this gorgeous location. It was fun to discover a new place, but at times challenging to find just where to shop and what to buy everyday that matched our values.
We wanted to create a community resource where others could find guidance, real honest reviews, education, recipes and info on how to live a kinder, healthier life. 

We hope that through creating these tools for you and sharing our story you will feel INSPIRED to make more conscious choices everyday, improving your own life and creating a better world for the animals we share it with. 

Do you know an amazing business that offers vegan options we should check out? Get in touch, we would love to hear from you! 

 

 

              Welcome to Cottage Country, Vegan style.




EL PUEBLITO - Fresh Mexican Cuisine { BRACEBRIDGE, ON }

 

In the mood for an amazing fresh Mexican meal to leave you so full you can't even fit in dessert? This is your place. We are lucky to have such great food and service here locally. 

This adorable restaurant has vegan options in almost every category which of course excited us to no end. Owners Mike and Marlenne created an authentic Mexican experience with the freshest food right in Bracebridge with a bright, warm atmosphere. They are also super fun and the cutest couple too! Their love for their guests and each other is very endearing. 

 

 

We absolutely LOVE dining here. One month last year I swear we were addicted and had to go every week. We have literally tried

everything vegan on the menu.  

 

 

 

Extra Hot Please.

We LOVE things spicy, so if you do too, be sure to order the extra habanero hot sauce on the side. And if that's not enough, you can even take a bottle home with you to put on everything you cook! Not that we do that... well, maybe we do. It's just that good!

Their fresh homemade guacamole and chips as a starter is so delicious and a must order. With many vegan options and Chef Mike has plans for more - you need to make yourself a regular too! They also offer Salsa dancing nights too, so be sure to try that out and get your dance on! Oh and... don't forget to order a Black Currant Margarita with that!
