It is no surprise to anyone that Ubud is famous for its vegan food as much as it is famous for is spiritual healing and spas. So it doesn't matter whether you are in mood for a meal or a dessert Ubud got you covered from Tempah Tunah Sandwich to chocolate banana pancakes. You get a restaurant for every vegan variety in this small green town. This is the reason why PETA listed it in its Top 10 Vegan Friendly cities in Asia.

"From the 100 percent vegan menu at The Seeds of Life to the meat-free traditional Indonesian foods served up by 9 Warung, the vegan dining scene in Ubud has exploded," says Jason Baker, vice president of international campaigns for PETA Asia. "The city has secured a spot on PETA's list because of its vibrant and delicious cuisine that's kind to animals, the environment, and diners' health alike."

As our vegan patriots believe that all animals from a chicken to a pigs are living things with emotions and eating them is an act of cruelty. Most animals which serve as regular human foods are raised in farms and filthy warehouses which is cruel and inhuman and they deserve the same rights as humans which is to be loved and cared after.

Ubud is popular among health fanatics and is no stranger to the traditional meat substitute tempeh, so its surge in plant-based dining options comes as no surprise. Sayuri Healing Food is another all-vegan eatery, which serves healthy delights such as "BLT" sandwiches and "cheese" platters. The city's vegetarian restaurants, like Living Food Lab and Alchemy —which both offer veggie-packed raw food — not to mention Wulan Vegetarian Warung and Earth Cafe & Market, also offer many hearty vegan options, from meat-free nasi goreng to sate seitan "ikan." Vegan-friendly Sari Organik prepares everything from vegan crêpes with soy ricotta cheese to raw Thai soup, while Kafe serves up vegan burgers and moringa peppermint nondairy ice cream. Even Dayu's Warung has a vegan-special-of-the-day menu in addition to other vegan menu items such as tempeh mango curry and mung bean dal.
