Comida paraense vegana: existe

Até agora, foi onde encontrei a versão vegana da maravilhosa comida paraense. Por isso, vale a pena. (Um pouquinho mais de capricho no preparo ou preços um pouco mais em conta ia deixar sensacional.)

The Best Vegan Restaurant in Belém

I believe this restaurant was the best vegan restaurant in Belém, perhaps the best vegan restaurant in the north of Brazil. The restaurant is self-service. The food is honest and very tasty. The desserts are incredible, one better than another. Interesting location, close to several important tourist attractions in the city.

Eu acredito que esse restaurante foi o melhor vegano de Belém, talvez o melhor restaurante vegano do Norte do Brasil. O restaurante é self service. Comida bem honesta e muito saborosa. As sobremesas são incríveis, uma melhor do que a outra. Localização interessante, próxima a vários pontos turísticos importantes da cidade.

Many options and delicous food

We ate here while waiting for our connecting flight. Not too crowded but still many people eating when we were there. Many nice options, mainly brazilian dishes, but not too many so you could take a little bit of everything. Free juice refill was appreciated on a warm day, although the temperature in the restaurant was comfortable.

Purão vegano

O ambiente é incrível, os funcionários sempre são simpáticos e tem comida diferente todo dia e diversas opções, além disso eles fazem ação social. O valor as vezes sai um pouco do orçamento mas pelo menos 2 vezes no ano (em datas comemorativas) eles diminuem o preço do kg e aí fica um preço muito acessível

Pros: tempero, variedade, educação

Ótimo restaurante

Antigo Govinda, agora é um restaurante inteiramente vegano estilo self service. Tem várias opções de salada, comida e sobremesas, muito gostosas e por um preço razoável. O preço do kilo no momento é 60 reais, e eu não como muito geralmente pago menos de 20 reais no meu prato. O ambiente também é muito agradável, acho que o único detalhe é a localização, pois é no comércio, então o trânsito nos arredores é bem ruinzinho kkk
No geral, super recomendo.

Pros: Inteiramente Vegano

Cons: Difícil de achar vagas nos arredores

Comida paraense para os veggies também

Minha maior preocupação quando me tornei vegetariana era como conciliar meus novos alimentares durante as viagens nacionais e internacionais.

Fiquei muito feliz de descobri que poderia consumir da culinária paraense que originária das alimentação indigena continua a fazer sucesso entre os que ainda se alimentam de carne. O Govinda possibilitou que eu também pudesse experimentar da culinária local sem faz mau a nenhum animal.

Comida deliciosa, preparada com muito carinho e apresentação belíssima. Até minha amiga onivora me confirmou que tem o mesmo gosto que a versão original.

Pros: Ambiente Aconchegante, Comida deliciosa, Equipe Amigável

Cons: Preço

Vegetarian and vegan versions of traditional dishes

Vegetarian with vegan options. Menu changes every month, but you can always find one day of the week with Maniçoba, a traditional dish of Belem.You have a starter, main dish, a glass of juice and a small dessert for the menu of the day (usually with 2 options).

Pros: Amazing regional food , Nice place

Cons: A bit expensive , Sometimes too packed

Interesting but tasty options

Food was tasty and a seemingly interesting take on Indian food. Fairly well priced for what you get, including a drink. Friendly staff. They also sold pies, pastries and other interesting takeout foods which we stocked up on for our 5 day ferry to Manaus.

Pros: Friendly staff, fast service, tasty food

Interesting but nothing special.

On the way to a new restaurant we usually guess the price of the complete menu. We underestimated what was the most expensive vegetarian meal we've had in Brazil. The decor is nice here, there are two food options each day, rotated weekly. The service is average for Brazil: we advised we were vegan, the deserts that we'd been given were not vegan we had to question this before it was rectified. The food was not abundant although a nice variety and each delicately flavoured. Where we'd had a completely comparable meal last week for half the price, there was no coffee here and the free tea was already mixed with milk, probably in the style of Indian chai, but nevertheless - not for vegans. This isn't a place for dining regularly, and we shan't be returning, but we appreciate this as a vegetarian option if looking for something novel in Belem. For us it felt too much like a business and not personal enough, we weren't totally satisfied when handing over our money.

Pros: Beautifully presented restaurant and food.

Cons: Not personal and too expensive.
