Best accidental vegan spot around for Szechuan

A hidden gem with accidental vegan options! We’ve been coming to Tasty Zone for probably 4 or 5 years and love this place for their no-mod vegan options. Every time we get their spicy eggplant and garlic bok choy - those are our staples. It wouldn’t be a tasty zone trip without those two. Then we either get the cold spicy noodle with tofu (spicy), the dry tofu (also spicy), or the mapo tofu (also spicy). We eat family style here and usually have enough leftovers for the next day.

I have to give major credit to our server last time who when we said we were vegan went above and beyond to check with the kitchen (even though we’ve been there a dozen times it never hurts to ask). He asked if we wanted our spicy eggplant prepared in a wok instead of deep frying it because of cross contamination. I have to say, no one ever is that thorough so we really appreciated that the chef had suggested that. Also, he informed us that unfortunately the scallion pancakes are NOT vegan. That was a staple until this trip when we discovered that they do use a little butter. Oops! We had asked before and they said they were. Hence, why it’s always good to ask again😉
