• Excellent Vegan Option!

I'm the HappyCow Ambassador here in Shanghai. The following is provided by the folks at Sprout Lifestyle and provides a great description of what they are trying to do: "The Sprout Lifestyle Café’s focus is on seasonal fresh foods or salads and on providing delicious foods from a range of eastern and western chefs. Our dishes incorporate superfoods and fresh sprouts that provide nutritional benefits to help you reach optimum health. Our café provides delicious options for many types of dietary needs and palettes, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, pescetarians and meat eaters. Some of our popular products include: fresh sprouts, super salads, raw nut milks and butters, raw deserts, smoothies, kombucha tea, macrobiotic meals and more! Sprout Lifestyle Café works closely with Slow Food Shanghai’s producers to have a flexible menu according to our partner farms’ peak supply. If you are looking for healthy, clean and delicious food in Shanghai, you’ve come to the right place!" A limited amount of meat is provided as a way to encourage and introduce the meat eaters to a healthier lifestyle that hopefully results in a total change in the meat eater's dietary habits. They would be a five cow rating if they had no meat, but I do understand their approach and it is a great idea. To find the cafe you must walk east into the EcoVillage Complex. Note the pin on the map shows it about 50 meters or so off of Fenglin Rd. The food is excellent and the folks there are quite friendly. They do speak English so one should not have a problem. If you wish to eat outside, just ask and if there is a spare table they are willing to move it outside for you.
