Being or becoming a vegan can be a really tough thing to do. You have to know which grocers to shop at and make sure none of your food has meat, fish or dairy in it. On every corner is a fast food joint like McDonald's or Burger King but most places like that do not offer vegan options. So I have composed of list of all the best vegan restaurants in Chicago. You should only want the healthiest and natural foods to go in to your body.
