breakfast: coffee with french vanilla soy creamer (leftover from making ice cream a couple of weeks ago)

lunch at thaiphoon: Ka Pow Jae (string beans, zucchini, mushrooms and deep fried tofu stir fried with fresh ground peppers, garlic and basil) and vegetarian drunken noodles (fried tofu sauteed with wide rice noodles, fresh chili, garlic, basil leaves, onions and tomatoes).  I had to state that I am allergic to fish AND oyster sauce 5 times before the waiter wrote it down.  She wrote down no fish sauce, but kept ignoring my statement that i can’t have oyster sauce.  The vegetarian curry dishes have use a pre-made sauce that contains fish.  Before ordering anything off their menu ask what can be made without fish and oyster sauce.

snack: a bite of a vegan quiche from Roots Market (owned by the people who own Great Sage. This is probably my favorite market)

dinner: leftovers from thaiphoon and a ton of movie theater popcorn (without the butter)

Q: Are Rogue beers vegan friendly?
A: We do not use islinglass (finings, which are fish bladders) for our bottles and regular kegs of Rogue Ales, so yes, the regular commercial beers from Rogue are vegan friendly. Note, there are finings used for the cask conditioned firkins… which helps settle the beer in the cask. (Same with our allied breweries, Eugene City and Issaquah Brewhouse). ; Hitachino’s Nest ale
