Where are some great vegetarian restaurants in DC and Northern Virginia?

They don't have to be full on veggie restaurants, though that would be nice. Let me know what you have heard about or tried!Where are some great vegetarian restaurants in DC and Northern Virginia?
There is a place calle Java Green that does cafe-style vegetarian. A mite bit expensive but pretty good. www.javagreen.net It is on 19th st.



There is a very small place called A%26amp;J (Chinese) on Markham st, Annandale that I frequent and it has some vegetarian dishes. (703)813-8181. Their 'Kao Fu' tofu dish is excellent, but might be out of the way for you.



For others try the websites listed.



Hope this helps, enjoy.
Go to House of Chou, a great Chinese restaurant...

They have a dish called Vegeterian Delight...OMG! It is SO GOOD! I could eat it for all three meals 7 days a week!Where are some great vegetarian restaurants in DC and Northern Virginia?
EAT ANY WHERE



BOOGERS MAY BE THE PERFECT FOOD

Doctors at the Mario Clinic in Franz, New Mexico have determined that boogeroucious pelletious, commonly known as boogers, may actually contain all of the daily nutrients needed by the human body.

Professer Holcum Bigun PHd. DDS, ENh %26amp; SOb, head of the Nose Of Plenty Project at Eastwood College, announced the results of their studies to the AMA last week at the National Ear Nose and Throat Convention. "It's possible that the olfactory system of a single human being, with a serious cold, could feed an entire family of four, said Dr. Bigun to the attendees. There is certainly no reason why any community should sucumb to famine, when each individual can produce enough edible pellets to sustain his own body for several weeks."

The study also seems to suggest an explanation for the increased incidence of obesity in modern day America. Using hidden video cameras, reseachers followed a test group of fat people around and witnessed them eating boogers in the comfort of their cars. A control group of big dudes were only allowed to eat sugar, implanted in their noses to simulate boogers. The control group did loose weight, but over time they developed more tooth decay.

Dr. Willie Pickett OB/Gyn. attended the convention, and had nothing but big props for the Eastwood College findings. "This could be the most important medical finding in decades. It holds amazing promise. Treating obesity is now a simple matter of getting people to stop picking their noses. It will become as easy to treat as smoking cessation".

Sarath Batugedera, a visiting professor from Sri Lanka is the lone critic of the new findings." This is most surely junk science, he said. The only reason that the boogers of Americans are so nutritious is because of the highly nutritious diet available here in the United States. Many of the folks in third world countries routinely eat their boogers, but because their diets are not as rich in nutritional value to begin with as Americans, their boogers do not yield any nutritional value. Thus the people are still starving. Perhaps Americans may learn to harvest their nutritious boogers and export them to other countries, but I doubt that the world will welcome the new product."

The FDA and the US Surgeon General's office has made no comment, but are said to be studying the findings.
Almost every restaurant in the Dupont Circle area of DC are at least 50% vegetarian. Also, most Indian restaurants in DC and NoVa have a ton of vegetarian options. There's also a great vegetarian place in the Tyson's Corner area called "Sunflower". They actually have a lot of vegan options, too.
Since no one else is answering your question...



I've never been to the DC area, but here's a list from Google.
I found that hotel restaurants in D.C. cater to special needs clients from around the world. It is usually not a problem to special order foods without meats, cheese, eggs etc., so choose a hotel near your home and try them out.

When dining out I always suggest a call first and mention your needs. This courtesy on your part help ensure reciprocity from the Restratour.

Remember that cheese often contains rennet/enzymes that are scrapings frow the stomach of cows (not vegetarian) and deep fried foods may have cooked in fat that meats or other items have been cooked.
The Washingtonian just did a story on this. I wouldn't normally advocate this particualar magazine, but you might find it useful (it's the issue with something about home decorating on the cover - the March issue?). They might have something on their website too.
