Only in Canada you say?

 

An amusing and rather heart-warming story of how a butcher and a vegan restaurant coexist side-by-side in the heart of cattle country.

 

This caught my eye because we once had a restaurant called the Butcher and the Vegan (documented in the Ladies who Lunch thread)  where the menu offered some innovative ways in which vegans and carnivores could enjoy lunch together. Didn’t last very long.

Not so unusual. Here is one such pairing I spotted on my recent visit to Vietnam.

There was also a vegan place here in town a few years back. It was sandwiched between a Sichuan and a Hunan restaurant. Both very carnivorous. It didn't last long.
