Zen Palate‘s pretty good!

There is a place on the south side of 4th St between Washington Square and 6th Ave called Vegetarian Paradise 2. Very good. Check out the Belgian beer bar next to it, too.

Angelica Kitchen in the East Village. Counter organic wine and martini bar and veg bistro.

Isn’t “killer vegan” an oxymoron?

I second Angelica Kitchen on 12th st.

@MissAusten – very funny ;) I suppose it is!

Thanks for the suggestions folks! I’m soooo stoked to be going! My wife and I are flying from San Francisco on Virgin America and I’m going to get tattooed by Thomas Hooper at New York Adorned!!!!

I second Counter. I’ve been there before but hadn’t remembered the name. I hope you have a good time here!

Vegetarian Paradise 2 on west 4th definitely.
Red Bamboo, next door to VP2 for more “comfort” vegan food (vegan chicken parm…...mmmmmm).
* Blossom Gourmet Vegan, on 9th ave in Chelsea for fancy vegan food – AMAZING
* Sacred Chow on Sullivan street in the Village is so healthy and makes me happy!
Kate’s Joint on Ave B & East 4th has KILLER mashed potatoes and ‘buffalo’ wings.

Phew and there’s tons more. There’s also a great book – ‘The Vegan Guide to NYC’, which is very helpful. Good luck w/ your tat and have a blast!
