For twenty years Zen Palate has strived to combine great taste, great health and a great dining experience in NYC with it's fusion vegetarian cuisine. The menu is mostly vegan, full vegetarian. Zen Palate boasts the highest quality ingredients with over 60 varieties of plants and flowers from around the world. "Our goal is to enlighten the individual through their sense of taste by providing delicious and vibrant vegetarian foods and foodservices," the owners wrote on VegDining.com. Zen Palate was started in 1990 by a group of Buddhist vegetarians who felt there was a lack for quality asian vegetarian fare. Zen Palate was voted by AOL CityGuide as both the #1 Best Vegetarian Restaurant and #1 Best Healthy Dining Restaurant in New York. Zen Palate has also been featured in Continental Airlines Best of New York Series and listed in the top 5 on the Food Networks Best Of Far-East Favorites in North America.
