There’s no argument that Los Angeles has some of the country’s best vegan food. Lucky for Angelenos, some of those vegan goodies can be found in Downtown LA’s hottest new food playground, Smorgasburg LA. To help you eat your way through all of the hangry-quelling, drool-tastic, Instagram-worthy noms, here is a handy guide on how to ‘Eat All of the Vegan Food at Smorgasburg LA.”

Amazebowls

What to get: Amazebowl (Acai base), Fresh Prince of Bowl Air (Mint Base), Dragon Bowl Z (Pitaya Based) Fruity Pebbowl (fruit bowl), Coconut Amazebowl (served in a half coconut), or BYO/Build Your Own (I recommend the vegan caramel!)
What’s their deal: Acai bowls have reached peak Instagramability in Los Angeles, but no bowl can top Amazebowls delicious hemp-milk based bowls which are almost too pretty to eat. With two store fronts under it’s belt (Venice Beach & DTLA Arts District), Amazebowls sets up shop every Sunday at Smorgasburg to offer their delicious Vegan bowls, including the infamous Coconut Amazebowl served in an actual coconut topped with a Pineapple Crisp and fresh flowers.
