Vegetarian Cuisine Restaurants in Acapulco

“Vegetarian” can have many different meanings, depending on whether you seek vegetarian cuisine for reasons of health, philosophy, religion, ethics, or simple dietary preference. In Acapulco, restaurants understand “vegetarian” to mean the absence of meat (including seafood) and meat derivatives in the food. Those seeking to avoid all animal products (including eggs, dairy and honey) need to make very specific inquiries of someone at the restaurant who might know. Many traditional Mexican foods, like salsa and guacamole or rice and bean burritos, can be vegetarian. Check to be sure that the tortilla chips (totopos) and the refried beans are not prepared with animal fat or that the rice has not been made with chicken fat. Most quesadillas and tacos made with beans can be vegetarian, as well as many chilaquiles and bean-pies. Chile sin carne, rice and black beans, cheese enchiladas, vegetable fajitas and chiles rellenos round out the options. In Acapulco, the vegetarian choices are an Indian restaurant, the 100% Natural chain, which markets vegetarian menu choices, and the several other restaurants that will gladly prepare their traditional dishes in accordance with your request.
