Cuisine of India

Address: 1212 NASA Pkwy

Site: www.cuisineofindiaclearlake.com

Notes: Amazing, extremely vegan friendly Indian restaurant in Clear Lake.  They offer a lunch buffet that's great, and they'll happily point out the items containing dairy.  If you order off the menu, get them to veganize the Vegetable Korma.  Warning: rice contains butter.

Madras Pavilion

Address: 3910 Kirby

Notes: They are really nice about pointing out which items in the buffet don't contain ghee (clarified butter). On the menu, the Gobi Manchurian is what you need.

Pepper Tree Ⓥ

Site: peppertreeveggiecuisine.com

Notes: now ALL VEGAN. Tuesday-Friday lunch buffet from 11-2. all day buffet (with sushi) on the weekend.

the buffet on the weekend is more expensive, but WELL worth it for all-you-can-eat sushi. I'm what you would call a "habitual regular" here on the weekends.

Hours: Tue-Fri 11am-3pm, 5pm-9:30pm / Sat-Sun 11:30-9:30pm / closed Monday.
