Vegetarian Travel-Translation Cards

DurhamVeg created a range of vegetarian travel translation cards for TVA to assist us in dining as we travel and face language barriers. The cards say basically (with minor adjustments for the particular culture and cuisine) in both English and their respective language: “I am vegan. Please make sure there is no meat, no fish or fish sauce, no milk, no butter, no cheese, no milk powder or meat broth in my food”. Present the card to your server and feel confident that your dietary needs are understood. Feel free to print this page -or- you can download them from TVA's website too. We have found that these cards are very useful in local restaurants too. In fact, in our experience, the servers take the card into the chef and it never comes back! Let's hope the cards remain in the kitchens for quick reference and staff education. 


We are still working on more languages. If you would like to submit a translation, provide feedback or make a correction, please contact us at DurhamVeg@gmail.com.
