Hi guys! I've been following you for a really long time and I love your recipes. It's really nice to know that you've loved Lisbon, my city. Next time, you should really try some of the delicious vegan restaurants we have here, they're beginning to pop up everywhere!

[@thehappypear]

[@josilva996]

YES LISBON MY CITY! Nowadays there are a lot of vegan options and restaurants here, next time we will suggest a few :)

[@thehappypear]

Absolutely we'd love to explore more 😄👍🙌

[@carolinacarloto5931]

You missed all the good restaurants in Lisbon! We have amazing vegan options. When you come back go to Jardim dos Sentidos, Jardim das cerejas (Indian food), Ao26 for the amazing snickers pie and burgers and Veganeats for sweet treats :)

[@NomadicVegan]

Agreed! Those are some of my favorites. I really like Psi too, and the Aloha Café is great for brunch.

[@thehappypear]

Ah we'd love to go back there to do some proper eating! 😄👍🙌

[@akindofmagick]

What a fantastic conference!! Just looked it up and was blown away!! Congrats - would so love to hear the rest of your talk!!

[@thehappypear]

Ah was an incredible experience altogether! 😄👍🙌

[@carlasofia4667]

Next time you come to Lisbon please let us know! I would loooove to take a picture with you! :-D There are actually some really great vegan places to eat in Lisbon.

[@anaassuncao150]

Can’t believe you guys came to Lisbon and didn’t give a heads up!! I would of loved to meet y’all! Cheers from Portugal 🎉🇵🇹

[@thehappypear]

[@mayraguapindaia4266]

So glad to see that you guys enjoyed the beautiful Lisbon! The chestnuts are so delicious, they are really popular here on autunm and winter!

[@thehappypear]

They're epic!!! 😄👍🙌

[@ednamartins6352]

The chestnuts are roasted and it's something very typical of Portugal and they only come out in Autumn.... they are nham. For surfing Ericeira or Nazare are the best places. ♥

[@thehappypear]

Super stuff thanks Edna! 😄🙌👍

[@asaleepi]

Love your what I eat in day videos

[@thehappypear]

[@goldavelez7659]

Hi, David and Steve! I’ve been exploring your channel in the past weeks and trying out your recipes and I am so inspired. I think that veganism is the way to go, i feel great - body and mind - and I am almost not eating meat and dairy anymore. I am not there yet but I think I will be soon! So thank you so much for being an inspiration. Cheers from Manila! Love you guys!! :)

[@thehappypear]

Good on ya keep up the fab work!!!! 😄👍🙌

[@nomad_james2365]

My girlfriend and I just visited lisbon when the web summit was on! Would have been cool to meet you guys. The vegan food on offer in lisbon is really good. We visited a number of places thanks to happy cow 😀 We loved lisbon as a city (not a huge city person ) Hope to see you guys in the future, keep up the great work

[@thehappypear]

Wow brilliant would have loved to meet ye! 😄👍🙌

[@asfilipa]

OMG... I'm a portuguese girl (from Lisbon), living in Ireland for almost 12 years! Can wait for visit your shop here...Did you liked my city? Beautiful isn't it? I miss home...

[@IanParker]

Love it guys... keep rocking and sharing with the world about the Vegan way of living #TheHappyPear #Flynners #BOOM

[@thehappypear]

WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! 😄👍🙌

[@shess1640]

I was in Lisbon (I’m from San Francisco ) in 2015....a bit tough for a vegan.... Berlin was so easy but Lisbon was still so meat centric. Would love to go back and see what its like now.

[@thehappypear]

It's actually great especially all the lovely fruit! 😄👍🙌

[@NomadicVegan]

I think you'd find Lisbon much more vegan-friendly now! New veg places are opening up all the time, and the movement is really growing.

[@surfsusan]

I am down in the Algarve and will stay here until April, it's a bit of struggle to get vegan foods here. But not impossible and I cook most days anyway. I love Portugal and you lads.

[@thehappypear]

Wow beautiful you're fab! Sending love! 😄👍🙌

[@therealjennaleigh6477]

I’d love to see a what I eat in a day vid in Cape Town, South Africa!

[@thehappypear]

Sure we'd love that! 😄👍🙌

[@NomadicVegan]

I just spent nine days in Cape Town. The vegan food there is amazing! I'm now in Johannesburg, which has much fewer options. It's quite a striking constrast.

[@ruairidhvoigt9654]

Great video! You guys should come to Zürich next time you're doing a trip abroad. Keep up the good work!

[@thehappypear]

Would love that! 😄👍🙌

[@jaynesixx2185]

What a beautiful place!. Those smoked nuts must of been yummy, You guys always find nice food and coffee. The beach looks beautiful over there too. Hawaii 😄

[@thehappypear]

Ah an epic city altogether! 😄🙌👍

[@jaynesixx2185]

The Happy Pear You dudes are very lucky, I've never been out of Australia and I'm nearly 32.

[@vaniajorge1227]

[@thehappypear]

[@samstruyven8523]

Second brekkie 😂 if ever a sequel is made for the Lord of the Rings you guys should get the parts for Merry and Pippin! BTW thrilled you guys were invited to speak at websummit! I guess they want to keep an Irish vibe to it 😋

[@thehappypear]

Hahahahah yeah we were thrilled! 😄🙌👍

[@pypping]

I like your new travel vlog series. Despite living near Cologne I'd recommend Berlin to you. There are loads of good vegan locations.

[@thehappypear]

Cheers Heike! 😄👍🙌

[@juliamerchelska4255]

Lovely vlog!

[@thehappypear]

Sure thing def!!! 😄👍🙌

[@davidamaral3397]

Glad you enjoyed Lisbon!

[@thehappypear]

It was amazing! 😄👍🙌

[@sandrigomez2828]

love vlogs!!! it would be so cool thay you came to Galicia next time!!❤❤

[@thehappypear]

WOOO!!! 😄👍🙌

[@serinat2181]

Ooh the salted caramel bites look good 😍

[@thehappypear]

They're epic! 😄👍🙌

[@serinat2181]

The Happy Pear I bet they are!! Even though I'm not vegan, I have one close friend who is vegan and I think it takes a lot of perseverance xx

[@vishalkapoor8462]

You guys should have checked out Organi Chiado or The Food Temple. Two amazing places majority vegan food I found on the Happy Cow app. Highly recommended.

[@thehappypear]

Brill will do next time for sure! 😄👍🙌

[@LeeshaMcGuiness]

Sending loads of love! Wishing to eat all the food you did; minus the mushy burgers 😂😂

[@thehappypear]

Hahahahaha still tasted good! 😄🙌👍

[@andreamoboe]

Long pants! Woah!! 😀😆👍🏻👍🏻 Too bad about the range of vegan food there. Glad the chestnuts kept you satisfied-they looked amazing!

[@thehappypear]

Ah I'm sure there would have been a lot more option if we'd had time to explore! 😄👍🙌

[@caro1591]

Love the travel Vlog. I've just got back from a fabulous yoga retreat at Casona de Con in Mestas de Con, Asturias and ate the most amazing vegan food. Every meal was both healthy and delicious. Vegan sobrasada for breakfast, so much better than the original. Truly inspiring. If you think getting vegan is challenging, try looking for vegan or vegetarian gluten free. Namaste 🙏🏻

[@thehappypear]

Wow sounds absolutely incredible!! 😄👍🙌

[@caro1591]

The Happy Pear It was! Google osawa manzana and you'll find a great recipe for a portable oat based breakfast. Like a cross between flapjack and porridge. Even better with Elena's apple purée smeared on top. Recipe will be in Spanish but not a problem for you guys. 😄

[@sarahma]

When I was in Lisbon last year, the highlight was finding chestnut vendors on the street. I absolutely miss the taste of them.

[@thehappypear]

They're UNREAL! 😄🙌👍

[@Buzzardgirl13]

I love granola too!!! I prefer it to porridge. PS love your Toms xxxx

[@thehappypear]

Ah thanks a mill!! 😄👍🙌

[@lafujimama]

Those chestnuts looked amazing!!! 🌰 ❤️

[@thehappypear]

They really were! 😄👍🙌

[@GaeilgegoDeo]

You need to come to Portland, Oregon! Some good vegan/plant-based options.

[@thehappypear]

Brill! 😄👍🙌

[@paulkelly2390]

Great stuff lads living the life

[@thehappypear]

WOOOOO!!!! 😄👍🙌🙌

[@HannahJorgenFinn]

Come to Minneapolis! The Midwest has a not so great reputation for being not very vegan-friendly, but the Twin Cities have GREAT vegan food! We also have plenty of lakes to go swimming in, even during the winter! 😉☃️

[@deejfromwi7525]

Hannah Jorgenson, I live in the Twin Cities, would love to hear some of your recommendations for restaurants. I went to J. Selby's last week for the first time (for brunch). I'd like to go back for the dinner menu.

[@thehappypear]

Super stuff Hannah sounds brill! 😄👍🙌

[@HannahJorgenFinn]

I liked J. Selby's brunch too! I've only been once because I live in a western suburb, and it's kind of far, but I'd like to go again. I really used to love the Triple Rock Social Club, but they are closing/closed. I'm vegetarian/aspiring vegan, and so I'm not 100% the places I'll mention all have true vegan options. Pizza Luce for vegan pizza is my go-to delivery. Afro Deli on the UMN campus has some good vegetarian stuff. Amazing Thailand and Nico's Tacos (they have nopales!) are some other favorites. Muddy Waters in Uptown also has quite a few vegan menu items. Modern Times also has good brunch. I believe moto-i has vegan ramen, but don't quote me; same with Kiyatchi. My favorite restaurant, The Copper Hen, isn't really vegan-friendly, but they do make everything to order and are super willing to do substitutions, and quite a few things can be made vegetarian. If you eat dairy, their tomato-dill soup is to die for. My experience in the twin cities is that there are a lot of places that are happy to make things vegan/vegetarian without giving you too much gas about it, and quite a few places you wouldn't expect have vegan/veg menu sections that are surprisingly extensive. You just never know here. Also I'm just in love with our food scene - I moved here for grad school, and everyone talked so much crap about the food before I got here. Sorry, this was long! I'm hungry and love talking about food.

[@HannahJorgenFinn]

Oh, and most pubs have vegan burgers and often mock-duck tacos. I got so used to not being able to eat in pubs, and then all of a sudden here, everyone has a home-made vegan patty, etc.

[@HannahJorgenFinn]

Okay, last one, I promise: I'm sure you know, but Glam Doll has vegan donuts!

[@majo171278]

Amo Lisboa

[@NomadicVegan]

Eu também!

[@thehappypear]

💚💚💚💚💚

[@ladiesdays]

Shame the food offerings were so limited. Any Italian restaurant should be able to make you a pasta aglio e olio at the very least! Cheers from Toronto

[@thehappypear]

Ah we just didn't get a chance to explore more! 😄👍🙌

[@NomadicVegan]

There are lots of vegan-friendly restaurants in Lisbon, and some Italian places even offer pizza with vegan cheese! But you do have to seek out the veg-friendly ones.

[@mallabriola414]

Hahaha that clip in the beginning where it zooms in on them about to get in the water

[@thehappypear]

😂😂😂

[@zalexanna]

I wonder do you guys know happycow? (Sorry just seemed you lost with the vegan dinner ;) :P) I just know there are plenty awesome vegan places in Lisabon.

[@thehappypear]

Yeah we just didn't get a chance we were at the conference all the time! 😄👍🙌

[@madi972100]

Lisbon seems to be really cool for vegans too! I need to go back there. I've never been there since I become vegan. Thanks for sharing all these amazing foods and events. Really cool. You are two lucky guys to participate in all these amazing events and to travel.

[@thehappypear]

Epic glad you enjoyed!! 😄👍🙌

[@benlinzi8308]

YO DUDES! I've missed you guys the last week or so as i've been fasting for 7 days.....! Feel AMAZING doing it and finishing it! Great to be eating yummy vegan food again though....Have you guys tried any detoxes/fasts etc and if so which ones/how did they go? Keep inspiring ;-) Ben (Liverpooool)

[@thehappypear]

Ah you're fab! Check out our Q&As we talked about fasting in one of them 😄👍🙌

[@dombyrne1549]

Go visit Helsinki, there’s a fantastic food scene up there 🙃

[@thehappypear]

Super thanks a mil! 😄👍🙌

[@margarett_b]

Despite not being vegan, I love seeing your videos! Yore so positive! I hope you've had a great time there!

[@thehappypear]

Thanks a mil! 😄👍🙌

[@janetrugenius9345]

Vancouver, Canada!

[@thehappypear]

😄👍🙌

[@anafreitas1646]

I would love for my country to invest more in vertical natural farming... it would make it so much easier to have a healthy diet if vegetables and fruit prices and availability didn't fluctuate so much. There is still good farmland here but modern natural farming methods, except for a few visionaries, are not that much implemented.

[@thehappypear]

Absolutely 😄👍🙌

[@tonym5878]

First from outside Philadelphia! Cheers!!!

[@thehappypear]

Good on ya Tony! 😄👍🙌

[@Lolathebluesmartie]

You two are ✨ organically chaotic ✨

[@sarahandspices]

I loved the vlog! Im a surfer too:)

[@thehappypear]

Cheers Sarah you're brill! 😄👍🙌🙌

[@LaChicaMadrilena]

I wonder whether anybody in Portugal has developed vegan pasteis de nata! I loved them when I visited Lisbon a few years before turning vegan. It would be such a success!

[@NomadicVegan]

I've been looking for these since I moved to Lisbon in January. They're hard to find! There's a German woman in town named Yuki who is a vegan pastry chef and can make pasteis de nata on request. You can find her blog at allyouneedisveg[dot]com. Otherwise, Caitlin from The Vegan Word has a vegan recipe for pasteis de nata on her site, theveganword[dot]com, so you can make your own even when you're not in Lisbon!

[@NomadicVegan]

It's a shame you didn't have time to seek out some of Lisbon's amazing veggie restaurants! It's true that the traditional Portuguese cuisine is all animal-based, but there's a strong vegan scene in the capital. Let me know next time you're in town, and I'll take you out to dinner!

[@thehappypear]

Yeah we def would have liked to check it out more! 😄👍🙌

[@freakdancing4144]

Please come to Glasgow guys we have loads of vegan places!

[@IyeBako]

Thanks for sharing! Looked like good craic! I’m happy to know Al Gore is vegan.

[@thehappypear]

Brilliant sounds fab! 😄👍🙌
