Dining Out Isn't Our First Choice... But When We Do...
Sometimes you must go out to eat
Sue is an outstanding cook and since she is vegetarian (allergic to meat, fish, and chicken) and Paul is mostly vegetarian, eating at home is simpler and generally better. Checkout our cooking website.
Vegetarianism is a conscious way of eating, and involves the practice of following a diet which includes fruits, vegetables, cereal grains, nuts, and seeds, with or without dairy products or eggs. A vegetarian does not eat meat, including game, poultry, fish, crustacea and shellfish.
An ovo-lacto vegetarian (or lacto-ovo vegetarian) is a vegetarian who does not eat animal flesh of any kind, but is willing to consume dairy and egg products. The terminology stems from the Latin lacto meaning "milk", ovo meaning "egg", and the English term vegetarian (see Etymology of vegetarianism for the etymology of "vegetarian"), so as giving the definition of a vegetarian diet containing milk and eggs.

Preveza Mediterranean Restaurant (Los Alamitos)
The building once was a fast food joint so when Preveza came into being being we ignored it for many months. One afternoon we decided to "try it" and we are hooked. The menu is so diverse, loads of veggie foods and plenty to eat. The wine prices are amazingly low and the service always great. It is now pretty bust so we go mid-afternoon or early evening. Highly recommended.
