Followup-To's directed to rec.food.veg.
The replies i received are appended (slightly edited).
If you are driving from New England, i recommend you plan a lunch stop
at Bloodroot, 85 Ferris St, Bridgeport, CT 06605 (203)576-9168.
It's one of the best vegetarian/natural food restaurants in the
Northeast (and better than Kung Food in San Diego). Run by a Feminist
collective. There is a small bookstore and t-shirt vendory attached.
It's about a mile off I-95 on the harbor. Take Exit 25 turning south
onto Fairfield Ave, at the third stop light take a left onto Ellsworth
Street, take the second left onto Thruston Street, right onto Harbor
Ave, left onto Ferris. Call first to make sure they are open. Last
time i was there, their hours were: Lunch: 11:30 to 2:30, Tues, Thurs,
Fri, Sat. Dinner: 6 to 9 Tues and Thurs, 6 to 11 Fri and Sat.
Brunch: 11:30 to 2:30 Sun.

Try calling the Baltimore Vegetarians at (301)752-VEGV.
Or write them at PO Box 1463, Baltimore, MD 21203.
They're an extremely well-informed group and have a
significant national presence through their (excellent)
Vegetarian Journal.
Inder

So i did. The August 88 issue has the following list of restaurants.
You can join for $18.00 single, $25.00 family a year, and get their
"Vegetarian Journal". Inder is right, it's an excellent publication.
Give it a try for a year!
i have not re-entered the places mentioned above. I will post several
copies of the list at USENIX.
