★ READER RECOMMENDATIONS

Paraguayan food tends to be meat-based, however a vegan reader found plenty of choice while staying in Asuncion. These are her top tips:
ALMA ZEN
My favourite vegan restaurant. About 5 options to choose from each day with the specials changing daily
Mon-Fri 11am to 3pm
Cerro Cora 1736 Casi, Asu 1836
LA VIDA VERDE
Vegetarian restaurant with very pleasant dining area and and all Asian Buffet (Chinese and Japaneses food mainly)
11.30am to 3pm
Austria Asu
WABI SABI
Vegetarian Chinese/Japanese off the menu. A bit expensive but nice.
Mon-Sat 11am to 2.30 and 6pm to 23.30
Rca Francesca 266, Asu

BAR LA ESQUINA
Very reasonably priced buffet with both meat & veg options/salads/potatoes/rice/pasta dishes. They weigh the plates as with most of the buffets I went to. My plate cost about Gs20,000 + home made lemonade for about Gs10,000
Open daily except Sundays and Thursdays from 8am to 4pm
