Madison, Wisconsin is fast becoming a vegan-friendly city with a handful of vegan/vegetarian restaurants and coffee shops, Alliance for Animals' annual Vegantines Dinner and Dance, our Vegan Chili Cook-Off, and Spring Fiesta, the Madison Area Vegetarian Meetup Group, which holds vegan get-togethers regularly, and our first Mad City Vegan Fest during the summer of 2011. It's not San Francisco, but we're doing our best!
