Hmm....well it depends on how you want to come off.

If you don't know much about veganism and vegan culture and would like to learn from her, that means admitting to her that you know shit ATM, I would confess my ignorance and ask her to pick a good place and then ask a lot of questions about veganism there. This will create good conversation, even if you are just nodding your head and asking questions, and will allow her to share something she loves and has knowledge of to you. This is assuming she is proud of her veganism. If she isn't, then it might annoy her to really hound the subject so test the waters. I personally would do this.

If you want to impress her on your knowledge of veganism, heavily research everything you can about veganism, look at reviews, and hope you pick a good restaurant. This is a bit fake IMO, and I wouldn't do this unless you are either trying to play a dominance role or actually know a lot about veganism. This tends to backfire because if she finds out you really don't know much about veganism and pretending you do just to impress her, don't expect it to end well.


Also, if you are not a vegan and have no interest in vegan food I would recommend going to the restaurant with a little bit in your stomach so if you really don't like what you order, make sure you at least order something though, you are not really hungry for the rest of the night and make her watch you eat later.
