Glasgow was voted the Most Vegan-Friendly City in the UK by PETA in 2013. With a huge culture scene and plenty of great bars and eateries, it was my kind of city.Continue reading Where to Find Vegan Food in Glasgow
The Best Vegan Food in Edinburgh
As I’m currently in the process of applying for British Citizenship, I’ve been without a passport for a couple of months. This consequently means no trips abroad. However, being without a passport has reminded me just how much there is to see within the UK and given me the perfect excuse to visit a few citiesContinue reading The Best Vegan Food in Edinburgh
Vegetarian Haute Cuisine at Vanilla Black
Vanilla Black had been at the top of my ‘must-try’ list of London’s vegetarian eateries for a very long time. A friend’s birthday (and subsequent birthday gift voucher) was finally excuse enough to visit the high-end restaurant that boasts prices a little heftier than those of my usual hang-outs.

For Matt’s birthday last year, we went to the well-renowned veggie restaurant The Gate in Islington, North London. And it was amazing.
The Mighty Fork – Mighty Good (Vegan) Hot Dogs!
I’ve been following The Mighty Fork on Twitter since they tweeted about Vegfest UK in March. Back then, their website was just a survey about the types of hot dogs and fillings you’d want to see when they started up their vegan hot dog stands. I excitedly filled out the survey and linked a friendContinue reading The Mighty Fork – Mighty Good (Vegan) Hot Dogs!
