Ahimsa The Vegan Café is Pinner's first vegan café and it was a success!

October 27, 2025 / Heena Modi

When I found out that a vegan cafe was opening in Pinner, (North West London), I was so excited! I've been there about 5 times since it's opened and every time, I'm pleasantly surprised by how much it's evolved. The staff are lovely, the cafe is bursting because it's so popular, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the food is delicious!

Enjoy this interview style article, through which one of the owners will you tell you everything you need to know, and more; about Ahimsa Vegan Cafe.

Over the last year, I stopped using skincare products because my skin had become sensitive due to having Long COVID. However, something had changed and my skin was ready to be exposed to other products. I wanted a skincare regime which was suited to my skin so I got in touch with Plantopia and Grace replied. She was amazing! In this article, I’ll explain why Grace was so awesome and I’ll tell you all about Plantopia.

Honestly tasty: award-winning vegan cheese, made locally

April 19, 2022 / Heena Modi

I found out about Honestly Tasty from a friend on Twitter.

I didn’t know much about them but she’d sung their praises so much, I decided to order some of their range for the big cheeseboard I organised when my brother-in-law came over.

After that, I reached out to Honestly Tasty and asked for an interview-style article, so that we could all get to know them better.
