love ♥ living ♥ vegan
Following a plant-based or vegan lifestyle, is about food, drink, clothes, shoes, body treatments, hair products and more.
It's a conscious decision to think, walk and possibly, talk a better lifestyle.
I support individuals who are thinking about making the shift, as well as, those who have already begun their plant-based journey.

I'd heard murmurs about Old School Vegetarian Restaurant, and then ended up there by accident! A few of us had gone to Kew Gardens, and although we'd discussed having dinner together, I didn't realise they had planned to take me there, and they didn't know that I'd wanted to eat there for a while!

Cristiano Vitelli is a professional pizza chef, and he's one of the owners. He has been exploring going vegan since the summer of 2016. In 2017, he took part in Veganuary and decided to make a permanent shift to veganism. He told me that he couldn't be vegan, whilst cooking and serving non-vegan food, so he transformed PickyWops into a fully vegan business.

Chai Naasto have a branch in Beckenham and Hammersmith. What's different about the one they've just opened in Harrow, is that it's a pure vegetarian restaurant! The menu is egg-free, meat-free, they can make dishes without onion and garlic, and they have lots of vegan options too. They have also made it super easy to order, by marking available 'options' clearly on the menu.
They had to turn people away, because they were so busy!

Where to go for a 'special' vegan meal
I wanted to go somewhere extra special for my birthday. Somewhere beautiful, where we could indulge in different foods. I contacted a few restaurants, asking if they had/would create a vegan tasting menu for two.

What's so good about Villa Pompei in Pinner, London?
Villa Pompei is an Italian restaurant that's located in Pinner. It's spacious, and the seating areas are set up, so that large parties have a slightly separate section. Their menu is vast, but the best part of Villa Pompei, is that they don't make their food in advance. This means that they can veganise a huge amount of items on their menu, and it's not bother to them, because they were going to make it from scratch anyway!

Suraj and I had been on a pilgrimage that involved a lot of driving, and some trekking. The trip was amazing, for a number of reasons, but by the end of it, I couldn't face another 'Indian' meal! Why? Every single day, between May 24th and June 10th, we had some form of 'Indian' food for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
AnnaMaya gave us what we were craving before we returned to London.

My hubby, father -in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law and nephew went to the fun fair together. After a few hours, we were hungry, and we ended up in Mumbai Local. I don't know if my brother-in-law and his missus had been there before, if they had it in mind to try, or if it's one of the first restaurants we came across. Either way, I'm so glad we went there.

The first Veggie Pret opened in 2016. It was located in Soho and it was a pop up. It was a great success, and has gone from being pop up to becoming permanent! in April 2017, another branch was opened in Shoreditch. It looks pretty slick doesn't it?
Find out why it's such a success...

There was a time that a friend and I were in Harrogate, and both of us suddenly felt Hangry! We were amidst roadworks and scaffolding and couldn't see any restaurants near us. This was made worse by the fact that we didn't know where we were, and neither of us have a good sense of direction!
Luckily, we spotted Zizzi and had a delicious meal there. I was so impressed by the sorbet being so deliciously different; I ordered it twice!
That was a number of years ago and things have changed a lot since then. Find out how Zizzi keeps on making a positive and exciting steps to make vegans meals even better!
