Choosing where to eat when meeting up with the family
My hubby and I had planned to meet up with my cousin who doesn't live too far from Holborn. He is a vegetarian so choosing where to eat would be a treat! We'd get to search for veggie restaurants that had vegan options and support a small business at the same time! I love supporting non-chains!
Suraj came across a pop-up called Redemption Bar. It is London’s first alcohol free bar movement, which is designed to allow customers to enjoy themselves without enduring any negative effects of drinking alcohol.

I've heard lots of people say that the human body needs meat and animal products in order to perform well in sports activities. This is hard for me to comment on myself because I'm not very sporty. I never have been! So I was chuffed when I connected with Dhiren. He refers to himself as a plant-powered road and cross country endurance cyclist. I wanted to find out how eating vegan impacted his progress, (if at all), and then share this with you! I'll leave you with Dhiren and trust that you'll be inspired by what he has shared.

What is Chaas?
Chaas is often described as a yogurt drink. It's usually made of 4 ingredients - yogurt, water, salt and cumin. It is popular in the Indian states Gujarat and Rajasthan, where it is drunk with the main meal.
Before I shifted to a vegan diet in 2008, I used to drink Chaas quite often. Mum made her own yogurt at home and we'd make Chaas from it. However, after becoming aware of how the dairy industry works, there was no compromise. I had to shift to a vegan diet and therefore Chaas was out!
Find out how I excited I was to find a vegan alternative!
