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!

Read MoreT.O.F.U. Magazine changing the world for more than just the animals
I shifted from a vegetarian diet, to a vegan lifestyle, because I was unable to live a life of duality. I couldn't know about the pain, suffering, and entrapment that animals endure, for us to have particular foods or materials, and continue to be part of it. Although I do reflect on things, I wouldn't have started this journey if it wasn't for PeTA India, and the learning hasn't stopped there.
To me, T.O.F.U. Magazine is key in helping us connect the dots. It is a way of making us aware of topics that involve veganism and other forms of oppression. After all, if that's the kind of thing that bothers us, and if that's what we want to avoid being part of; T.O.F.U Magazine is a great way to make sure that we stay in the know. We may not be ready to make necessary changes straight away, but at least we'll be aware.
