Terre a Terre (Great Growers Menu) http://www.terreaterre.co.uk/ 71 East Street Brighton East Sussex, BN1 1HQ England My first experience at Terre a Terre was my 22nd birthday, a thousand years ago, and I’ve enjoyed the occasional treat at the all vegetarian restaurant since. One of my top global favourites when it comes to dining out, [...]
Manna Vegetarian http://www.mannav.com/ 4.5 out of 5 stars 4 Erskine Road Primrose Hill London, NW3 3AJ England Manna classes itself as casual, but dishes up anything but. Omnivores and vegetarians alike will find something on the restaurant’s lavish menu, and can expect a top notch meal without the pretentiousness of your typical fine dining fayre. [...]
Darbster http://darbster.com 3.5 out of 5 stars 8020 South Dixie Highway West Palm Beach Florida, 33405 USA Darbster is an all vegan West Palm beach based establishment which sits alongside a picturesque canal. Coupled with its other neighbour, the Dixie Highway, the location seems like it should be a nuissance. It works well, however, and [...]

In the midst of the ash cloud produced by Iceland’s Eyjafjallajökull volcano, the Guardian’s Word of Mouth blog asks “Can fruit and vegetable shortages turn us on to local food?” This is of course referring to the amount of food shipped in from abroad; your pre-packed Marks and Sparks fruit salads, those tart summer berries, [...]
Many of my readers are aware I make 99% of all tofu I use, and much of the soy milk I consume as well. I store massive quantities of soy beans under the sofa so I can enjoy some of my favourite foods cheaply and conveniently (really, making tofu is so much less complicated than [...]
Vegans and vegetarians alike understand the absurdity of some statements which certain individuals somehow deem necessary to not only process in their questionable minds but then actually say out loud. Not that I’m in any way skilled in the art of saying things that make sense, but I do like to at least vaguely know [...]
Each Christmas Eve we partake in a family gathering at Mr MessyCook’s parents’ house, a meat-saturated event. To be honest my mother-in-law is very good about making sure I have absolutely tonnes to eat, and one year she even used soya mince in the main chili pot. Everyone ate it without complaint; the whining came [...]
Isa and Terry have done it again. Made my life complete, I mean. If you’ve never bought one of their vegan cookbooks, it’s never too late to try, and I promise you won’t be disappointed. For anyone new to veganism, considering the lifestyle, or who simply wants junk food with less of the saturated junk [...]
Having just returned from a brief visit to my parents’ place in the states, I’ve come to realise one thing: Daiya “cheese” needs to become available in the United Kingdom. Needs to. Even my omnivorous father thought the mozzarella was an acceptable substitute on pizza. Luckily, the company answered my request in a way to [...]
One of my biggest complaints about the US is the incredible quantity of poor quality food. Fast food establishments and chain restaurants adorn every corner, and so few people seem to be bothered about what they’re putting into their bodies (how else could these places exist?). Luckily there are some gems, the Whole Foods and [...]
Is Alcohol Vegan? The veggie offender here generally comes in the form of the fining agent, but can sometimes be directly related to the ingredient list (e.g campari is made with cochineal. See above). It’s also possible that anti foaming agents used in alcohols may be un-veggie. Non vegan fining agents include things like isinglass [...]
