Vegan in Prague: Lifehouse

Posted on June 24, 2019 by Jenny

UPDATE: this restaurant closed in 2023 I’ve been stuck in something of a food rut lately – too tired to dig into a new cookbook, always preferring the comfort of recipes that I know and love. And even though the … Continue reading →

Vegan in Birmingham: Natural Bar & Kitchen

Posted on June 10, 2019 by Jenny

UPDATE: THIS RESTAURANT CLOSED IN 2020 As a rule, I don’t trust eateries with the word “natural” in the title. For one thing, as scientist Dr HH delights in telling me, ‘natural’ is not synonymous with ‘good for you’. “Arsenic … Continue reading →

Posted on June 3, 2019 by Jenny

It’s quite tricky finding a restaurant in Prague that serves both meaty and vegan dishes, so discovering such a place is always wildly exciting. I prefer giving my money to all-vegan establishments, but sometimes you need somewhere that will please … Continue reading →

Vegan in Berlin: Secret Garden

Posted on May 13, 2019 by Jenny

A few years ago I tried the best vegan sushi ever at Edamame Vegan Sushi in Warsaw, and since then I’ve been hoping to recapture that brilliance. Unfortunately it hasn’t quite happened yet, but Secret Garden in Berlin made a … Continue reading →

Vegan in Berlin: Brammibal’s Donuts (Again!)

Posted on April 29, 2019 by Jenny

The fact that I love donuts has probably not escaped your attention. They are exquisite! In Prague we have two solid options for vegan donuts, but they’re not quite in the same league as Brammibal’s Donuts in Berlin. The donuts … Continue reading →

Vegan in Berlin: Ataya Caffe

Posted on April 15, 2019 by Jenny

UPDATE: this restaurant closed in 2023 Berlin is just a few hours away from Prague and reasonably priced via bus or train, so Dr HH and I have been there enough times now that we don’t even have to pretend … Continue reading →

Vegan in Berlin: Lily Burger

Posted on April 8, 2019 by Jenny

I think a case can be made that certain trendy foods are designed more with social media in mind than actual feasting. That’s probably the case for freak shakes, and I suspect also for the burgers that are stacked up … Continue reading →
