London Vegan Restaurant Goes Backward
I noticed something today that left me feeling a little deflated.
Holy Carrot has opened a new location in Spitalfields Market, just a short walk from Liverpool Street station in central London. Some of you will remember that Holy Carrot first made waves with its Knightsbridge restaurant, a fully vegan dining destination that proudly showcased plant-based food in a refined and creative setting.
But the days of their menu being fully vegan appear to be over.

Vegan Chocolate for Monsters
There is a shop on Hoxton Street in London that you really need to experience for yourself.
Hoxton Street Monster Supplies is a wonderfully strange and imaginative retail space dedicated to serving the needs of monsters. Shelves are filled with curious sweets (sometimes vegan), candles, trinkets, books, writing materials, and household items that look as though they belong in the cupboard of a friendly creature who lives under your bed.

Legendary Vegan Grocery Store in Sheffield
I have a lot of affection for a vegan grocery store in Sheffield called All Carrot No Stick.
Long time readers will know that Sheffield holds a special place in my heart. I lived there for a while, I hosted my vegan beer fest there a few years back, and it was one of the cities that helped shape my love for independent vegan businesses such as All Carrot No Stick.

I haven’t done any sort of ‘best of’ or ‘wrap up’ blog post in a long time. That kind of content requires discipline and I just don’t possess enough of that quality.
Instead, here is a lazy list of 5 things recently eaten by me that were impressive AND that I would eat again.

Superb Vegan Bakery in Sheffield
I have a strong and deep connection with Sheffield, however I haven’t visited in a long time and things have changed a lot.
