Holy Carrot has opened a new location in Spitalfields Market, just a short walk from Liverpool Street station in central London.

I absolutely adore being part of the regular supper club series at Unity Diner in London.
Not only do these events raise funds for Surge Sanctuary (I wrote about them yesterday) but they are also a showcase of just how special plant-based dining can be.
If you want to see what all the excitement is about, I’m hosting a Spring-themed dinner at Unity in a few weeks.

This isn’t a big news day around FGV HQ today, but I do want to remind you about one of my favourite vegan bakeries in London.
