A Proper Vegan Roast in a Welsh Pub
Tucked away in the small Welsh town of Cwmavon, not far from Port Talbot in the preserved county of West Glamorgan, is a local pub called The Brit.

A Legend In Glasgow
Mono in Glasgow has always been a special place for me.
It’s been far too long since I set foot in that glorious space. Years, in fact. Pre-COVID. But still, I think about it often. I miss it. Mono isn’t just a café bar or a music venue. It’s a cornerstone. A cultural institution. A big-hearted, fried vegan fish-slinging legend in the middle of Glasgow.

Club Mexicana On The Road
Club Mexicana is mentioned a lot on this blog.
The Mexican-inspired comfort food business has been serving London for more than 10 years and their loaded nachos are a FGV favourite.
