It’s Friday once again, which means I am here with some tips for the weekend.
Check them out below.
Animal Aid show
Roll up, roll up for one of the biggest and best cruelty-free shows anywhere on the planet.
Get yourself to Kensington Town Hall this Sunday (December 7, 2014) for Animal Aid’s Christmas Fayre 2014.
Need convincing? Here are some reasons why you should be there:
One night only
Manchester, here is something fun and tasty for you to take part in next week. For people reading this from other parts of the country and the world, organise cool vegan events like this!
A group called The Flanagan Collective is presenting a super fun-sounding dinner show with a tasty vegan menu. You can enjoy an interactive performance of one of the most-loved traditional tales as you eat and drink.
Sounds fun!
Read below for the finer details about the event, including the menu:
Chocolate forever
This is my second post about chocolate within a week, but I am unrepentant. Chocolate is worth covering twice in a seven day period. I’ll fight whoever says it isn’t.
I’m not sure what I have been doing with my life to somehow let this gorgeous brand of chocolate slip past me. Have you tried any of the vegan flavours listed below? (Be warned: it is a long list and will kickstart your cravings in a major way)
Vegan coach trip
I adore creating events that give the vegan community fun opportunities to socialise while supporting vegan businesses at the same time.
You knew that, right? Well, check this out.
I am thrilled to announce the first ever Fat Gay Vegan day trip. It is a Vegan Coach Trip!
This is your opportunity to spend a day with a coach load of compassionate people, get in some last minute Christmas shopping, eat delicious food and support vegan businesses.
Here are the details.
Delicious vegan pizza
Yesterday was a pivotal moment in the shaping my view of eating out in central London.
Why? Pizza!
Vegetables by bicycle
Are you a busy Londoner who just can’t find time to go shopping for vegetables?
Here is a solution that won’t cost the Earth!
Warm tofu salad
Many UK vegans are used to relying on chain restaurant Wagamama when they are out and about. With more than 100 locations around the country, it seems you are never too far from one of these pan-Asian outlets.
I have previously featured a brief post about the Wagamama chain in which Josh gave his opinion on the plant-based offerings. You can read that here or keep scrolling down this page to see the brand new vegan dish added to the menu.
