Vegan Indian restaurant in Mexico City

by

I’ve long been singing the praises of the vegan food scene in Mexico City and it certainly isn’t slowing down.

Vegan bakeries, restaurants, cafés, and events are popping up all over the Mexican capital.

One of the newest additions is Naan Mexico, a vegan Indian restaurant located in the Santa María la Ribera neighbourhood.

Located on the side of Parque Santa María la Rivera – San Cosme (a small park and square just a one minute walk from San Cosme Metro station), the restaurant is a casual space with bright paint and a pleasant view of the square.

The menu is relatively small for an Indian restaurant, but the food is affordable and tasty.

I enjoyed samosas with chutney, a glass of mango lassi, and a bowl of Kashmiri curry.

It is a great option for that part of the city which has been a little lacking in vegan restaurants.

You can see the exact location of Naan Mexico thanks to Google Maps.

Be sure to follow Naan Mexico on Instagram.

Amazing vegan food in Mexico City

by

I spend a lot of time in Mexico City so it is always a thrill for me to try new vegan eateries in the mega city.

And the thrill rarely comes bigger than when I ate at Plan V.

Plan V is a relatively new cafe located in the trendy Condesa neighbourhood of Mexico City. The tree-lined streets are home to a huge number of cafes, restaurants, boutiques, and bakeries. Basically, it’s a visually pleasing place to spend an afternoon.

The menu at Plan V is classic Mexican cuisine done vegan. It is exquisite.

Every single thing that landed on our table was delicious, fresh, and well presented. Check out the images below to see what we tried.

Yes, it all tasted as good as it looks.

If you are in Mexico City, I can’t recommend this food highly enough. Plan V is the best vegan cafe in the city.

You can follow Plan V on Instagram and see the exact location thanks to Google Maps.

Vegan eatery in Mexico City

by

Mexico City is my home for at least half of each year, so I’m thrilled that it is also one of the vegan capitals of the planet.

The latest addition to the huge number of vegan eateries is the bricks and mortar restaurant of famed vegan street food trader Pan D’Monium.

Pan D’Monium has built a loyal customer following with their super cute street stall on Orizaba in Colonia Roma.

The women-owned and run business has now expanded with a permanent location, taking over a restaurant space on busy Chilpancingo. They are keeping everyone happy with pizza, burgers, hot dogs, shakes, and more.

I dropped by a few days ago to congratulate them on their new endeavour and of course to eat and drink.

Amazing vegan restaurant in Mexico

by

If you’ve been in the same room as me during the past few years, you will have probably heard me talking about how incredible the vegan food scene is in Mexico City. I never stop banging on about it.

As if I wasn’t impressed enough with the food scene in this mega city, Vegan INC had to go and take things to a whole new level tonight.

Situated in a posh shopping mall in the upmarket area of Polanco, Vegan INC is a casual vegan dining restaurant with two locations in the northern city of Monterrey. This Mexico City location has been open for a few months with a second outlet set to open later this year.

The food is absolutely exquisite. Take a look at some of the dishes we devoured.

My first time at this gorgeous #vegan restaurant in Mexico City called Vegan INC. @veganinc_cdmx

Out table was overflowing with out of this world plant-based cuisine.

And in an FGV first, we were too full for cake so I have definite plans to head back to Vegan INC as soon as possible to try out the impressive dessert case.

Get to Mexico. Dine with Vegan INC. Follow them on Instagram.

Best vegan sandwich on the planet?

Is this the best vegan sandwich on the planet?

Please post a link to any sandwich you think is superior.

Just had this beyond amazing #vegan lasagne burger delivered thanks to @losloosers #cdmx

Your eyes are not deceiving you. That is vegan lasagne inside a roll. If you look carefully you will also see fresh green beans.

I recently devoured this glory thanks to Los Loosers, the pioneering vegan food business in Mexico City that delivers all orders via bicycle. I’m fairly certain this was the finest sandwich I have ever been served.

Even if you have no current plans to visit Mexico City, you should follow Los Loosers on Instagram to keep track of their beyond delicious creations.

New vegan street food in Mexico

by

Mexico is too intense. The speed at which the vegan scene is expanding is mind-boggling.

Today I found out about a new vegan hamburger and hot dog stand called Pan D-Monium that opened only two months ago.

Situated in the Roma Norte district, Pan D’Moniun is serving up simple yet delicious vegan comfort food near the corner of Colima and Orizaba.

Check out these photos.

Is this the best new vegan eatery on the planet?

by

To be genuinely impressed by a new vegan eatery is a rare occurrence. Yes, I know many places do a good job of feeding us compassionate people and a good job is often just what you need. I’ll even return to a café that does a good job.

What I want to talk about here is when you dine with an establishment and they blow you away. The service is exceptional, the decor is gorgeous and everything you try from the menu is above average.

People of the Internet, please meet Elk Bistro of Mexico City.

Elk Bistro is a joint venture between super talented chef Veronica and the owners of vegan grocery store, VeganVille.

The bistro opened mere weeks ago in conjunction with the second location of VeganVille but you would be forgiven if you thought the eatery was a long time established. Every single part of what they do had been polished to perfection before they opened the doors to diners.

The central courtyard is immaculately renovated with a grand Canary Island date palm towering over proceedings. Cutlery and tableware is stylish, while the friendly people looking after you make you feel like nothing is too much trouble.

And now the food. I can’t do it more justice than the following photos.

Every dish placed on my table at Elk Bistro has been exquisite.

Dining with Elk is made even more special by the fact that you have to walk through a 100% vegan grocery store to exit. Talk about exit through the gift shop!

VeganVille is stacked solid with vegan cheeses, meats, pantry items, personal care products and more. There is even a cute deli/takeaway food counter positioned at the front of the store. It is an extension of Elk and it is here where you can pick up gorgeous cream cakes and ham and cheese croissants before you depart.

If you have been considering a trip to Mexico City, Elk is the last piece of convincing you need.

Follow Elk on Instagram.

100% vegan café in Mexico impresses

by

I’m currently living in one of the largest cities on the planet and getting from one part of Mexico City to another can take hours. Traffic, congestion, overcrowding and people everywhere means you often have to plan well ahead to get somewhere on time.

The size of the city can be daunting so imagine how fabulous it is having one of the best vegan eateries in the megalopolis less than a ten minute walk from my front door.

Temictli is a friendly café perched on the corner of two incredibly busy streets on the fringes of the trendy Condesa neighbourhood. They serve freshly cooked food ranging from beautifully dressed salads to handmade seitan hot dogs with all the trimmings.

The photos below show a selection of dishes I’ve gobbled up in the few weeks since I first got acquainted with Temictli and its wonderful owners Rosa Linda and Elizabeth.

Follow Temictli on Instagram for more mouthwatering photos and be sure to either dine with them or take advantage of their bike delivery service if you find yourself in Mexico City.
