Shoreditch loses vegan food stand

Remember how excited we all were when the vegan kebab stand launched in Shoreditch?

These delicious wraps from What The Pitta took Shoreditch by storm, but sadly a lot of good things have to end.

PUMP was the food court hosting What The Pitta but it appears the organisers had to close down the entire complex. This means What The Pitta was forced out of Shoreditch, which is obviously sad news for their hundreds of loyal customers.

As upsetting as this news is, all is not lost.

What The Pitta now has a permanent location in the Boxpark Croydon complex and in addition, if you live around the Hackney area, their completely-satisfying food is available for delivery.

Get over to the What The Pitta website for links showing the Croydon location and how to order in East London for delivery.

RIP PUMP. Long live What The Pitta!

Vegan food in Munich

If you ever visit the German city of Munich, you MUST make time to buy yourself one of these incredible vegan kebabs.

Josh and I found ourselves with a few hours to spare in Munich last month before heading to Passau to board a vegan river cruise on the Danube. A quick scan of the HappyCow app informed us that right next to the Munich hauptbahnhof was a kebab shop offering vegan kebabs called Royal Kebabhaus.

Although the shop served meat, the friendly server was quick to assure us which options were vegan. In fact, they were so proud of their vegan-friendliness it was plastered all over the exterior of the kebab shop.

We both ordered the vegan durum kebab which consisted of thinly-shredded seitan rolled up in flatbread with fresh salad and house-made sauces. I think the seitan was made by Wheaty but even if it wasn’t, it was the perfect combination of crispy and chewy with an incredible taste. Not being one to show restraint, I also ordered a vegan pide topped with seitan, served with a selection of fresh salads and sauces. So, so good!
