Amazing vegan food in downtown Mexico City

I make no secret of my love for Mexico City.

It is my favourite place on the planet and where I know live for at least half of every year.

One of the reasons to adore the city as much as I do is surely the wide range of vegan food available here. Over the past five years or so, Mexico City has become a global capital when it comes to veganism.

If you ever find yourself in the historic centre of the city, make time to eat at Vegamo.

This cafe is relaxed and is run by the friendliest people you will meet anywhere.

The food is also superb.

Waffle sandwiches, protein bowls, smoothies, cheesecakes, and more. All vegan, all delicious.

Follow Vegamo on Instagram and be sure to add them to your ‘must eat’ list.

Waffle sandwich delight

Boring sandwiches are redundant.

Waffle sandwiches are the future!

My buddy Ricardo and I visited one of the best vegan eateries in Mexico City earlier today, Vegamo. This place is packed solid with delicious dishes and cool drinks. I just can’t get enough of it and the owner are the friendliest people you could hope to meet.

Today I decided to not do my usual trick of playing it safe. I have a habit of always getting the same thing, but I pushed myself to take a leap.

And I am beyond glad I did. Please pay due respect to these AMAZING waffle sandwiches that Ricardo and I scoffed down.

Yep. They tasted as fab as they look.

I know most of my readers aren’t heading to Mexico City anytime soon, but I wanted to share in the hope of spreading waffle sandwich hysteria far and wide. I wanna see homemade waffle sandwiches flooding social media.

Extra note: my sandwich was called Yoda and the waffle dough was coloured/flavoured with spinach. Divine. Ricardo went for the Chewbacca.

Extra extra note: Ricardo is the extremely talented designer of the Vegan Beer Fest UK posters/logos for last year and he is set to once again design them all in 2017. Yay for talent!
