Every now and then a memory of good eating hits me so clearly I can almost taste it again.
That happened to me recently when I caught a glimpse online of the new dishes at Twelve Eatery in Bournemouth.

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.
Now people outside of London have the chance to find out why I’m always shouting about Club Mex thanks to their upcoming festival tour around (selected parts of) the UK.

Meat Eaters Can Challenge Racism Too
I’ve been vegan for over 25 years. I’ve dedicated most of my adult life to speaking out about the exploitation of animals, celebrating plant-based innovation, and building inclusive spaces for people trying to make kinder choices.
So I hope what I’m about to say isn’t taken lightly. Comparing meat-eating to racism is not cool.

The Cheese Cellar at Purezza Is Serving Underground
Tucked away underneath one of London’s best-loved vegan restaurants is a treasure trove of dairy-free decadence that deserves a bit more noise made about it.
Yes, I’m talking about The Cheese Cellar, the underground delight hidden beneath Purezza in Camden. You might know Purezza for their game-changing pizzas, but if you haven’t ventured down the stairs and into their cheese-filled secret spot, let this be your polite-but-firm nudge.

Ten Years of Drooling Over Vegan Food Together
A decade ago, a friend of mine moved to London and quickly realised something was missing. They wanted to go out. They wanted to eat good food. And they didn’t want to do it alone.
So they started a little group called Drooling Vegans.

Incredible Vegan Ethiopian Food Off Brick Lane
London is stuffed to the rafters with places to eat, but every now and then you walk into a restaurant that reminds you how food can be elevated to another level.
That’s exactly how I felt when I walked into Merkamo on historic Hanbury Street, just off the always-buzzing Brick Lane.

Half A Burger, Half A Victory?
News just landed that Teesside University has signed a deal to serve hybrid burgers and sausages to over 20,000 students. Myco, the company behind the Hooba range made from vertically farmed oyster mushrooms, is now mixing its fungi with beef to create what it calls a planet-friendly option.
The logic? If meat eaters can’t give it up, why not meet them halfway?
