BREAKING NEWS: inside the new Temple of Seitan

London.

Here is the news you want.

After a year of enjoying runaway success at their Hackney location, vegan food superstars Temple of Seitan have announced the address and opening date for their second permanent location.

Temple of Camden is set to throw open its doors on Wednesday January 31, 2018 at 103A Camley Street N1C 4PF.

The images on this page give a tiny sneak preview of what the inside of the new Temple will look like and it looks fab.

So, we now know that the opening date is Wednesday January, 31, 2018 and the address is 103A Camley Street N1C 4PF… but what about the menu?!

I asked Rebecca, owner and legendary hero of Temple of Seitan, what she will be serving at Temple of Camden and here is what she disclosed:

It will be the same menu as Hackney plus the Hot Chicken Burger, the Cheeseburger menu, 50/50 chips, and popcorn snack packs. We will also have a deli section with coffee, bagels, toasted sandwiches, and sweet bakery treats!

OK. Are you pumped for this, London?!

Massive vegan pizza restaurant for London

Dear London.

Are you interested in hearing some of the best food-related news of all time?

Superstar Brighton pizza restaurant Purezza is opening a second location and it’s going to be in one of the most vegan-friendly locations on the planet. Camden!

The new plant-based Italian restaurant will seat 100​ ​diners​, and is based just 2​ ​minutes​ from Camden Town Tube Station. It will operate on two​ ​floors​.

Purezza will of course run an entirely vegan menu, with wholegrain sourdough pizzas, pastas, burgers, raw dishes, and gluten-free food.

The restaurant proudly states it has reverse engineered a number of animal-based foods including vegan meat and cheese in its lab in order to recreate them with plant-based ingredients. It’ll offer a range of artisan cheeses, including its famous houseblend rice mozzarella as standard for pizzas. It’ll also offer meats such as pancetta, mince and burger patties created with plant proteins.

On opening in London, Stefania​ ​Evangelisti​, co-founder of Purezza said:

London is a hub for both great food and innovation, meaning a London-based Purezza has always been an ambition of ours. We are at the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what we can create with plants, and we look forward to having London join us on the journey to see where things can develop next.

Purezza will be opening in Camden​ in February​ ​2018 and have ‘aggressive’ expansion plans and are currently seeking investment to grow​ ​into​ ​further​ ​cities​ around the UK.

Looks like the UK is witnessing the birth of its first vegan pizza chain!

London gets a vegan pie and mash shop

Do you know what is a great feeling?

I absolutely adore when a vegan business I love and support takes a big leap forward. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

Carla and Marco from Young Vegans have worked harder than most people I know to perfect the food they serve around London. Their pies and mash (served with gorgeous gravy) have been one of the smash hits at Hackney Downs Vegan Market where they trade every Saturday.

Seitan and ale, curry, all day breakfast, and sweet potato pies served by this street food trader are some of the finest food you’ll get anywhere in the UK. The fact that the people behind the pies are the nicest, funniest, and coolest folk I’ve met makes it even harder to stay away from their food.

I just want to see them do well.

Which is why I am thrilled to let you all know that Young Vegans now have a brand new pie shop in Camden!

Check out these photos from the recently opened outlet.

The shop is located in Camden Lock Market, right at the end of the narrow cobble stone alley between the Lock Market and The Stables Market. Click here to see the location thanks to Google Maps.

Vegan food in Camden

When someone describes what they cook as filthy vegan junk food, my interest couldn’t be higher.

Biff’s Jack Shack is a decadent London-based vegan street food business making crispy fried fillet burgers and wings out of jackfruit. They have been doing a lot of impressing people around the capital and now have set up shop in Camden for the entire month of August.

New vegan burger bar for London

London. You are on a roll.

A brand new vegan burger business is set to open on July 1, 2017 (this Saturday!) in Camden Market and the food sounds and looks lovely.

VBurger is the brainchild of north Londoners Reuven Cohen and Amir Wayman, who have teamed up with chef Yossi Edri to open their first vegan burger bar in Camden Market.

The pair state that this is only the first of several VBurger outlets they plan to open, so it definitely feels as though London has some special to look forward to.

The menu being launched in Camden includes a beetroot burger, a falafel burger and a seitan cutlet burger. You can dress your burger up with vegan cheese or avocado and make a complete meal with skin-on fries, sweet potato wedges, coleslaw and decadent brownies.

Even better news involves the menu expanding some time after opening to include another five burgers.

This is fabulous news for vegan Londoners. We get a fast food burger joint from this Saturday and it looks like it is going to be a big deal. Get along 7 days a week between 10am and 7pm.
