In the history of breaking news on this blog, I’m not sure I’ve ever written anything this exciting.
Sit down.
London, you are about to get the world’s first 100% vegan fried chicken shop.
OK. Now you can leap to your feet and fist pump like a champ. This news is seriously the most exciting thing to happen to anyone. EVER.
If you visit this part of the Internet with any regularity, you will know that I am obsessed with the crispy savoury perfection that is Temple of Seitan. Their range of deep fried seitan snacks, tubs of mac n cheese and filled sandwiches is in the top 5 things to eat on the planet in my (always humble) FGV opinion.
There is world class and then a little higher up in the clouds, there is Temple of Seitan.
Enough of this adulation. I asked Rebecca of Temple of Seitan to tell me what the heck is going on and she said:
In January 2017, we’ll be opening London’s (and maybe the world’s!) 1st 100% vegan chicken shop. We’re looking forward to providing a vegan alternative for Londoners craving a bit of takeaway.
She is so relaxed about it. I would have added in words such as ‘pioneers’, ‘earth-altering’ and ‘exceptionally unique’.
Clear all your January plans. Make room for the new fried chicken shop by Temple of Seitan.
This is not a drill.

Extra note: Catch Temple of Seitan at my Vegan Christmas Market on Saturday December 17, 2017. Details here and you can RSVP on Facebook.
