Be a vegan winner by rejecting Trump

by

Hey. This piece of news makes me happy.

The gorgeous Blacksmith & Toffeemaker vegan pub in Islington is getting in the spirit of rejecting fascism by rewarding their customers who make the effort to protest Donald Trump’s UK visit.

As you might be able to see in the Instagram post above, you get 2-for-1 discount on all food and bottled beer at the vegan pub for the rest of July 2018 if you can prove to the staff you were involved in protesting Donald Trump and his racist, sexist, transphobic, and basically hate-filled existence.

This line from the pub’s announcement has me getting all teary:

Bigotry should not go unchallenged and we’d like to show our appreciation for anyone going out of their way to make a stand.

Come the fuck on, Blacksmith & Toffeemaker!

If you want to demonstrate against the U.S. President’s visit, you can find a list of all planned public protests online here.

Vegan food in a vegan pub

London, do you know how good you have got it?

If you haven’t been along to the Club Mexicana kitchen located in vegan pub The Spread Eagle, you don’t know what you are missing.

It is sensational.

I popped along for the first time yesterday and was thrilled by the incredible food, the huge range behind the completely vegan bar, and the super cool ambience of the place.

Take a look at some of my photos from the day.

Everything being served by Club Mexicana and The Spread Eagle is exceptional and world class, from the smoked pineapple cosmo to the popcorn chick’n salad.

If you live locally to the pub, I recommend you make it your local. If you aren’t local, grab your Oyster card and get over there ASAP.

You can see the exact location of the pub online here thanks to Goole Maps.

You can and should follow both businesses on Instagram: Club Mexicana and The Spread Eagle.

Extra news: Club Mexicana will be serving their incredible cuisine this weekend (Saturday July 14, 2018) at the 6th annual London Vegan Beer Fest. Click here to buy tickets.

Club Mexicana at Spread Eagle

by

A few months ago I posted abut new vegan venue, The Spread Eagle.

This 100% vegan pub in Homerton, east London has been blowing people away with not only their gorgeous selection of cocktails and drinks, but also the NEXT LEVEL food coming out of the pub’s kitchen thanks to Club Mexicana.

Looking at the photos below makes me a little emotional.

I can remember going to one of the first ever Club Mexicana pop up events many years ago at Black Cat Cafe and to see the progress the business has made is startling.

Superstar business owner and devoted vegan badass Meriel has made Club Mexicana one of the most recognisable and adored food providers in London. She has cemented her brand as a recognised signpost for taste and quality. She has inspired dozens of traders to play catch up with her branding and market positioning. She is recognised by non-vegan organisers as one of our business leaders.

Before you drool over some of these exclusive food photos from inside The Spread Eagle, please take a moment to follow Club Mexicana on Instagram.

Vegan pub food in London

by

Here is a quick little bite sized chunk of news you can eat.

I’m just about to head back to Mexico City for six months so I gathered my friends in London for a farewell party at The Blacksmith and The Toffeemaker in Islington.

This pub on St John Street is a gorgeous pub that has just switched it’s entire food menu to be 100% vegan.

Check out this short Instagram video I made showing the current menu.

The polenta fries with added cheese were fabulous and I loved the toasted sandwich.

Not all of the alcohol being served is vegan, however they assure me this is being worded on and will be rectified soon.

In the meantime, all of the booze that is vegan suitable is clearly labelled.
