by

The future is here and it tastes like brioche.

Superstar vegan eatery Make No Bones of Sheffield has been collaborating with local bakery Fletchers to design the perfect vegan brioche.

And guess what? They have done it!

Don’t they look sensational?!

I asked Lauren from Make No Bones to give me a brief comment on the brioche launch and she said:

From our point of view, we are dead excited that there is a demand for vegan brioche and how far the accessibility of vegan food has come!

The Make No Bones vegan brioche buns launched in 400 Tesco stores today (January 27, 2020). I haven’t seen a store list yet but I have heard that they are mostly in Tesco Extra locations.

The BagNut has landed in Sheffield

by

Remember when I posted about my mate Dave at Make No Bones turning my dream into a menu item?

Quick recap:

I had a dream about a bagel filled with vegan bacon and cheese that was battered and deep fried. In my dream I named it the BagNut because it was a cross between a bagel and a donut.

Fast forward to right now and we are two days out from the BagNut being added to the weekend menu at Make No Bones in Sheffield.

Take a look at them below.

There is a savoury and a sweet NutBag launching this Saturday (September 22, 2018).

The savoury features bacon, cheese, tomato, and pickle in a dill batter while the sweet version has hazelnut chocolate in vanilla batter, served with crushed ginger biscuits, warm ganache, and sprinkles.

This is FGV dream invented food. You need it in your life!

New vegan pie cafe in Sheffield

by

I like to think I know everything about everything vegan, but one person has me well and truly licked.

Jez (who works at The Incredible Nutshell vegan grocery store) is always ahead of the game when it comes to what’s up with vegan Sheffield.

This latest piece of news from the ‘Jez Express’ is extremely welcome:

The Burger Garden has been taken over by the owners The Plant & Steel City Cakes. They opened 3.14 The Vegan Pi Company on Friday just gone. I’ve supplied pictures of the ‘chicken’ & stuffing pie I had as well as the shop front. (see below)

In other Jez-sourced news:

There’s a vegan bookshop & cafe opening further down Abbeydale Rd from 3.14 Pi soon called Red Haus and a completely vegan gluten-free bakery opening the end of October called Pearl Bakery.

It’s all happening in Sheffield, people!

Say hello to the BagNut

by

It came to me in a dream.

There haven’t been many times in my life when I’ve watched a dream come true before my very eyes. Actually, this might be the first legitimate dream of mine that has been turned into reality.

It all started when I had a dream about a bagel filled with vegan bacon and cheese that had been battered and deep fried. It was such a vivid dream that I was instantly obsessed with the idea.

Fast forward to a few days ago and I was talking to my mate Dave of superstar vegan eatery Make No Bones in Sheffield about the BagNut (yes, bagel + donut = BagNut) and he agreed to make it for me.

I was floored!

My dream originally featured the bagel being held together with string before being battered and fried, but Dave knows what he is doing and used wooden skewers to hold it all together.

So what you can see below is the world’s first ever BagNut. A lightly toasted bagel filled with seitan bacon, cheese sauce, and pickles before being battered and deep fried.

To make this situation even better, Dave and Make No Bones have agreed to add the BagNut to their menu sometime in the coming days.

If you are ever in Sheffield, you need to make time to grab a BagNut. It is a taste sensation. If you live in Sheffield, I pray you have willpower or else this might become tea a few times a week.

Make No Bones is now located in new mega vegan venue Church: Temple of Fun which is also an amazing vegan bar and Drop Dead clothing boutique. I’ve also seen a new vegan tattoo studio being built inside the venue this week.

You can see the exact location of Make No Bones/Church online thanks to Google Maps.
