London Vegan Restaurant Goes Backward

I noticed something today that left me feeling a little deflated.

Holy Carrot has opened a new location in Spitalfields Market, just a short walk from Liverpool Street station in central London. Some of you will remember that Holy Carrot first made waves with its Knightsbridge restaurant, a fully vegan dining destination that proudly showcased plant-based food in a refined and creative setting.

But the days of their menu being fully vegan appear to be over.

There is a shop on Hoxton Street in London that you really need to experience for yourself.

Hoxton Street Monster Supplies is a wonderfully strange and imaginative retail space dedicated to serving the needs of monsters. Shelves are filled with curious sweets (sometimes vegan), candles, trinkets, books, writing materials, and household items that look as though they belong in the cupboard of a friendly creature who lives under your bed.
