Vegan Indian restaurant in Mexico City

I’ve long been singing the praises of the vegan food scene in Mexico City and it certainly isn’t slowing down.

Vegan bakeries, restaurants, cafés, and events are popping up all over the Mexican capital.

One of the newest additions is Naan Mexico, a vegan Indian restaurant located in the Santa María la Ribera neighbourhood.

Located on the side of Parque Santa María la Rivera – San Cosme (a small park and square just a one minute walk from San Cosme Metro station), the restaurant is a casual space with bright paint and a pleasant view of the square.

The menu is relatively small for an Indian restaurant, but the food is affordable and tasty.

I enjoyed samosas with chutney, a glass of mango lassi, and a bowl of Kashmiri curry.

It is a great option for that part of the city which has been a little lacking in vegan restaurants.

You can see the exact location of Naan Mexico thanks to Google Maps.

Be sure to follow Naan Mexico on Instagram.

Cupcakes en la capital

Para los hispanohablantes hay una versión en español al final de esta página.

I traveled 11 hours by plane to the other side of the world and what did I discover? If you guessed delicious vegan cupcakes, give yourself a pat on the back!

Mexico City is not known internationally as a haven for vegans. Walking through any street market in the metropolis would lead you to believe the concept of plant-based fare is completely unknown. All sorts of dead animals are fried, boiled and seared before your very eyes and it is confronting and often gruesome.

But not all is lost. A new wave of vegan options is taking over Distrito Federal and I am extremely proud to say a dear friend of mine is part of the movement by making sure he offers cruelty-free treats as part of his new baking endeavour.
