Gothenburg is situated on the west coast and is Sweden’s second biggest city. It is full of vegan and vegetarian restaurants ranging from brunch and fika (coffee and cake) to plant based gastronomy places. One of my favourite vegan restaurants…

Restaurant Review: Paradise Food In Budva, Montenegro

I was a little concerned as to how easy it would be to follow a vegan diet on holiday in Montenergo, after hearing from those who had been that it wasn’t particularly vegan friendly. I anticipated living off bread (unbuttered) and potatoes for the week. I was however pleasantly surprised with being able to order tomato based pasta dishes, vegetable stew, roasted veggies, pizza with vegan cheese and dairy free…

The Field Shelter B&B – A Cozy Modern Vegan Guesthouse In Perthshire

Almost exactly a year ago I hung up my backpack and moved to Scotland with dreams of opening a vegan business and micro sanctuary at the forefront of my mind. I’d never lived in Scotland before and the flat we rented was in Perth–a city that, at the time, had no 100% vegan or veggie places listed on HappyCow. They now have a lovely vegan spot called 269 Vegan Cafe…

Restaurant Highlight: Hakuna Matata Veggie, Madrid

Located in the center of Madrid, Hakunana Matata has a chill vibe that you will sense as soon as you walk into the restaurant. They serve typical Mediterranean food combining Spanish, Moroccan and Italian dishes, among others. This makes the venue more varied, which is great if you go with a large group of people. The establishment is quite small and it often fills up on weekends, so I recommend…

If you can easily find most of your favourite food transformed into a yummy vegan meal, sushi often remains the craving that devoted vegans suffer from. Already conceived as a healthy option, the plant-based chefs seem to focus less on the Japanese delicacies than on the myriad ways to revisit the classics.
