Trip to Cardiff

We decided to take a short trip to Cardiff for a couple of reasons, one to check out what's on offer there for vegans and also to see a concert at St Davids Hall.
We arrived to really nice weather, which was nice to see. Locating our hostel was really easy as it was centrally located on the high street in Cardiff City Centre.  Was a lovely hostel and very welcoming and very homely.

We decided to take a walk to Anna-Loka which is a 30 minute walk from the city centre.



Anna-Loka is 100% vegan café, their menu was full of so much yummy choice but we opted for all day breakfast to start with and a side order of chips.



This was followed by a apple and beetroot cake and a mango and coconut cake.



 My fiance had a black forest hot chocolate too. We left feeling really full.





On our second day in Cardiff we decided to get the local bus to Penarth (the local buses do an all day ticket for £3.50 to travel all over the Cardiff area, which is really good value for money).
We took a walk down to the sea front through a beautiful park.





The sea front was amazing and nice to see after spending so much time traveling and being in the city. Was a lovely feeling to blow the cobwebs away.




We came across a local Health food shop and managed to pick up some yummy vegan goodies which we havent been able to get hold of locally.









On our return to Cardiff we found Simply V



which is a vegan shop who sell some amazing products from some well known pre packaged items to some really yummy looking homemade goodies, we brought home made sos roll and jaffa cake to eat on the return journey home. Well worth a visit if ever in Cardiff at all. Can't wait to return again soon for more adventures.

Thankyou for reading VB80

The Vegan Hippo

What an amazing place to visit. Not only is the food amazing but they are completely Vegan. On our recent visit we tried their new Sticks of Joy which was Jackfruit with mushrooms, pepper, aubergine, and onion with a side helping of relish. It was so yummy and had a small hint of spice, i could have eaten alot more of these. Nomnomnom. We then had spicy courgette burger. It was very nice with plenty of spice, wasn't really my thing as I'm not a courgette lover but it was still good. The Jackfruit burger was yummy and really filling but really messy as it didn't want to stay in the burger bun at all.....i would highly recommend giving this a go though, just make sure you have plenty of napkins. The bean burger with onion and garlic sauce was amazingly yummy and would defo recommend it to anyone. It tasted as good as it looks. For pudding we opted for a vanilla slice. I haven'...

Summer Festivals of 2017

For Me the summer isn't complete without a festival or two. Here's what we got up to in 2017 and all the amazing vegan places we found to eat. The first festival of the year and one of my favorites is Glastonbury which was at the end of June. Unlike 2016 with all the mud, Glasto' 2017 was a heatwave. It was so nice to be able to get around without getting stuck and worn out. There is so much to see and do at Glastonbury from bands, poets, acrobats and there is even a kids field filled with lots for them to do. There are also a lot of food stalls around with some offering vegan options, but there are some completely vegan caterers which made life so much easier. These include: Veggies of Nottingham Vegan Pyramid Club Mexicana Happi Maki The Fritter Shack (vegan options) Labonne Crepe (vegan options) No Bones Jones (vegan Options) Pan De Mania Wood Fired Pizza (vegan options) Gandhi's Flip-Flop (vegan Options) Goodness Gracious (vegan opti...
