Vegan Cafe: V Revolution Manchester



V Revolution


Today I was in Manchester and I had heard many great things about V Revolution on the vegan grapevine. I had to go and when I got there I was in heaven. The cafe is decorated like a cute diner. It had a little shop bit and a record shop (didnt see that bit). Overall really good vibes.




Random man in the picture..oops :/





The Foods:



A really yummy hot chocolate


The Menu..as you can see there is an awesome amount of choice and its soo cheap!



I went for a BBQ burger. I cant even explain how damn good this was!







Shopping

While I was in there I bought a few bits. Some new cheese to try, marshmallows, chocolate and some jerky.





Overall I was soooo impressed with the food, the staff, the price, the vibes, the shop. I wish I lived closer. All I can tell you is GO! I will be going again for sure!!

Much Love

What did I eat today?- January 31st


January 31st

Its the last day of Veganuary!! I cant believe how quickly it has gone! I have really enjoyed blogging my food and sharing my vegan journey. I am now at the end of my 4th month of being vegan and I'm LOVING it. I would never go back to dairy now as there is a vegan answer to everything.
I hope you have enjoyed my blog and I thank you for all the support. Im now going to try and do a dish of the week and I will continue to blog veganism and my journey!

On to the FOOD

Breakfast:

I am disgusted with my breakfast. I had a doughnut and a rubicon.To be fair this was at 12....still..super unhealthy, but I was near a co-op and I wanted to try their doughnuts for myself..jam doughnuts..VEGAN...say WHAT







Lunch

As I was in Manchester I had to go to the infamous (amongst Vegans anyways) V revolution.
It was AMAZING!! I had a BBQ burger with 'bacon' ,'cheese', coleslaw, 'beef' and onions.
This is the best burger I've EVER had. Check out the full blog post.



Whilst in Manchester I also went to their massive Holland and Barrett and finally found some pudology to try. Reviews to come when I eat these bad boys!





I also went to Waitrose and found these coconut yogurts and this basil tofu! It wasn't cheap but I cant wait to try!!



Tea

For tea I was really excited to try these Vbites 'Fish' fillets. They were soooooo good. Really tasted awesome. Holland and Barrett...get them!




The most unhealthy day. On to the smooothies and salad tomorrow. Going to be really strange not blogging it!!!

Well done to everyone who has completed veganuary. You did it.

Much Love

After a lovely snow day I went to workies to resume normal life. Shocked that Veganuary ends tomorrow! This month has flown, but I have LOVED it.

Breakfast

Crumpets, herbal tea, biscuit butter






Lunch

Tofu Wrap leftovers


Tea

Tonight I went straight from work to Manchester to see Charlie Simpson (You know that guy who was in Busted...he's now solo) So i grabbed train snacks and then got food at the station. Train snacks were coke and Prawn cocktail crisps.



After a gruelling search for something vegan, I found a bagel place and I got loads of veg with some sweet chilli all warmed up. Was TASTY


Charlie Simpson was AMAZING




Happy Friday

January 27th

Time is flying, only 4 days of veganuary left :)...A life time of veganism for me. It marks nearly 4 months since I became vegan and it has literally become the norm for me!

Breakfast:

Toast! I failed to take pics! Useless!!

Lunch:

Leftovers again! Can't beat leftovers can you? Gnocchi!!



Random Snackage:

Fizzy fangs from sainsburys!..These are awesome and 3 packs for £1... a hit in the office!






Tea:

I'm having friends for tea tomorrow, so I prepped some stuffed peppers with risotto. So thats what I've had for tea. With veggie fingers and a salad. I have a lot of evening activities at the moment, so it requires lots of quick easy meals! Tonight I had meditation! Ace fun!





Hope you enjoyed!
Apologies if my posts are getting repetitive. Its the reality of an insanely busy woman!

Thanks for all the support!

Much Love
