'Vegan London' by Serena Lee is just in time for Veganuary. Whats that you ask?
Going Vegan for the whole first month of the year.
There are photographs of some of the dishes as well as of the place which shows you a bit of the vibe. It is surprising that they didnt all start vegan. Some turned vegan. Some are more sustainability focused. Some have tried for years to make their vegan recipes work, Some welcome your furry friends. Some have 'wingz' contest (Biff's Jack Shack). Look out for March. One settled in a double-decker bus. Never thought of it as a cafe place.
The maps at the end show you where these cafes are. If you wish, flip to those pages first, read of them by proximity, which might be the order you will visit them in. One doesnt have a fixed menu, which means multiple visits to sample it all.
You will see a trend of jackfruit as a substitute for pulled pork. I dound it intresting that PETA hands out prizes for the best vegan food. I have been to mock meat places and temples of Tempeh and Seitan (picked the nomer from the book) but never heard of vegan prawns and tofish tacos.
Junk food is when something has arrived. Vegan surely has with Vegan junk food.
Look forward to the Britain Dhal Fesival.

With only the vegan in mind, the author painstakingly created an all-inclusive encyclopedia for the locals or visitors to the bristling streets of London. Easy to spot, colorful pictures identify each restaurant from the outside as well as some of the savory dishes offered - nice touch. On a more important note, distinctions are clearly made between vegan-friendly and 100% vegan establishments. With a map and handy index at the end, it's the complete package. Anyone with an appetite in search of healthy food alternatives will find this invaluable reference material a must-have.

I extend my thanks to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group - White Lion Publishing for this digital edition in exchange for an unbiased review.

What a great resource for locals and travelers alike! Locals will love this book for finding great new places to try that are 100% vegan or vegan-friendly (each entry is noted which it falls under) restaurants, cafes and more. Travelers will save copious amounts of time and frustration in not having to hunt down vegan-friendly places to eat while enjoying the sights around London. Establishments are grouped together so the reader can quickly find a quick bite, global cuisine, a great place for a date night, healthier fare, sweets or a nice cafe. I'll definitely recommend this to anyone living in or around London or planning to travel to the area. Traveling as a vegan is getting easier and easier through the ever-growing options and compilations such as this one that help the diner find those options.

Thank you to Quarto Publishing Group - White Lion Publishing and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for my honest review.

An interesting and detailed guide to vegan eating in London.
I'm not vegan but as I'm on a strict diet I was interested in in to read it.
It's full of addresses and lovely pictures, a very good guide.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to Quarto Publishing and Netgalley for this ARC

Gorgeous book a stroll through places to eat Vegan food in London.All types of food from bites to meals..Those living in London planning on visiting or just looking through this book from your chair and dreaming of eating in these lovely places. #netgalley #VeganLondon #Quartrobooks.

A beautifully presented wander through some of the best places one can eat or buy vegan food in London.
The photos are just scrumptious, more of a restaurant guide and a coffee table book, it still is worth a good read even if you do not live in London. There is information on each venue with tidbits of information of the various meals served - which can be used as a base for ideas for the home cook, who would like to experiment.

Vegan London
A guide to the capital's best cafes, restaurants and food stores
by Serena Lee

What a delight this book must have been to create! Why? Getting to travel to so many locations in and around London while sampling meals from a variety of vegan restaurants would be a dream for me...bet it was for the author, too.

The book is divided into: Quick Bites, Going Global, Date Night, Plant Power, Sweet Treats and Cafe Culture. Each section has ten or more restaurants listed with photos and comments about the type of food they create and offer to customers.

I can see this as a great book for any vegan living in or going to visit London. I can also see it as a book hotels might want to have available for their concierges in case guests ask for a recommendation of where to dine in London if vegan. I also have to make the comment that I am even now trying to figure out how to recreate some of the meals pictured in the book to eat at home ;)
