At the beginning of this month 1st October 2018, The Flaming Grill pub chain released the vegan challenge burger, this challenge is running all through October and November. We thought it would be great to go along and give it a go!

There is three spicy burgers in a bun mixed with some sauce and cheese slices, you also get a side of chips and barbeque sauce with the burger, although they were very tasty it is very spicy so you have to be a great lover of spicy food to take this on.

Alongside this they also have a great vegan menu with some fabulous dishes on there such as fish and chips so if you are not feeling up for the challenge and want something smaller there are other options, It is great that there is now a whole menu which is specifically vegan rather than just one option or having to choose a side dish, so thankyou to the flaming grill chain for creating this.

Let us know if you give the challenge a go and how you get on… Best of luck!

Duke Of Wellington Newcastle upon Tyne

A great new place to eat vegan near Newcastle upon Tyne is the Duke Of Wellington Pub. Only 5 minutes from the city center this pub has a good selection of vegan starters, mains and desserts. We ordered fish and chips (one of the best we have had) and chocolate cake.

The Little Vegan Market Middlesbrough

The Little Vegan Market

While on our first leg of promotion / marketing for our upcoming fifth installment of Newcastle Vegan Festival, I stumbled across a vegan stall within the Dundas Market in Middlesbrough. The Little Vegan Market had a good selection vegan foods and products, but to my surprise I found it at only been open several days, it only opened on Tuesday 5th June 2018 in fact (4 days before my visit). I talked to the owners and they, as I was taken aback by how much interest in veganism there was in the area, while taking some photographs around 10am the well stocked store was packed with what seemed to be very informed and passionate vegans, I waited for 10-15 mins for the customers to leave so I could take a photo of the stall without anyone there, but more and more people seemed to be arriving, so I gave in and took the photo as I needed to be elsewhere.

This is another example of how veganism in the UK, is exploding and the growth of vegan business in the north east is booming. Lets hope we see more and more of this type of thing in the future..

REMEMBER : Every penny we spend is a vote, so vote for a more healthier, ethical and environmentally sustainable future, vote vegan….
