I didn't realise vegetarianism was enough of a thing for Victorian London to have dedicated vegetarian restaurants, but apparently there was a surge of interest from the 1880s onwards.
Edward E Howe's The Vegetarian Cook Book (published in the USA in 1887, but referencing British writers) provides the following arguments for vegetarianism:
It's healthier; Howe is particularly concerned with people eating too much nitrogen, but he also highlights illnesses that people get from eating meat.
It stops you from wanting alcohol - the pro-vegetarian movement was closely linked with the temperance movement at this time.
It saves you money, in particular in making you not need to eat as much.
Eating meat is disgusting; he describes this as the aesthetic argument.
Some scripture opposes eating meat.
It's noticeable that ethical arguments about the rights and wrongs of killing animals for food don't appear.
Howe's "vegetarian" diet is actually a semi-vegan diet (the word "vegan" was only invented in the 1940s) since he prefers to avoid milk and eggs (except for children), though he seems to be OK with cheese. He also advocates for prioritising raw food, not eating food that's too hot, not eating anything too soft, not drinking ice water or eating ice cream, avoiding tea and coffee, and if that's not enough:
Condiments should be very sparingly used, for they tend to create undue thirst, and inflame the coats of the stomach and internal passages. Pure food requires no condiments, and will be relished if the taste for spicy foods is discouraged.
If that makes it sound as if the recipes in the book would be terrible... well, they are. There's a lot of boiling veg for hours on end - onions for 45 mins, green beans for 1-1.5 hours, and carrots for up to 2 hours.
Seasonings are not mentioned.
Here's a "macaroni" recipe:
Wash it and then break into lengths of 6 or 8 inches. To 2 oz. of macaroni add a teaspoonful of salt and a quart of boiling water. Simmer gently until tender, and the water quite evaporated, about half an hour. Then lay it in a dish and grate over it old cheese, after which set in an oven till of a brown color, about 20 mins.
Yes this is plain pasta with a bit of (old) cheese on top. Delicious.
Thankfully not all vegetarian cooking was like this in Victorian times. New Vegetarian Dishes by Mrs Bowdich comes to the rescue (published in London, in 1892).
In the preface, Earnest Bell, treasurer of the London Vegetarian Society, says "to have to live by some [vegetarian cook books] would almost make a vegetarian turn meat-eater". He notes that while some vegetarians "prefer a plain diet", most people don't. He also cites animal welfare as a possible reason for vegetarianism - that "in some cases, I hope, that [people] would willingly diminish the sufferings involved in the transport and slaughter of animals".
Mrs Bowdich's recipes live up to the promise of the preface, with things like this perfectly good veggie sausage recipe:
Tumblr media
Actual seasoning! There's even a whole section on vegetable curries. So maybe not all Victorian vegetarians ate as miserably as Edward Howe.

Day 13 - 18 September - Bar > Podgorica
We checked out and got a taxi to Bar station, and then took the train to Podgorica. We were staying in a flat that is very like our flat in London which was nice, it felt very familiar. We then went to lunch in the most highly rated place around, it was quite meat heavy and we ordered too much! We finished it all but it was tough and we had to go to the flat for a lie down after. We went for a quick walk around the old town but it seemed mostly residential so we went back to the downtown area. We have both been nursing colds and I went into a boots type shop for tissues. It was quite glam and had many different types of shampoo etc., including a whole shelf of Korean beauty products (we go a couple of face masks) but when I asked if they sold tissues there was a very definitive ‘no not here!’ I had had to take out the loo roll that was in my pocket that I had been using up to that point as a translation!
Tumblr media
At the flat we read for a bit I bought Her Side of the Story by Alba de Céspedes which seems like a real precursor to Elena Ferrante, I was hooked reading the sample on the train!
We then went to the post office and for a drink in this bar below a bridge (didn’t see any trolls since they seemed to have moved all their work online). We then went to one of the only restaurants in the old town for dinner, we only wanted something like but the salads we ordered were quite heavy. We went to the shop and bought some stuff for our long bus journey in the morning and went home.
We watched Mona Lisa smile on Netflix which was great, then went to bed, not the comfyist bed we have slept on and the pillow was very big and uncomfortable.
Where we ate - Pod valet, Lantern restaurant
What we liked - Pod valet was good but we had too much, Lantern was a lovely setting, I think our salads weren’t great but maybe we ordered wrong.
Day 14 - 19 September - Podgorica > Pristina
We work up early and went for a run which was really good particularly because we were about to spend all day on the bus. We packed, made our lunch and checked out. I bought a potato burek for breakfast and then got the 9am bus. This was the second international mini bus we have taken, and we both got single window seats on one side of the bus.
We got to the Albanian border quickly and got through pretty easily, no problems. The problems started like 25 mins later when the driver abruptly stopped and said that we needed to change bus. He didn’t really tell us when the new bus was coming, and spent most of the next 30 mins shouting on the phone. Eventually a big bus stopped and we all got on (including the driver, who started immediately being the assistant on this bus). The bus journey from then on was uneventful if a bit long, there was amazing scenery as usual and a stop at a very glam Albanian services.
We got to Pristina and walked into town from the bus. I think walking with the bag is the most weights training I have ever done! We checked into the flat and then went out for dinner. We had a lovely meal of salad, grilled veg, zucchini and cheese, and bread, which we needed after yesterday’s excess. With a big bottle of fizzy water it cost us 14 euro which was very good value! We are now just chilling in the flat and resting after a few days of travelling and moving.
Where we ate - Liburnia
What we liked - Liburnia was really nice but based on what you will find out in the next entry it is slightly taken the gloss off
Day 15 - 20 September - Pristina
Woke up to the terrible news that Nin was feeling really ill and couldn’t get out of bed. We had planned to do a 10am walking tour but that was missed. I went to get some medicine for heartburn from a chemist, which Nin said was absolutely disgusting (it was anise flavour).
She was feeling too ill o go out so I bravely ventured out without my rock. I got a burek from what seemed to be the highest rated place in Pristina, it was definitely not as nice as the place in Sarajevo but was pretty delish (i think its pretty hard to fuck burek up). I then went to an exhibition in a library that had multiple stories from the Kosovo war, all from a single day in May 1999. It was like some of the Sarajevo exhibitions, and no less grim and harrowing. It really is incredible the things that happened in Yugoslavia in the 90s, when you hear that there are tensions currently it is really easy to see why. What happened in Kosovo I would be able to remember had I been born there, and the scale of the violence is staggering. It takes serious courage to forgive in those situations. The poem ceasefire by Michael Longley (who i actually saw reading the poem a few weeks ago before I left) comes to mind.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
After that I had a mental coffee, with whipped cream (id ordered a cappuccino) and went back to see Nina who was still feeling really ill, I brought her some plain bread from a bakery and hung out for a bit and then went to get some lunch, I listened to a few podcasts and had some pasta and a coffee. I then went to a few of the main mosques in the town which I had wanted to go to (they were busy in the morning with Friday prayers, but empty when I went) and also to the a museum of an old Turkish 18th century house which was short but very lovely, and i walked through the old market. I then went to catch the 4pm walking tour but the guy never appeared so I bought some stuff for Nina to have for dinner (soup and rice as per her request) and went back to the house.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Our washer/dryer had made our clothes very wrinkled so I did some very basic ironing, and made the soup and rice for Nina who by this point had diagnosed herself with food poisoning. After that I went out to this falafel place and had a ‘zesty wrap’. I wanted to have some Kosovar wine and went to a wine bar, but i decided not to go in as it was empty and I didn’t feel like going in alone, so went home and we went to bed really early (Nina was already in bed).
This was the most time I had spent way from Nina since we have left, in some ways it was nice to have a bit of time to myself, but it mainly just illustrated how much I like spending time with Nin and I was sad she was ill. It is a good thing that it happened in one of the places where there wasn’t loads to do. (She’s better now).
Where I ate - Furra Lumi, Bon Bouquet cafe and lounge, Baba Ganoush Meze
What I liked - Baba Ganoush was delish, the others were good too but the highlight was defo dinner

Summer 2024: Three Trips
Our Summer 2024 was pretty much marked by three big trips we took, and all other activities and goings-on were organized around them. Two days after school let out, our family boarded a transatlantic flight for the SECOND time in a year - destination: London! I’d been dreaming of a London vacay for a few years at this point, since our homeschooling days - and we finally made it happen this year.
Tumblr media
We hit all the major historical sites and tourist attractions: Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, the London Eye, Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London, various museums, Windsor Castle, and more. But more than the sites - we really enjoyed big-city life, taking the tube everywhere, walking (notably, we logged 11 miles one day!), and EATING AMAZING FOOD from all kinds of international cuisines. We did NOT want to come home.
Once we were home from our week across the pond, we had a ten-day period of true summer vacation, where the kids had no structured activities, and we got to veg out at home, run random errands, and be in a less-hurried mode than usual. In and around this time, some miscellaneous things happened. We got into a family routine of watching nightly episodes of the anime show, “Naruto.” Vev got braces on his teeth. We took Ajima and Thatha out for an anniversary lunch at their favorite South Indian restaurant. And I did a quick getaway to the North Georgia mountains with three girlfriends for a winery/spa weekend, which was relaxing. There were other random things too.
Tumblr media
Soon enough, it was the week of July 4th, and time for trip #2: Washington DC, to see my sister Rithers and her family. This time, Ajima and Thatha joined us in our travels. Family reunion! Cousin time!
Tumblr media
Luna the Dog is always a big part of our visits to Rithers’ house. She’s a big personality, and we accept her for who she is. And who she is, is very barky 😂 but we love her for it.
Anyway! Upon return from this five-day jaunt, the kids immediately started up with four weeks of summer camp. This year, they both did Art Camp, and then Dey tried Robotics again, while Vev returned to Video Production. They had a good time.
Camp ended, and it was time for our last hurrah: trip #3, a few days in Destin, FL with a group of our college friends and their children. We rented a giant Airbnb house right on the beach with a pool, hot tub, game room, and space for everyone to sleep in a bed. It was a noisy, laughter-filled, sunny blast.
Tumblr media
We returned from Destin and had a turnaround of about three days, till school started! I honestly believe that more than ever before, we squeezed every last drop out of our summer break this year.

Brasserie Lebanese Restaurant
We were supposed to have Turkish for dinner, but apparently the shop was closed for decoration/renovation, so after hunting about, we chanced upon a Lebanese restaurant just up across the street, so we decided to try our luck there at Brasserie
Tumblr media
Location: Within Stanmore, just a few blocks away from our apartment
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Setting: A nice Lebanese feel to it, with a verandah outside to smoke bong, though they kinda have this annoying song playing in a loop
Tumblr media
Their bottled water, or stilled water as they call it in London
Tumblr media
Some kind of meat snack wrapped in edible leaves
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lebanese bread with the humus to go with it
Tumblr media
Lebanese currypuffs, apparently
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Chicken chunks with Lebanese bread and salad
Tumblr media
Beef chop or lamb chop, I think? I can't remember
Tumblr media
Lamb cutlets
Tumblr media
Chicken wings with rice and salad
Tumblr media
Ocra stew with rice
Tumblr media
Another kind of veggie stew with rice, though I can't recall what veggies is it
Tumblr media
Fries for the kids
Tumblr media
One of the many Lebanese desserts, which is almost like a flaky spring roll, but sweet
It was a very filling meal, though my ocra stew could use a little bit of crunch into it. It's made into stew so much that went I bite into the ocra (which is one of my fav vegs btw), it just went splat in my mouth and the slight gooey crunch to it was not there. But still, it's a nice taste to it. Never thought that ocra could be made into stew.
The only off-putting part would be the song that they played in a constant loop somehow, but it was no big. The atmosphere was pretty relaxing, and you just feel like you wanna lay back and relax, and watching the people smoking their bong at the verandah outside the dining area was also an interesting experience

Generation Hope - Veg Scraps Print Notebook Workshop
Generation Hope: Act for the Planet was a week-long festival at the Natural History Museum in March 2023. A series of programming partnering with young people to take meaningful action for the planet. I was invited by Food Wave (an international community of young people who want to create awareness of sustainable approaches to consuming and producing food in our cities) to do a workshop. I did two free drop-in workshops, where I collected donated veg scraps from an East London restaurant and the participants would print these shapes and textures on card food packaging (that I had also collected from a local community) and we would then stitch it into a mini notebook that the participants could take home with them. I wanted the participants to have a souvenir they made that would inspire them to recreate at home and to rethink how they could use food scraps and food packaging creatively, so I made sure to use tools and materials that most homes would have at home. The used veg scraps were collected at the end of each workshop which I would take home and compost in my garden. Thank you to What The Fork, Food Wave and Natural History Museum for this opportunity to do workshops in an amazing space and environment. March 2023

Today is shopping day! Yes I know we have done quite a bit of shopping already, but this is “official” shopping day!! We start off with our usual breakfast. I eat extra because usually on shopping day, lunch is “optional”. LOL. We start our day by walking down Brompton Road to Harrods. Yeah we could take the tube, but it’s not a bad walk and you never know what you’ll come across along the way as the shops have even changed since Sherri and I were here last year. we ogle at the pastry’s in some of the shop windows and try to stay warm as it is a cool morning but Sherri put hand warmers in our jacket pockets so that helped. We are a little early and the store has not opened yet, so we find a patch of sun and wait across the street until 10:00. Once the doors are opened, we head in. We browse around the food hall, looking at all the hand made chocolates, salads, sushi and an array of food, more food than you can possibly imagine. Fresh veg, meats and if I was a wealthy person, this would be your dream food hall! But, this is Harrods, so let’s get real LOL. After looking at a lot of things we cannot afford, we head to the Harrods shop. This is the area of the store where all of the “Harrods” products are. I am torn as to whether to buy all of the things I want here, or wait and get them at the airport tax free. I pick up a Christmas ornament which is a phone box and a little credit card wallet as I have a cheap one and use it a lot as I have gotten to where I don’t like to carry my purse everywhere. I found a beautiful silk scarf that had coronation things on it, but £85.00 is just too much for a scarf! I decide not to buy a mug here as I know that they have a good selection at the airport. After leaving Harrods, we head back to the hotel to drop off our things and then we head over to Fortum and Mason as we are scheduled to have Afternoon Tea here at 1:00. We get on the tube and head over to Green Park to head to Regent Street. We are a little early, so we walk down to Hatchard’s, our favorite book store and the oldest book store in the UK. I always buy a book that is published by the Royal , but the only one they have is on Prince Phillip, which I would love to have, but there is only one copy and the dust jacket is rather beat up. So I opt for a book on King Charles. We head over to Fortum and Mason googling over the window dressings as they are all so cool and related to the coronation. We browse around a little in the tea department as we still have a view minutes before our reservation. Then we get on the lift and head up to the 5th floor to the restaurant. There are a lot of people having tea here today but we are seated directly to our table. When you have tea here, you only need to choose the type of tea you want as everything else is brought for everyone, sandwiches, scones and desserts. The sandwiches are beef with a slaw, smoked salmon, eggs and mayo and of course cucumber. This is really something anyone who visits the UK must do as Afternoon Tea is just so quintessentially British!! After we have tea, we head down a few floors and browse the china department which had some beautiful (and expensive) teapots, luxury picnic hampers and a number of other kitchen items. We left Fortum and Mason and went next door to a Cath Kidston store that is going out of business. As much as I am dying to spend some money, I find nothing. We decide to walk over to Piccadilly Circus as it’s just not a visit to London without doing that. We get there and take a bunch of pictures and go to the Hard Rock store to see if there is anything we can’t live without. Sherri and Cindy bought some shirts, but I decided against it since I have so many in my drawer that I can’t fit in right now. We leave this area of the city and head back to the hotel. We decide to just rest for a little while and get our luggage sorted for the next day. As I am getting things together, Sherri is looking at her phone and receives an email from British Airways, our flight has been cancelled!!

Caribbean cruise day 4
Up with the larks for a morning run - I went North along the fairly busy road but it had a pavement for most of the way. Ran into some goats/sheep that were causing traffic chaos not a problem we have in central London...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Omelette and waffles for breakfast
Tumblr media
Chilling by the beach is the order of the day.
I stroll along the beach and look at the fancy villas - there's one in the style of a Roman temple that's quite swish.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A quick trip to the gym and then I wanted a swim but couldn't find my goggles - after asking everyone in the hotel I find them in my suitcase but by then it was time for the garden tour.
We wandered around the gardens for an hour with the excellent head gardener - he showed us the wonderful range of plants and shrubs - favourites included the black pearl plant, ducks feet plant, variegated ginger plant, Chinaman's hat, cats tail, fox tail palm and frangipani trees.
Then I got my swim in and went back to the room to shower(leaving Laura in the bar). I leave the room and it's a gorgeous sunset that then turns into a heavy rain shower - I sprint to an umbrella on the beach but get soaked! I shelter with the beach guys and two other guests whilst waiting for it to ease off.
Then some predinner drinks - a slightly disappointing daiquiri (I wanted a hemmingway one but no maraschino!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Dinner in the restaurant - I have the red snapper with purple potatoes and nice veg and Laura had the lobster summer roll. There's a great vocalist singing whilst we eat - we join in with our favourites including a great Macy Gray.
Back to our room to finish up the champagne and beer I'd bought from the supermarket.

15 Best Restaurants That Have Vegan Options (in the world)
Tumblr media
Veganism is a lifestyle choice that eliminates animal products from one’s diet and lifestyle. This includes all animal-derived foods such as eggs, dairy, honey, and gelatin, as well as clothing and personal care products that are made from animal products or tested on animals.
People often choose vegan restaurants for ethical and environmental reasons. Eating vegan reduces the demand for animal products, which in turn reduces the number of animals raised and slaughtered for food. Additionally, veganism is an environmentally friendly choice as plant-based diets require fewer resources to produce than animal-based diets.
Eating at vegan restaurants can also be beneficial for your health. Eating plant-based meals regularly can help you get the nutrients you need without the cholesterol and saturated fat found in animal products. Additionally, vegan meals tend to be lower in calories than animal-based meals, making them a great choice for those looking to lose weight.
Some of the most popular vegan restaurants around the world include By Chloe in New York City, Veggie Grill in Los Angeles, and Mana Food Bar in Chicago.
Additionally, in Europe, popular vegan restaurants include Cloud Cakes in London and Green Rabbit in Paris.

Businesses have picked up on this trend and the potential it holds, and we are all for it! A survey from Cornell University reports that one out of every 10 Americans do not consume meat. However, vegan restaurants are not only for vegans and vegetarians. For all the food-lovers and globetrotters, we’ve compiled a list of the top vegan eateries around the globe. The quality of their dishes is remarkable, even surpassing that of Foie Gras and caviar.
The restaurant KLE traces its roots back to the German Sauerklee, a plant with a long history. Local ingredients are used to make mouth-watering dishes, and the Spanish-born chef Zineb Hattab adds her own twist by combining Moroccan and Mexican flavours.
KLE is not only a one Michelin Star restaurant, but has also been awarded the prestigious Michelin Green Star for their commitment to sustainability and eco-friendly practices, such as not serving animal products and using organic produce.
Everyone can enjoy the amazing quality and flavour of their vegan-friendly dishes, complemented by a 100% vegan wine list. In a relaxed and intimate atmosphere, visitors can savour dishes such as Panna pistachio ravioli and violet and orange blossom meringue for dessert.
Joia has been at the forefront of plant-based dining since its inception in 1989, with 80% of its menu now being vegan. In 1996, it was the first vegetarian European restaurant to be honoured with a Michelin Star and recently won a Michelin Green Star.
Chef Pietro Leemann creates dishes through a careful process of experimentation and exploration, while opting to leave out all meat and restrict animal products such as dairy and eggs to a maximum of 20% of his recipes.
The restaurant also puts a strong emphasis on eco-friendliness and sustainability, with customer health being a priority. Joia avoids using heavily processed items, such as gluten and sugar, in its dishes.
It’s no surprise that Vegan Beat is so highly-rated by both locals and travelers! With a Tripadvisor Travelers Choice Award for 2022 and top ratings from Happy Cow and Google, this vegan street food restaurant offers a unique fusion of Mediterranean and cross-cultural cuisine.
Their signature side dish – spiralized potatoes with beet sauce – is the talk of the town, and the menu also features mouthwatering options like sweet potato burgers and mushroom gyros.
Prices are reasonable and the atmosphere is casual, so vegans and meat-eaters alike come back to Vegan Beat again and again!
Reading reviews of vegan restaurants is a great way to get an idea of what to expect before you visit. You can read reviews on sites such as Yelp and Google, or you can read reviews on vegan restaurant review sites such as HappyCow. Additionally, you can ask your friends and family for their opinion on vegan restaurants they have visited.
If you’re looking for resources to help you learn how to cook vegan-friendly food, there are plenty of options. You can find vegan cookbooks, vegan cooking classes, and vegan cooking websites that offer recipes, tips, and advice.
