I’d never lived in Scotland before and the flat we rented was in Perth–a city that, at the time, had no 100% vegan or veggie places listed on HappyCow.

They serve typical Mediterranean food combining Spanish, Moroccan and Italian dishes, among others. This makes the venue more varied, which is great if you go with a large group of people. The establishment is quite small and it often fills up on weekends, so I recommend…

If you can easily find most of your favourite food transformed into a yummy vegan meal, sushi often remains the craving that devoted vegans suffer from. Already conceived as a healthy option, the plant-based chefs seem to focus less on the Japanese delicacies than on the myriad ways to revisit the classics. Burgers, wraps, pizzas are the main attractions of the plant-based culinary scene. Regretfully, vegan restaurants tend to neglect…
