• Great vegan find in Nice old town

Caju has been on my list of vegan places to try for a long time! This month I finally made it whilst on a weeks holiday in Nice. I was interested to try the vegan restaurant that seems most talked about in this area of France. Situated right in the heart of the picturesque Nice old town, it's simple to get too and definitely lives up to the reviews, exceptionally attentive and warm service, with a menu that changes seasonally. I had a lovely chat with the owners. We arrived for a lateish lunch around 2.30, which meant that only two of the three available burgers on the menu were available. However the two we tried were great! Other options for us would have been 'rawsome vegan life noodles' or little bo bun' We went for the burgers, and split burgers in to two so we. Like try both. We had the 'Beauty and the beets burger' as well as the 'Garden party' id happily eat either again. Each burger comes with a side of 'blue crisps' (as described on the menu) Basically light crisps with a natural colouring. This is a nice touch and reminded me of the burgers and crisps served at vegan Mexican places I'd tried. It's a much lighter option than a burger and French fries. The burger bun comes with with homemade vegan mayonnaise, it was so good I asked for more. If your gluten free there is gluten free bread available on request instead of the wheat bun. Apparently caju will soon be changing owners, possibly within the next month! However apparently it will still keep the same ethos and remain 100% vegan :)
