It might be hard to believe, but even just a few years ago the term Veganism was virtually unheard of on foodie and restaurant scenes, with many people unaware of what following a Vegan diet actually entailed and for Vegans themselves the struggle to find an exciting, flavourful option (or even any option at all) when eating out in restaurant was far too real. Fast forward a few years and more and more restaurants, coffee…
