All you can eat VEGAN food ... for £6.50 ?!?!

Whoever said being vegan is too expensive is wrong.

To celebrate the end of my degree at university, I went to a restaurant in Angel, Islington called Indian Veg. (92-93 Chapel Market, Angel Islington, London N1 9EX)


Just one part of the many incredible dishes the restaurant has to offer.

It's quaint and simple, with an array of different food choices, all as tasty and fragrant as each other. When I went, on a Thursday evening, it was packed with people, laughing and chatting as they emptied the buffet.

One of the best parts? YOU CAN BRING YOUR OWN ALCOHOL. So as I sat there, enjoying a whirlpool of spices tickling my palette, I washed it down with my own Prosecco. (they provide glasses too).

The food tastes so good, it's hard to believe that it only costs £6.50 for unlimited amounts.



You can also fill a takeaway box if you don't fancy dining in.

They also give free food to the homeless; not only is there a sign claiming so, but I also saw the waiters giving them a takeaway box and ushering them in to fill it. This kindness mirrored the whole notion of the place: extending a love of peace through food.

One of the many info graphics laid out on the walls of the restaurant.
 One of my favourite parts was the information across the walls. This included newspaper articles, scientific studies, fact sheets and photos, all concluding that the vegetarian/vegan life is the healthiest. This information combined with the delicious food is a tempting lure into the veggie lifestyle!



I spoke to the waiters who were both Indian, and asked them about the heart behind the restaurant. They told me that the owner was away currently, but that I must come back and meet him. He wants to transcend love and encourage the vegetarian lifestyle.

I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who thinks vegan food can't taste amazing. Especially if you're an Indian fan. Delicious!
