SAF Vegan Restaurant

SAF Veggie Restaurant, South Kensington, London

A wonderful vegetarian restaurant spot for lunch.  This is a sister to SAF in Shoreditch London which I reviewed in an earlier post.  I have been to both several times and I am nothing but impressed.

This one is located in the Wholefoods Market upstairs in the cafe section.  SAF takes up a large area.  On Kensington High Stret, you will not miss the massive wholefoods market.

The food is absolutely stunning.  Lots of choices most are Vegan Raw and some vegan hot dishes.    Last time I went we had a chickpea pancake with a marinara sauce and a Red Pepper Vegan Cheese savoury wrap.  They tasted great.  The chickpea pancake was one of the best dishes I have had here.

They used to do expensive lunches, but now because of their location they are offering some more options like the wraps at a lower price.

The food is just lovely, very fresh and delightful.  The desserts are really good, last time I tried their raw vegan berry cheesecake,  yummy.   Everything is vegan, they do good wines, juices and hot drinks.  It is so healthy and tastes amazing.

Highly recommend this restaurant.

Vegan Single Cream

From Provamel this soya alternative to single cream is very good.  The taste is delicate and it is perfect for pouring on your desserts,  I like it on vegan Cakes. It is creamy and smooth.  It is also great for cooking with,  I use it to add a nice texture to garlic mushrooms, giving a creamy texture to the sauce. Great in soups and sauces.  It is versatile as an ingredient.

Sold in health food shops.  253gram pack.  Each 100ml is 190kcal.  81p per pack.  Keeps in the fridge.  Sold in health foods shops and some supermarkets.

Blueberry Bear Yo Yo’s

Sweet natural treats from Bear.  These fruity spirals are tasty and a little odd looking.  Inside are two fruit yo yo’s,  you can unwind them and eat the slowly or bite into them.  I think the children would like these as they are fun.  The flavour is slightly tart with a good blueberry taste.  Great guilt free snack as one yo yo counts for one of your five a day.  Good for lunch boxes.  Simple vegan dessert.

Dairy Free, it only contains, apples, pears, sweet potato, black carrot extract and natural blueberry flavour.  Sold in health food shops,  I got mine from Holland & Barrett.  Per yo yo is 27kcal  2 per pack.  I like the packaging it is fun.
