I'm really enjoying the back story. I have you two to thank for upping our expectations of veggie food. From the first time we dare venture into VB York, it was, ooooh what is this place, what are these bizarre combinations, but WOW it was fabulous 👌 Look forward to more.

I am one of those pesky vegetarians - who emerged from a northern 1970s childhood where vegetarian was not a concept. I lived through the mushroom risotto, butternut squash, vegetable balti years (which are still happening in some locations…) and stumbling across Vanilla Black was a door opening. Great to read how you and the fabulous Donna started off (you’re Ok, she’s the genius of course).

You know what they say. If nobody else is doing that thing you think would be cool, do it yourself!
