“The starter involved opening a jar, anyone with a little upper body strength can do that.” Very good. And lemon curd and croissants is a fine, fine thing.

The only things I missed from your restaurant were:

Aubergine

Tofu

Lasagna

Risotto

Lentils (of all sorts)

Stuffed things (of all sorts)

Vegan cheese and tofu eggs

Quinoa, quorn, quark and other things that start with Q

I was so disappointed 🤣

The colour schemes! The randomness! The worthiness! I was having flashbacks (and some parts of this barren world are still sparsely populated by versions of this if we are lucky ..).

Yep we have a local veggie restaurant like this!

We had a lovely little place here in Worthing called *Wine and Reason* where they paired decent wines with vegan tapas. Sadly couldn't last. Vegetarian might have given wider clientele. But yeah, we need more grown up experiences with proper food. Brighton's famous Food For Friends can be a bit pricey/precious. https://www.foodforfriends.com/.

You should have tried turning veggie in the late 1980s. I survived the PRE Beanbag years.
