Wagamama Leicester Vegan Chilli ‘Squid’ Reviews

Are you squidding me?!

🦑 🌱 A lovely addition to the Wagamama vegan menu. Great to see so many restaurants getting creative with their vegan food, especially with this dish which was made out of pulled king oyster mushrooms! 🍄 I had flashbacks to eating calamari in my pre-vegan days but this was @abillion times better as it was without a ‘fishy’ smell or taste and there was no harm...

The batter was really nice, very crispy and seasoned nicely.
