Disappointed. I was so excited to try this not-made-from-coconut-oil #vegan cheese and although it didn't have that awful vegan cheese smell, it didn't deliver in taste, flavour or texture. I guess the ingredients list should more

Delicious! And I don't often say that about a toasted sandwich. It was so generously filled with sundried tomato pesto, vegan cream cheese (nut-based), tomato, baby leaf spinach and avocado - I loved it.

The great thing about travelling is visiting vegan spots that you ordinarily wouldn't get a chance to go to. I stopped over here twice - on my way in and out of Port Elizabeth - because it was that good.

I don't usually more

Another great curry paste from Taste The Paste, packed with flavour. I love that all the ingredients are listed and that it doesn't have any preservatives (I keep it in the freezer for a longer shelf-life).

A mighty fine dish bursting with flavour and nutrition dense - the perfect hot-Summer-day meal. And yes, I would absolutely have it again. All AITK plant-based meals are reasonably priced at around R90, and are freshly prepared more

AITK has perfected the art of the tofu - bursting with flavour. The fresh ingredients and the small portion of couscous rounded up this bowl rather nicely. The only thing missing was a nice sauce or dressing - it was a tad more

I am still trying to get the hang of vegan cheese but hands down, this is the best one I have tasted so far. It's so tasty and the black pepper adds a real nice kick (so if you aren't a fan of a lot of black pepper then more

Yay! I love this little doughnut filled with strawberry jam. Would I change a thing? No. Would I have it again? Of course.

What gorgeous flavours! The green curry sauce packed a punch of flavour with a hint of chilli, and the tofu had a lovely coating on the outside - another firm favourite of mine. Served with jasmine rice, also perfectly cooked.
