Recommendations: Tokyo // Japan
The mega city with with mega secret vegan scene. Full of creative bakeries, macrobiotic feasts and interesting produce. Tokyo can be a challenging place to consciously travel within, with it’s sky scrapers, chaos and unavoidable plastic. Luckily our founder, Lauren Lovatt, spent many months in the Japanese capital lifting the lid on how to experience Tokyo in a more sustainable way.
Travel with us
We’re excited to be planning something new! An opportunity for us all to travel together to foodie destinations to learn, explore and get inspired!
'Plant Academy Escapes' are coming life as culinary retreats in far flung corners of the world with the idea to reconnect with community, re-wild our recipes and re-imagine the plant based food landscape inspired by colourful cultures.
Recommendations: Mexico City//Mexico
Mexico City is a place of dreams for us foodie folk. The land of tapache and tamales, where you discover a new plant with every bite because the booming food scene boldly merges creativity and deep culture in the most vibrant and playful way. If we could spend our lives eating our way around every corner of Mexico City we would.
Recommendations: Lima // Peru
Lima has been increasingly known as a top gastronomic spot for several years, with people coming to visit, simply to eat! Whether you're on layover for a few days before heading to Cusco, or you have truly come just to enjoy Lima's culinary delights, it will not disappoint.
Recommendations: Ubud // Bali
Ubud has to be the ultimate plant-based Mecca. It's where homemade almond milk is the norm, raw chocolate rules and cheese is vegan by default. You can eat extremely well off fully vegan menus all around the town and what is most impressive about Ubud is that the cafes and restaurants have extensive menus but *actuallv* execute each dish well.
Recommendations: Mallorca // Spain
Mallorca is one of our favourite islands in Europe because of their conscious credentials and plant-forward thinking. With a huge array of plant-based restaurants, there's local natural wines on every menu and thinking sustainably comes easily to this magical place® From the creative hub of "Santa Catalina' in palma to every edge of the island, these were some of our recent finds while visiting.
