Veganuary is a global campaign designed to encourage people to experiment with a vegan lifestyle for the month of January. Veganuary gives people the opportunity to explore Vegan recipes and restaurants, often resulting in participants becoming a full-time Vegan following the experience!
If you’re partaking in Veganuary, you may be wondering where to start. Luckily, there are tons of restaurants offering delicious vegan meals that you can sink your teeth into. So, let us give you a hand with your Veganuary meal plan.
As if the delicious flavours weren’t enough to sell you on our recommendations, tastecard’s restaurant deals make these chain restaurants all the more enticing.
Banana Tree boasts an impressive selection of vegan options, whether you’re hungry for a curry, small plates, or even noodles. If it’s a tapas-style meal you’re in the mood for, we recommend going for their flavourful Edamame, Vegan Gyozas, and Vietnamese Spring Rolls.
But, if you’re fancying a curry, we suggest ordering their Tofu Banana Tree Curry, the restaurant’s signature dish. Inspired by the best that Bangkok and Bali have to offer, this meal serves up no shortage of flavour.
Get 25% off your total bill at Banana Tree from Sunday to Thursday with tastecard.
If you ask us, a visit to an Italian restaurant is always a good idea. When it comes to Veganuary deals, Zizzi and tastecard deliver the goods. Start off with a solid taste of Italian cuisine when you begin with their Aubergine Fritti or Cruschetta Classica dish.
As for your main, well, that depends on whether you prefer pizza or pasta. You simply can’t go wrong with the Vegan Margherita, but don’t gloss over just how tasty the Aubergine Parmigiana rustica is. Now for vegan pasta dishes: we’re big fans of the Vegan Pomodoro and the Vegan Lentil Ragu.
Get 2 for 1 meals at Zizzi every Sunday to Thursday when you visit with tastecard.
While we’re on Italian food, let’s talk PizzaExpress. PizzaExpress takes pride in their selection of tempting Vegan and gluten–free options.
You can always rely on their Margherita to deliver on great flavour, but if you fancy something a little different, try their Vegan Padana. With vegan mozzarella, caramelised onion, spinach, tomato, and garlic oil, this Padana is truly something worth revisiting once Veganuary is over.
Tuck into 25% off your PizzaExpress when you visit with tastecard from Sunday to Friday.
If you’re giving up meat for Veganuary, you might be worried about missing out on some of your favourite meals. If you’re especially drawn to Latin American cuisine, you’ll have no problem enjoying Vegan versions of your most beloved meals at Las Iguanas.
Las Iguanas has plenty of delicious Vegan options that’ll make Veganuary an absolute breeze. Take their Vegan Burrito and Chilli Con Carne, for example - just as good as the meaty varieties you may be used to. They even have a delicious Bahaian curry, with just the right amount of ginger, garlic, cumin, and more, needed to give it a good kick.
