I don’t eat out a lot, so I would welcome any suggestions for some good spots in Dublin City centre. I’ve been vegan a few years but the girl in question is more ‘vegan-curious’. I know there’s a wealth of places around the city these days I just don’t know what’s best!
Thanks guys
Hadn't heard of it until recently. It only started in 2024. There are 2 membership types- €25 for annual or €300 for lifetime membership. The funds are used for campaigns, advocacy etc. but they're also transparent that some go to website design, accountancy etc.
I'd be up for paying for a lifetime membership if they can get a tax break and do more with the lump sum than an annual subscription but, with it being so new, I want to know more about the staying power of it and the momentum behind it before committing to something that might fizzle out in the next year or so.
What are your thoughts and are you a member?
Picture doesn't do it much justice at all, but it was absolutely delicious. It is the national dish of Iran as well, apparently. They really know food over there.. This is the recipe I used but swapped out the Artichoke for Jackfruit as I couldn't get it. Will make sure to get it for the next time I make it https://plantbasedpersian.com/khoresh-ghormeh-sabzi/
More limited is probably the better way to put it. But I remember post covid, vegan alternatives were very common in supermarkets.
I feel like doing my weekly shop it’s becoming harder and harder to find non-frozen options, and even eating out it seems like there might be one veggie option on the menu which at most that seems like an afterthought.
I live in Dublin for context, just wanted to get other people's thoughts on this.
Recommandation for food in: Kilkenny, Killarny, Dingle, Doolin, Galway 🥰
Anyone else at Dublin Pride in Merrion Park yesterday go up to the tent with the sign saying "watch a movie and win a prize" because I was left feeling very upset by the approach of the group to give no content warnings on a video depicting the graphic slaughter of cows, to then corner me immediately after watching it to belittle me for drinking milk. I found it very distasteful and out of place for the event. My girlfriend had asked them what the video was before we watched, too, and all they said was that it was 'about consumerism'. This is the kind of thing that could really impact someone with trauma without giving them the proper warnings before watching. Made me less inclined to become vegan and I'm already a vegetarian who has grown up with parents who work in animal welfare. If anyone else had a similar experience, I'd love to hear that I'm not going crazy.
Edit: emailed the pride organisers about it and it turns out they were not officially part of the event and had snuck in and set up in one of the empty tents! Makes their behaviour even worse.
This one is lidl
Hello, American traveling to Dublin and then onto Galway/west coast for car camping and hiking.
Curious what are people's go to favorites at different chains? I searched the sub and unfortunately I mainly came across posts complaining about different places dropping their favorite vegan products or posts that didn't really have specific product names and their respective stores...
Lidl, Tesco, Sainsbury, Aldi are major chains?? Convenience stores, whatever you got. No restrictions and love sweets. I'll be sleeping in a van (tentative plan) and hiking for most of the trip.
I assume there are plenty of restaurants to be found on Happy Cow in Dublin. Open to all suggestions on both food products, restaurants, and travel. I'm in Dublin for a few days visiting a friend and then literally zero set plans. In country for two weeks. Much appreciated! Míle buíochas!
So I started eating soya chunks from Holland and Barrett for the last few months and I've been quite happy with using them as a meat replacement. Their dry weight works out to about 6.20 Euros per kg which I think is a good deal considering the average per kg of chicken is about 8 Euros.
However H and B have run out of stock and I'm wondering can I get recommendations for an alternative way to buy this stuff? Perhaps better value alternative that tastes good. Thanks
