As we try eating healthier in January, a study has shown that Bath has the most places to eat out that cater for vegans and vegetarians.
Every January, many of us attempt to go vegan for the full 31 days to learn how to eat healthier and also reduce our carbon footprint. Last year, more than half a million people across the globe signed up for the challenge with even more showing interest this year. You can learn more about the challenge, download a free recipe book, and meet others taking up veganism at veganuary.com/
It can be tricky to know what to cook (we recommend this roasted red wine, pear and chocolate tart recipe) or how to treat yourself without caving to temptation and cracking open the cream or cheese. This is particularly true if you are heading out to a restaurant or café to meet friends and family.
Luckily for us, a new study has shown that Bath in Somerset has the most recommended vegan cafes and restaurants per 10 000 people in the UK. Brindley Group used TripAdvisor data to discover which cities offer the most highly reviewed eateries and which of those cater best to a range of different diets. The city also topped the leader board for most vegetarian and gluten-free restaurants. You can read the full study here.
