For the Braised Fried Fish Maw Seafood Treasure Soup, the staff portioned it into ten smaller bowls before serving it to us. Not sure if it is because I am holding a camera, but my bowl came with more chunks of crab meat and fish maw. Basically, a seafood soup thickened with starch so the ingredients seem to be suspended/frozen in the soup. Black vinegar and white pepper accompanied this soup so feel free to add some to it.

Well, the Roasted Crispy Chicken with Prawn Crackers was warm and tender to eat, it however wasn’t crispy at it. And just like everywhere else in Singapore, they referred to this deep-fried chicken as a roasted chicken. Sprinkle a bit of the salt & pepper before putting it into the mouth. A lacklustre dish but thank goodness, the prawn crackers were crispy though.

This Steamed Hybrid Garoupa in Hong Kong Style was cut into sections just before they served it to us. This hybrid grouper is probably a cross between the giant grouper (Epinephelus lanceolatus) and brown-marbled grouper or tiger grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus) and given the Dragon Tiger Grouper (龙虎斑) name. The fish got to be very fresh to be steamed and cooked with just a simple condiment of soya sauce, julienned spring onions and cilantro leaves for garnish. The end result, sweet springy flesh with collagen like skin that is so good to eat.

The Braised Whole 10-Head Abalone with Sea Cucumber and Spinach was up next but the process of waiting for the next dish to be served was a long one as in-between the hosts are showing us video stories of the newly married couple and plus the live singing by the friends and band. Ten pieces each of the abalone and sea cucumber sitting atop a bed of blanched Popeye’s favourite green vegetable. Why 10 you may ask? Because a table usually seat ten people so the food portions are divided equally so each get a piece of everything (for the expensive ingredients that is). The only complaint for this dish is that the spinach is on the bitter side.

Like an overturned basket or nest, spilling out Deep-Fried Prawns with Black Truffle Mayonnaise Sauce. If there is anything to change for the presentation, I would move the red and green coral lettuces from under the eatable nest and placed it in the nest for a more dramatic effect. Anyway, these truffle gratings lend an aromatic and earthy fragrances to the classic mayo prawns topped with orange flying fish roe. My colleague and I detected a mild spicy hint of wasabi in it but another colleague said it is from the truffle and mayo combo. Differences aside, this is one dish I won’t mind having again.

I always love this noodle served at the end of the dinner courses just before dessert. The Braised Ee-Fu Noodles with Yellow Chives and Straw Mushrooms is a usual staple at wedding due to the fact it is also known as longevity noodles (寿面). Normally, I would consume more than a bowl of the yi mein (伊面) but that night I was already quite stuffed from the dishes served and I was leaving room for dessert. :D

By the time the last dish was up and the clock was ticking closer to 11pm. The warm Teochew Yam Paste with Gingko Nut and Coconut Milk with its gooey and smooth yam (taro) paste and whole gingko nuts smothered in thickened coconut milk is bursting with sweetness and a great comfort to many of us Singaporeans. I liked the fact that the chef tuned the sugar level to just sweet enough as I preferred mine not too saccharine. Anyway, I just had to ask for another bowl as it was just too good to pass up.

Dinner is now over and after shaking hands with the groom, bride and their respective parents, it is time to head to the train station to catch the train home.

सभी लोगों के लिए फायदेमंद नहीं है Soyabean, जानें किन लोगों को करना चाहिए परहेज

नई दिल्ली: वैसे तो सोयाबीन सेहत के लिए कई तरह से फायदेमंद होता है और इस कारण इसे पोषक तत्वों के खजाने के तौर पर भी देखा जाता है. प्लांट बेस्ड यानी पेड़-पौधों से प्राप्त होने वाले प्रोटीन (Protein) का सबसे अच्छा स्त्रोत सोयाबीन (Soyabean) ही है. इसलिए जो लोग नॉन वेजिटेरियन भोजन (Non-Veg Food) खाकर शरीर के लिए जरूरी प्रोटीन हासिल नहीं कर पाते उन्हें अपनी डाइट में सोयाबीन को जरूर शामिल करना चाहिए…

Give your body a deep cleansing detox to reboot your health

A short detox can make a massive difference to how you feel for weeks afterwards.

Not only is weight loss inevitable, as you’ll lose excess fluid, but a cleanse will also reset your energy, improve your concentration and clear up skin niggles.

The idea behind our diet is to give your body a break, freeing up energy so that your cells, tissues and organs can work efficiently once again. We don’t advise diving in at the deep end straight away – you’ll get better results if you do some prep work first, so we recommend putting a few ‘pretox’ strategies in place at least five days beforehand. This involves phasing out certain types of foods, along with undertaking a few lifestyle changes. We’ve also listed handy what-to-do advice in case you get stuck and some simple after-care tips. Ready to feel great again? You’re just three days away from a new you!

Pretox must-dos

Prepare for your cleanse with these top tips

Sleep more

Sleep is a prerequisite for renewal and rejuvenation of your body’s cells. Aim to get around eight to nine hours of shut-eye to support your immune system and nourish your cognitive health.

Say goodbye to sugar

Five days before starting the detox, cut out the obvious sources of sugar like ready meals, chocolate, sweets, biscuits and the biggie: booze. Whatever your tipple of choice, alcohol will dehydrate you and deplete your body of important nutrients.

Limit wheat

Wheat is difficult for your body to digest and can cause inflammation and some digestive discomfort, so instead try to replace wheat from breads and cereals with protein-rich foods like yoghurt and eggs.

Go plain and simple

Five days before starting our food plan, keep your diet simple with easy to digest foods. Think porridge with berries and seeds for breakfast, baked sweet potato with tuna and salad for lunch and lean meat and steamed veggies for dinner. Make a shopping list before hitting the supermarket so you load up on healthy food rather than treats.

Drink up

Keep your body hydrated with water – around 1.5 litres per day should do it. This will help to flush out toxins, clear skin and reduce bloating. Aim to cut caffeine too, as it releases the stress hormone cortisol, which increases abdominal fat.

During the detox

Healthy advice to help you get the most out of the plan

Wake your body

Kick-start your digestive system by drinking a cup of warm water with lemon first thing.

Body brush

Dry brush before your bath or shower, starting from the soles of your feet and moving upwards, as this kind of lymphatic massage helps to detoxify, too.

Sip water regularly

Continue to drink 1.5 litres of water and sip on nurturing herbal teas.

Have an Epsom salt bath

Have a hot bath or foot soak with Epsom salts in the evening to help your body release toxins.

After-care rules

Top tips to maximise your results post-detox

Take it slowly

Ease yourself back into three meals a day slowly, keeping the good stuff in your diet as much as possible. Leafy salads and white fish, veggie soups and chicken with roasted veggies are all excellent choices.

Green up your diet

Eat something green at every meal (think kale, spinach, watercress) as the green veggie family can really help to keep your liver ticking over. Plus, greens can help regulate your body’s natural pH and may even help ward off disease.

Try eating fermented foods

Gut-friendly fermented foods like sauerkraut and kimchi are a useful addition to a balanced diet, as they increase levels of healthy bacteria, which help to keep bloating at bay.

Get sweating!

Exercise is just what the body needs following a detox. A good sweat session helps to remove unwanted toxins from the body, so combine high-intensity workouts like running, cycling or our metabolism-boosting workout (on page 70) with low-key yoga for the perfect balance.

Stay off sugar

If you find it difficult to control your sweet tooth once you’ve finished the detox, try swapping out nasty sweeteners and ordinary sugar for stevia. This naturally sweet plant extract won’t spike insulin levels or create any of the roller-coaster energy crashes that come with regular sugar. Xylitol is another good sugar substitute.

Detox SOS

Give your body a boost with these super supplements

1 Vega Aloe Vera Herbal Complex

Regulate your body’s pH levels with these aloe vera capsules. They also help to repair the intestinal lining and give your body a push to flush away waste.

£5.09, nutricentre.com

2 Neal’s Yard Remedies Power Berry Complex

Supercharge skin and protect it against the ageing effects of harmful free radicals with this blend of bilberry, acai and rosehip.

3 Sun Chlorella ‘A’

This green algae detoxifying agent is rich in the vitamins and minerals that help to improve digestive health and liver function.

4 Optibac Probiotics Extra Strength

With 20 billion live bacteria per capsule, this high-strength probiotic supplement helps to finely tune the balance of healthy microorganisms in the gut, which relieves bloating and aids overall digestive health.

5 Holland and Barrett Milk Thistle

This milk thistle supplement contains the active ingredient silymarin, which supports liver health by blocking certain toxins from entering the liver and boosting cell regeneration.

THE 3-DAY SUPER CLEANSE

Our diet involves replacing breakfast, lunch and snacks with juices, soups and smoothies, while still allowing a nutritious dinner at the end of the day. Breakfast is a cup of lemon water followed by a different green juice every day to help kick-start liver health. This is followed by a filling mid-morning smoothie snack, a hearty soup for lunch and a protein-rich healthy dinner. Our diet is designed to revitalise rather than restrict, so if you feel very hungry between lunch and dinner you can add in a cup of miso soup.

You should refrain from intense exercise while undertaking the diet (relaxing yoga and meditation is fine).

Please note:

If you have a medical condition, please seek advice from your GP before embarking on the diet. Do not follow this plan if you are pregnant or trying to get pregnant.

I had my little munchkin, my bundle of joy in my arms along with my older naughty brat and life could not have been happier. Months rolled on taking care of my wonderful little treasure while pursuing a full time career that knew no hours of travel and work.

A year went by and it was little one’s first birthday. Saree was my choice for outfit for the party. To my worst nightmare despite all my endeavors to shrink myself and squeeze in, I had to put away one blouse after the other! Angered, I took out the weighing scale and checked the reading. Alarmed! As if it were a ghost. It read 74.6! I reset the scale to recheck as if the machine would show a different reading to please me! Again it said, 74.6.

I had always been in a great shape and looked younger than my age. Even after my first delivery, I shelled the extra pounds over couple of months. An unknown and undoubtedly annoying sound reverberated calling me FAT. I remembered my sister jokingly telling me that I looked like an amma. Though that time I had retaliated telling her that well yes I am amma of two!

I am 161 cm and medium built. By no means could I call myself fit at 74.6 kgs! That day I pulled up a pair of jeans with a pullover for the party. It was almost the end of December 2014. My New Year Resolution was Weight Loss. Weight loss! OMG that too almost 15 kgs! I was 26 years and 52 kg before my first pregnancy. Post-partum my weight stabilized at 57 kgs and since I looked almost toned, I really did not care about it. I had tried gym once earlier out of hobby and I so well remembered how I wasted the subscription! The entire hour I spent there was at looking at the clock to shout out loud that it was sixty minutes and time to leave! Crazy dieting; well no way was this my choice. Outdoors anyways gave me nightmares with so many dogs around and my scared soul finding corners to evade them. In short, I was totally confounded with the how part. Eventually I resorted to Google baba to look for ‘my kind’ of means to smoothen my tyres.

Having done all this research, I realised working out was the only choice available apart from the 7 day GM diet (in which you can eat the permitted item/s for the day in as much quantity as your body demands) (you may like to read thru the link that acted like a blessing in that time of crisis https://www.thefitindian.com/the-fastest-indian-vegetarian-diet-to-lose-weight/).

My exercise regime comprised of-

10 minutes of warm up

45 minutes of cardio including treadmill, cross-trainer and stationary bike

30 minutes of strength training one body part each day

20 minutes of floor exercises and yoga on alternate days

I had the temptation of climbing up the weighing scale every single day to check for any improvement but in vain 😦 But let me admit, though my body did feel soar with its new routine, even if there was no change in weight, I did feel more vibrant and energized even in the first week! I kept wondering how I had not enjoyed working out earlier! On the lighter side, maybe I enjoy bigger challenges more 🙂 After I got my body accustomed at the gym for a week, I started with first day of GM diet. Being a vegetarian, I searched for the veg version of the program. Exercise was supposed to be light to moderate on these days. Since eating was confined to select items on each day, I decided just to go for cardio, floor or yoga sessions on these days and skip strength that requires lots of protein intake after the regime.

Day 1 Morning weight 74.5 kg

The first day is supposed to be the Fruit Day (minus mangoes and grapes). It was the month of February and I spent the day munching on apples, pomegranates, guavas and oranges. The motivation to get lean was so strong that I truly did not feel hungry.

Day 2 Morning weight 73.5 kg (OMG! OMG! OMG! 1 kg gone in a single day)

On the second day of the GM diet one is supposed to eat only Vegetables that could be raw, boiled or very lightly sauteed. However, one can start with a boiled potato with butter in the morning. I had bought the exotic vegetable stock the day before only and likewise commenced the day with paraboiled assortment of peas, beans, carrots, broccoli, red and yellow peppers and cauliflower. I added a little of lemon, white pepper and oregano to make it more sumptuous and had the same combo the entire day. The day went rather effortlessly with gym time in the evening.

Day 3 Morning weight 72.5 kg (Gracious God! another 1 Kg gone!)

Day three is a mix of fruits and vegetables. Apart from fruits and the remaining stock from day 2, I ate raw carrots, beetroot, cucumbers and lettuse leaves too. Again the day was not harsh on the tummy that otherwise solicited chocolates and pizzas! Ofcourse, two kgs lost in a matter of two days were an unmatched piece of motivation.

Day4 Morning weight 72 kg (Dissapointment followed by consolation… atleast .5 kg gone lady!)

The fourth day is the banana (upto 6) and skimmed milk (upto 1 litre) day. I prepared banana shake right in the morning with 5 bananas and 1 litre milk and kept sipping through the same the entire day.

Day 5 Morning weight 71 kg (yayyyy another 1 kg gone!)

On GM diet, Day five is a blessed kind of a day on which one can munch on soya nuggets, paneer, tomatoes, boiled rajma, soup made of capsicums, tomatoes, onion, ginger and garlic. While I preferred having boiled kidney beans with chopped onion, tomato and cucumber with lemon juice in the morning, I chose to eat brown rice with paneer and soya chunks for lunch and soup for dinner. In between meals I kept munching on raw salad.

Day 6 Morning weight 71 kg (Oops no change)

I surely was disappointed having lost no weight on day five and kept cursing myself for probably having eaten too much (while now I realise that was not true). Nevertheless, this was to be a tomato free day while all ingredients of day five could be consumed. Despite initial shock, I did not let my morale go down and ate safe meals comprising of raw fruits and veggies alsong with soup. I also had moong dal dprout salad for dinnere along with soup ofcourse hoping to see some better result the follwing day.

Day 7 Morning weight 70.5 kg (thank God for this .5 kg)

Well yes, I was feeling much lighter and brighter by day seven. I was happy to have managed to shell 4 kgs of weight which otherwise I could not do 14 months after my second delivery! The entire day was spent munching on fruits and vegetables. I had a bowl of brown rice with soup for lunch and sprouts with skimmed yoghurt for dinner.

Day 8 Morning weight 71 kg (.5 kg is back to my alarm)

I was happy that effectively I had lost 3.5 kg of weight and did feel better. And yes, immensely motivated too. With the resolution to tone my body further, I resumed my earlier exercise regime that included strength training. A lot of reading had me realize my body type that is endomorph. I inculcated a lot of HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) in my cardio sessions in a routine to boost my metabolism. I prepared home-made almond butter and experimented with many more healthy recipes. I ensured I did not have more than one cheat day in a week and that my resistance training was adequately supplemented by enough protein intake which for me was in form of soya chunks, paneer and other low fat dairy products apart from peanut and almond butter. Over all, I made a change in my lifestyle. Cravings for chocolates and sweets (mithai) did not deviate me from my goals. Thankfully, fried food has never been a teaser for me. Ultimately, after 10 months of patience driven due diligence, I finally hit 62 kgs and it has been almost three years now that I have maintained so.

The road I travelled from 74.6 kgs to 62 kgs was indeed tough. There were occasions when I was (pretty much humanly) tempted to give up. I remember when I hit a plateau at 69 kgs and despite all the endurance, it would not buzz an inch further. This was the most trying time when I kept going. I did more research on what to do when we hit plateaus. To my utter surprise one of the things I realized that though I was not losing weight any further, yet I was getting into a shape that was better than ever. You know what, the weight was owing to the lean muscle that I was gaining by doing the right kind of resistance training. Then I was not-so-regular with the workout for a fortnight while travelling to another city. And whoa, guess what? Despite not exercising, during this little break my weight dropped another 3 kgs all by itself! Another round of reading and I realised that taking small breaks is actually good. And yes, I had set small targets for myself. The day I got below 70kg, I gifted myself a new pair of Asics training shoes that I had been eying for long, and when I hit under 65, it was a (well deserved) wardrobe change (pretty much required as I had gone down two sizes by then:)!

My Weight Loss Success Mantra

GM diet was absolutely not essential and I could have achieved my target otherwise too. However, I admit, for me it did work like a booster. Having lost 3.5 kgs right at the start kept me convinced that I could actually lose weight! For you, you yourself have to determine what could keep you best motivated.

Drink lots of water (preferably warm if not hot). For every 20 kgs of body weight, you need to intake 1 litre of water with a capping a 5 litres beyond which the kidneys get taxed.

Treat yourself like a human and not like a machine. While adhering to routines is a must, yet don’t be too taxing on yourself. If your body (not mood) solicits an additional break on some day, do allow it.

HIIT works wonders. In my personal experience too, a 20 minute HIIT can compensate for your otherwise 60 minutes of cardio. Aside, you keep burning calories for hours after finishing workout as it challenges the anarobic system. For me, now, cardio just means 20 minutes of HIIT apart from floor and strength training. It implies going to the maximum of your heart rate and then letting it get back to average or moderate state. Beginners can do it in ratio of 1:2 or 1:3 also depending upon their fitness level which later could be in the varying ratio of 1:1. For example 30 seconds of maximum heart rate followed by 60/90 seconds of cool down at slow/moderate pace, which later can be 30 seconds of maximum heart rate followed by 30/45 seconds of cool down.

Strength training is a must. While cardio helps us dissolve fat, resistance or strength training helps us build lean muscle and also catalyse the entire weight loss process.

Food Log. Sounds like heights of obsession but trust me it really works. There are several apps available like livestrong (www.livestrong.com) that can help you track your food, water, exercise and calories and keep you well motivated and on track.

BMI is not the only and actual indicator of fitness. There is a lot like age, child birth, muscle mass etc., that contributes to the weight you carry. As in my case too, considering just the BMI bit, I might sound kind of overweight at 62 kgs for my medium 5.3 frame but if I get on a scale that also measures other parameters, it is my muscle mass that contributes to this BMI and not body fat! So don’t let the formula of BMI depress you.

Never give up. While it sounds clichéd, there is a lot of fact in the statement. There are bound to be times when you would feel that it is too much, or too long, or too intense. But, keep yourself motivated. I would rather suggest you hang a picture of someone who you would like to seek motivation from for your fitness goal (think of the abs and toned body of a mom like Mandira Bedi at 45!)

Eat right. Make better food choices and believe me you, it works wonders. One of the mantras is not to stock the undesired items like crisps, biscuits, sweets etc. as when we are hungry we get tempted to munch on them. Instead, keep dryfruits, fruits, chopped raw veggies, seeds handy so satiate the hunger pangs. I have a sweet tooth and for me letting go of sweets (though not altogether) was a challenge. For this, I started moving to darker chocolates, sugarless tea and coffee, fruit cream with honey instead of sugar and the like. I did allow myself one cheat day in a week. And trust me, once the clothes start getting even a bit lose, your mind would not command you to eat unhealthy!

Supplementing the Workout pre and post. Irrespective of the time of the day, working out hungry, in my opinion, is never a good idea. Before a workout, eat a small snack atleast 30 minutes prior to keep yourself energized and give your best shot at the workout. Keep hydrated. And never neglect enough protein post workout in dearth of which one might lose muscle instead! Protein is an integral macro-nutrient that plays intrinsic role in repairing of damaged muscle tissue. The quantity depends upon your workout. In general, a person body needs .80 gm to 1 gm of protein per kg of body weight. I ensured to take 20-25 gm of protein in form of peanut/almond butter, quiona, soya nuggets, paneer, boiled eggs etc post my workout sessions.

Fitness Tracker. People have different views about it, but I love the idea of a fitness tracker. I use a Fitbit Blaze and I’m crazy about it. It helps keep a track of steps, heart-beat, actual calories burnt, exercise of different levels apart from other features like a watch, alarm clock and even relaxation device! There are multiple options available if one would like to consider any.

Right Bra and Shoes. While women do pay heed to workout attitre, I have felt that the right sports bra and shoes sometimes go lacking. Do invest in a couple of high-support sports bra with the right fit to ensure the boobies stay well in shape (sports bras are available in light, medium and high support. Depending upon our intensity of workout, we need to choose one). Shoes are another investment that is a must. Depending upon what sport you choose, select the pair of shoes technologically made to serve that purpose to ensure comfort and avoid any injuries (there are different types of shoes meant for trails, running, walking, training, hiking, dancing etc.).

Have an active Day. Don’t freak if you are not able to make it for a work out some day. Stay active and do whatever is possible. Activities like squats, lunges, floor, yoga etc. can be done just anywhere.

Set small milestones and appreciate yourself once you achieve these goals.

Losing weight is definitely not all about looks. Being over-weight/having excessive fat hinders health and is also responsible for many health issues. It is about a lifestyle change and not weight loss alone. My target was to take baby steps towards the goal without being less Hitler-like on my own self. Well yes, I do feel much younger, more energised and healthier today than I felt in February of 2015 when I started this journey of getting fit. The compliments I receive, do add an extra glow to my face 🙂

Happy Fitness to You!

Loads of love,

Finally! Wrapchic Makes London Vegan Fast Food Easy and Delicious

Wrapchic Tower Hill

What do you do when you’re hungry and searching for something to eat in a new city? This girl was famished and needed to find a London vegan restaurant or at least a restaurant with vegan options. That’s when it hit me. Why not give Wrapchic a try? I previously visited a Wrapchic in Soho and knew I had to go out of my way to visit Wrapchic again. This time I visited the new Tower Hill location and I’m so glad I did.

London Vegan Fast Food

Once you step inside the this London vegan fast food restaurant, you know it’s different. Full disclosure here: Wrapchic isn’t a full vegan restaurant, but when I can find more than one item on a menu, for me it’s a vegan restaurant. Whether you choose to dine in or take away, there are tons of choices for vegans, vegetarians, or carnivores at Wrapchic. Finally, somewhere I can eat and not stress about only ordering a side of steamed broccoli.

Other food options including wraps, curry pot, wraposas, and even breakfast. That’s right – get a wraplette with eggs and filling or a paratha with your choice of filling or even a baked good with a Wrapchic Indian inspired twist.

What Is Wrapchic?

Inside Wrapchic

In 2012 Wrapchic set out to become “the most loved burrito company in the world” and you’ll feel the love the second you step inside one of their restaurants. The menu board is displayed at the front of the restaurant so step and take a peek at the offerings. From there choose whether you want a burrito, bowl, wrap, or one of the many other Wrapchic offerings.

Wrapchic menu

Not sure what to order or need a little more time? Have a seat at one of the tables and take your time looking over the menu. The staff will even come over and answer any questions you might have. What other London vegan restaurants offer such an easy process for ordering?

The great wall of Wrapchic

Even if you have special dietary needs, you’ll never feel like a misfit here. Check out all the love on the Great Wall of Wrapchic, which will make you feel like you’re not alone here.

Want to understand more about Wrapchic? Check out the spice story in the Spice Bazaar. In case you didn’t know, they have a strict no fry policy, too. And the interior design is a comfortable Indian/Mexican shabby chic mix of textures and colors.

Wrapchic Burrito and wrapchos

What's a Wrapchic burrito? It's a flour tortilla with choice of filling, salad & chutney on a base of hummus or sour cream. Click To Tweet

Paneer Masala Wrapchic burrito and Wrapchos

Mr. TSG was really hungry and wanted to devour the entire menu. Although I was in search of a London vegan restaurant, Mr. TSG is a vegetarian and didn’t hold back on dairy items including cheese. His choices included the Paneer Masala Wrapchic burrito and wrapchos.

Paneer Masala Wrapchic burrito and Wrapchos

What’s a Wrapchic burrito? It’s a flour tortilla with choice of filling, salad & chutney on a base of hummus or sour cream. Mr. TSG chose the sour cream, paneer masala filling (Indian soft cheese coated in tava spice served with tikka sauce), and additional jalapeños. Think Indian meets Mexican inside a tortilla and that’s a Wrapchic burrito.

Paneer Masala Wrapchic burrito

What did he think of the burrito? He thought the size was great and that the mix of the rice, chutney, slaw, and paneer made for a different, but completely tasty burrito. In fact, it was so big that he could’ve stopped at just the burrito alone for lunch. But we all know he didn’t just have a burrito. What were the wrapchos like? If you like nachos, you’ll like wrapchos, especially if you choose a filling to add on top. Both were served with three side sauces including mango chutney, Fire in the Hole sauce, and a red sauce.

Wrapchic Fresh Sauces

Side sauces of Mango Chutney and Fire in the Hole

Everything at Wrapchic is fresh, including their sauces. They even brought us over bottles of the sauces to try out. As you can see from the date labels, because the sauces are made fresh, they’re designed to be use immediately. The Fire in the Hole sauce, a dairy filled -hot and creamy green sauce was one that Mr. TSG liked, but I couldn’t try. He said he liked that it enhanced the burritos taste and was hot, but not so that you couldn’t enjoy the food. This coming from the man who likes hot sauce so hot he starts hiccuping.

Wrapchic Soya Amritsari Bowl and wrapchips

What's a Wrapchic bowl? It's all the goodness that goes inside a burrito minus the tortilla. Click To Tweet

Soya Amritsari bowl and wrapchips

As for me, I decided to try the Soya Amritsari bowl and wrapchips. What’s a Wrapchic bowl? It’s all the goodness that goes inside a burrito minus the tortilla. Mine was served with rice, black beans, Soya Amritsari (meaty soya chunks coated with amritsari sauce), slaw, lettuce, and salsa. The soy chunks with the rice were perfectly paired with the crunch of the slaw and lettuce. It was filling, satisfying, and a strange but most noteworthy delicious mix of Indian and Mexican flavors.

Soya Amritsari bowl and wrapchips

The wrapchips as a side are oven baked potato wedges lightly spiced with tasty Indian spices. Not sure why I eat so many potatoes when I’m in England, from jacket potatoes to chips to crips all the time. It’s the exact opposite of how I eat at home, but they’re so good.

At Wrapchic I could easily order a vegan meal off the menu without issue and I received a balanced and flavorful meal. I felt satisfied afterwards and didn’t feel weighed down with preservatives or feel the after effects of fried food. Overall, my meal was fast, but delicious and I wouldn’t hesitate to visit Wrapchic again the next time I’m looking for a London vegan restaurant.

Drinks and Dessert

Menu, beverages, and dessert

While I would’ve liked a lassi, an Indian yoghurt based drink, since there weren’t any non-dairy versions available, I chose the light and refreshing apple and cucumber drink instead. Mr. TSG didn’t hold back and chose a diet Pepsi and two desserts. If it seems like one wouldn’t be enough for him, you’re right. First he had the Mango Mousse, a light and creamy mango mousse with mango on the bottom of the cup. Then for his second dessert he chose the Saffron Cheesecake. Think a cheesecake cup with a graham cracker base and a smooth mousse over top. I think he liked both because although he was quite full at this point, he could still enjoy a light, sweet ending to his meal. Each was only a few bites offering a nice light, sweet dessert that tasted like an indulgence without being heavy and calorie laden.

Taste the Revolution

Wrapchic is a revolution as far as London vegan food is concerned. Let’s be real here for a second. It’s a revolution as far as food in London or in any city today is served. Fast food can be delicious, vibrant, and healthy if you set out to create this type of food from the get go rather than fried and greasy food served fast. If Wrapchic can do it, imagine the possibilities.

Final Thoughts

Wrapchic Tower Hill

Sometimes you want to break free from heavy food, sit down meals, and fancy food. If you’re looking for a healthy meal fast, Wrapchic is a perfect option. There aren’t many places to order healthy food fast rather than junk food in minutes so why not choose it as an alternative to a quick meal? The next time you’re in London, take the Tube to the Tower Hill station and walk about 3 minutes to Wrapchic on Byward street. If you’re looking for an affordable meal with healthy options, whether vegetarian, vegan, or otherwise, you have to stop in at Wrapchic.

Have you tried Wrapchic yet? What did you think? Do you know of another London vegan restaurant I should try? Let me know in the comments below. While you’re here, check out the other Travel Shop Girl dining reviews, too.

On my new SPONTANEOUS TRAVEL SCALE of 1-5, with 1 being super easy and spontaneous and 5 being you better plan far in advance, this is definitely a 1. With hours from 8 am 6 pm (Monday – Wednesday) and 7 pm (Thursday – Friday), and 11 am – 5 pm on Saturday and Sunday, having a healthy and delicious fast meal at Wrapchic is a no brainer. That’s why Wrapchic gets a BIG thumbs up as far as spontaneous travel goes.

While we were provided complimentary meals from Wrapchic, as always all opinions and photographs, unless otherwise noted, are my own.
