Impossible Foods – Impossible Burger

Hot on the heels of Beyond Meat (or did it beat them to the market?) comes the Impossible Burger, which TBDV had the chance to sample a few weeks ago in Hong Kong, only the 2nd market globally to have these plant based burgers available. Let’s get straight to it – TBDV preferred this to the Beyond Burger. The taste...

Beet Restaurant – Gough Street, NoHo, Hong Kong

A rather special occasion prompted a search for a new, interesting and vegetarian friendly (obviously – duh!) restaurant in Hong Kong.

For a food festival, I can think of no finer setting: On the beer side, we had a choice of mainly macro beers, with Heroes Beer being the notable exception, even if they did only have...
