However, there is popular German saying: 'A farmer won't eat what he does not know'. Meaning, if you do not know about other foods, you will likely not try it and miss out. I can talk a little about that, because in the one year plus we have been running VeggieVictory – Nigeria's 1st Vegan & Vegetarian Restaurant - we had encounters with so many people that were initially sceptical about the deliciousness of non-meat food. Literally only when they had their first bite of VegMeat meals like our VeganSuya the story change and they were instantly convinced about this alternative and healthier food option. At VeggieVictory we always knew that we have to get people to have their first try of our food.
The Lagos Veg Fest is now the boldest step towards promoting a delicious Veg lifestyle. From October 10th to 12th, Freedom Park in Lagos Island on Broad Street will host the so far largest Vegan & Vegetarian festival in Nigeria. As if that is not enough, it won't be only on Veg food festival but also a platform for healthy, natural, green and sustainable products. Please visit the website www.lagosvegfest.com to get more information on this unique festival.
At the heart of Lagos Veg Fest is the exhibition site with over 30 stands including a Veg food court, natural cosmetics and health products, healthy food items and so much more. Just to give you an idea: 'Nuts About Cakes' will introduce their healthy cakes; SoFresh will have delicious Green and other smoothies, Green Grill House offers crispy salads, VeggieVictory – Nigeria's 1st Vegan & Vegetarian Restaurant comes with Vegan Suya, Shawarma and Nigerian dishes and so much more.
