Wat leuk! Misschien ga ik daar ook een keer naartoe. Verder weet ik dat er in de van ostadestraat een yogacentrum/healthfoodstore/rawfoodrestaurant zit, maar die ken je misschien al (http://www.unlimitedhealth.nl/). Zelf vind ik het niet zo’n hele leuke plek om te zitten, maar misschien is het eten wel heel lekker. En ook op de Overtoom zit OT301 waar je vegan kunt eten (goedkoop, maar wel 1 menu).
Wat betreft die muggen, heb er zelf ook last van en ik zit ‘s nachts als een idioot met een opgerolde krant in de lucht te slaan, maar dat heeft helaas geen zin. Je hebt verder geen last van muggenbulten? Je kunt je insmeren met zo’n creme waar DEET inzit, maar dat stinkt wel (en muggen blijven dan alleen maar op een afstandje, ze gaan niet echt weg).
Sterkte!
(Is jouw fameuze ‘farmers market’ trouwens de Noordermarkt? Ze hebben daar echt zulke lekkere dingen!)
I just hate mosquito’s one of the few animal I do kill! I got a special lamp that I turn on when its dark and I am away: http://www.kampeergoed.nl/muggenval-muggenlamp-blizzz-p-9962.html (something similar to that) There is also lemon anti-mosquito candels, but I don’t like the smell in my place. You can check out some camping stores for anti anti-mosquito defences. I have also looking at laser guided mosquito killer beams, but they are a bit expensive and experimental yet
It’s so hard to find a shop/resto in Belgium. But we have two great vegan restaurants in Ghent and a few shops where you can find great raw/vegan stuff.
About the mosquito’s: It’s unbelievable how they can screw up your nights.
I am lucky because for some reason (more CO2, sweeter blood, better body temperature, …) they prefer to bite my boyfriend. He’s my personal natural friendly pesticide!
Damn that resto looks amazing! Too bad we only have 1 really cool vegan place here in Antwerp, but it’s only open until 6pm
Damn those damn mosquitos!! I always plug in a machine with a timer that spreads some kind of odor.. It does the trick pretty well… It costs about 10 euro and is good for 45 nights..
I’m so jealous! There’s only one organic cafe here and they only have 2 vegan dishes (one having tofu, the other is fries). The only raw foods I can find are salads.
But I have to ask, being an ignorant american who has stumbled on to your site just recently, why are all the menus in English??? Why not Dutch?
About the mosquito’s, in Canada here, we have a newer product called a B12 patch. You wear it and it lasts for 24 hrs. The mosquito’s might land on you but won’t bite. Strange, but people swear by it. I have been getting regular B12 shots and have also noticed that the mosquito’s don’t bother me like they used to. Hope you get more sleep very soon!
Thanks so much for spreading your enthousiastic comments and the beautiful pictures.
It was a pleasure to have you around, so please keep on coming.
I already put a link to your blog on Facebook. Can I use your pictures?
Yay! I come here regularly now to buy some superfoods (they have a GREAT selection) and I have come to see how knowledgable Alec is on his inventory. He always gives me great advice, tips, or a cool new product to test out

Nourish in Utrecht!
The menu looks delish!

Hey Alec, my pleasure! Sure, use any photo you like! See you soon!
This place is awesome! I went here a few months ago and absolutely loved it!

[...] was a great feeling. One I visited in Australia, and with Kitty I went to out to have my first raw vegan café [...]
