Our Story Welcome to Vegan Express. Chef Charles has more than twenty years experience of cooking and running kitchens in the UK and abroad. His passion for vegan food comes from finding great flavour in fresh produce that is cruelty-free and makes little or no impact on the environment. Being fairly recent vegans, it was a powerful realisation to understand that by cutting meat and dairy we did not have to compromise with our passion for tasty delicious food instead pursuing a plant based diet opened up a whole new range of textures and flavours. We want to be a first-class vegan restaurant chain and grow with the seemingly unquenchable appetite for plant-based alternatives to meat. We can cater for parties, corporate and private events, birthday parties etc. You can order custom made cakes and gateux, or our chocolate torte / cheese cake for your party. We are happy to discuss any requirements. Charles & Ulrika Diallo
