Continue, Food expo: VegFest Brighton 2019.
This part mainsly shows some stalls, cooking demo & kids area.

In order to  browse leisurely and take photos,
I arrived after the busiest lunch hours.

6 different protein shakes -- free to try. 




There is a large kids area for interesting snack class
hosted by a guy dressed in dramatic costumes. Not in photo.

And a bicycle-powered blender for kids to make their own fruit smoothies/shakes.


(sorry for some blurry pics)


This stall's tasting containers in  little boat shape.
Curries.






Lots of choices of food.


Funny names: Fake & Kidme pie.   (vegan steak & kidney pie?)




For those who still loves the sensation of sinking their teeth in sausages...
vegan hotdogs. Drawing inspiration from 5 international cuisines


I didn't take much pictures for stalls which do fruit smoothies or fruit juices.
Quite a number of them. Naturally good.



Loving Hut express is there, too.
Also dishes from around the world.



Plant-based a.k.a. vegan  in Thai style.

Greek style.


one of the cooking demos.


There are various talks, too.
Stalls of clothings, make up, skin care, interesting accessories, etc.
The VegFest Brighton website have a list of exhibitors.

There are 2 or 3 gin bars, beer bar, wine stalls, too.

Got a free gift.
Each visitor can choose from 3:
a bottled drink including kombucha,
a jar of humus stuffed cherry-tomato,
a small bar of coffee chocolate.
All plant-based (a.k.a vegan).
I chose choc.


I also tasted 3 different types of Ferme the fermented cashew nut cheese.
 Cicioni is also nice.

Such expo are good -
tasting/trying, seeing new products, expo promotional prices.

I bought a jar of special mix turmeric drink powder to help me help reduce internal inflamation.
A flexible silicon cup cover.
A can of jack fruit.
A trial pack of fermented tea-leaves for use in salad. (Burma/Myanmar salad Lahpet Thoke)
Pack of 4 pick-n-mix small beers.


Since I have to travel a long journey,
I didn't buy those delicious plant-based nut-based cheese.

As the bag is already heavy, I have not bought herbs pot plant.

Thankful for a nice afternoon.

Going to expo is nice experience. Shops from far away places gather in one place. Expo special promotional prices. Tasting. Even price draws. Talks and cooking demonstration...

I bought electronic ticket beforehand.
Arriving around late lunch time.
Food first.

Though I do fancy an ocassional pie, since there are many other choices upstairs,
I quickly walked passed stalls of pies.

Among various cuisines, I chose this
pulled jackfruit bun. Interesting contrast.
(I tried some others before)
From Manchester.



The container is  composable vegware.


Ha! KFS, not KFC.
Sei-tan is a plant based protein.



 Many choices in each stall.
All plant-based.
Inspirational ideas.


This one below is lovely. Free tasting of Thai curry jackfruit with rice.  Jackfruit in brine each can only GBP 1.
  They also sell banana blossom, many sauces, coconut milk, coconut condensed milk, coconut evaporated milk, coconut cream...

Busy tasting different plant-based, nut-based cheese products, forgotten to take photos. Ferme is nice. 3 flavours of cashews fermentino.
