Bella Vegan Café and Exploring Palmer Road, Muizenberg

By Crushland @crushland

We popped around to the quaint little Palmer Road in Muizenberg Village one lunchtime last week and discovered that Bolo Bolo has moved! The new place is also a 100% vegan café with a similar feel, and also kept the Mexican hot chocolate on the menu :) Bella Vegan promotes slow food, which means that everything is created from scratch, so it’s best if you had no time restrictions to sit down and enjoy the atmosphere. Unfortunately we had to get back to work, so while Ru ordered a vegan burger and Lee plumped for the chickpea and mushroom pie (fresh from the oven and still piping hot) I perused the menu but nothing I fell in love with was take-away friendly. I opted for a Belgian waffle from a little place down the road instead. The food had to enjoyed within the confines of the office, but I popped it into the lightbox before we dug in :) You can see those right at the bottom of the post. For uninitiated vegan-food consumers, Ru and Lee were very happy with their delicious meals!

Vegetarian patty with beans, chickpea, spinach. A very tasty sauce with hummus and salad on artisan bread. “Best burger I ever had” – Ru
