So i told you about the dinner i had,now i decide to come in and have lunch the following day.You have a choice of doing sit-in or take-away buffet lunch.Choices which change daily like ,brown rice,creamy chickpeas,carrot lasagna,carrot tart,veggie stir fry,are some.That what i had for my first plate.my second plate was a mixed bean salad,black eye peas,kidney beans,green lentils,herbs,and shredded carrots was great.Creamy coleslaw with cashew dressing,whole wheat spaghetti tossed in herbs an d a bit of olive oil served cold and a nice mixed green salad finished me off.While i'm eating i meet a young gentleman named Nick from NY now living here with his american girlfriend tells me about the place and how he loves it here and can't stop eating here.Once a meat eater and being overweight he decided to change his diet.So he went completely vegan and says he's in the best shape of his life and also being a triathlete gave him more energy and says he'll never go back to eating meat.I'm quite convinced myself,you can make great tasting dishes and not need the meat,eggs,dairy etc.On my last night i stop by right before the restaurant closes to get a picture and to have a quick chat with him.He too says there's no need for meat and that we must eat more veggies,but just need to educate ourselves.We discuss food,politics and the future of 222.Possibly another location specializing in just take-away.But for now he focuses on just making great food and satisfying his customers.Ben is a humble guy just loving what he does.Other services include catering for parties and a knowledgeable staff about,nut allergies,dietary requirements.They are also a member of The Vegetarian Society and The Vegan Society.Always here and cooking with a full kitchen staff to assist him, makes time to come out to say hello and shake your hand.So support 222,for you will definitely enjoy!
