TEMAKI

Anyone who knows me well knows I'm pretty relaxed with my veganism. However, after two years of living in Glasgow, I now have an excuse to drag a unlucky few to the best that the city has to offer for us vegans... a marketing assignment, hooray!

The first stop on this belated vegan food tour was Temaki, a small Japanese restaurant in the heart of the city centre. I've walked past so many times with the intention of trying it out, so on a rainy Wednesday night myself and Lauren finally paid them a visit. 

As two very indecisive individuals, we were overwhelmed by their class menu - so much variety and plenty veggie/vegan options. A match made in heaven for vegan and non-vegan friendships. Once the painful process of deciding was over, we didn't have to wait long for our delicious food to arrive.

Move over Yo-Sushi - Lauren’s go-to restaurant…

"WOW" *chef kiss* was her immediate reaction to one bite of her chicken katsu.

I ordered their avocado maki and tofu teriyaki k-cup initially, which were both so good.  The k-cup had a LOT of rice in it, however, as post-hockey match hungry was at its peak this wasn’t really too big of an issue. After demolishing all this, I got their agedashi tofu, which for being just crispy tofu was pretty damn good. 

If you're a Japanese food lover like us, then I'd 100% recommend. Fresh and fast food, what more could you ask for? Boasting a cool, intimate vibe and serving very tasty, reasonably priced food (thank you student discount), this certainly won't be our last visit to this hidden gem on Hope Street. 

So if you've made it this far, thanks! Till next week folks :)
