See! We and Prince of Persia really DO share the same tablecloth! PS if there’s one advice I can give for making perfect pancakes, it is using a non-stick crepe maker. THIS one in specific. It has been and continues to be, my most prized possession – after the yellow rose Soroosh gave me on our first date. image-5

The Origin (95 Westminster Street) is a new entirely vegan CHCH eatery. And, it is hands-down, nothing short of amazing! The food and the coffee, oh my. You’ve been warned. I can’t wait to go again. In fact, I’m gonna go today. image-6

Oopsie. Must use bigger oven. Of course, my mother told me off for this. I did not try to argue that it was her who suggested and by suggested I mean forced me to use the toaster oven for my baking experiments in hope of using less electricity in the first place.

Combine the following in a large mixing bowl, 3 free-range eggs, 1/4 cup runny honey, 1/2 cup natural yoghurt, 1/4 cup olive oil, 1 ripe banana, 1 tsp apple cider vinegar. Mix well, then gently sift in 1 cup buckwheat flour, 1 cup almond meal, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/2 tsp cardamom, 1 tsp baking soda, a large handful of chopped walnuts and 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries, then mix thoroughly. Drop the mixture in to 12 greased muffin tins. Bake at 180 C for about 15 minutes or, until an inserted fork inserted comes out clean. Yummy yummy.

  1. Your recipe sounds exquisite! I don’t think anyone can make it any better; that’s the be-all, end-all recipe. Thanks for the new photos. Look how Oz is growing so quickly! He’s even got a moustache, now!

  2. Wow, all of this looks delicious! What do they use for the coffee? The latte art looks great for vegan coffee. Is it simply just soy? Great article, do you feature your writing with any other sites at all?

    1. Hey Mike! This cafe offers soy, rice, almond and coconut milk. Pictured is almond milk. I too was impressed by their latte art! At the moment, I write 2 articles a month for Savvy Tokyo (I used to be an English teacher in Japan) but other than that, no. So if you have any suggestions.. hehe
