Avoid the common mistakes

• Assuming every healthy café is fully vegan. Check the menu labels carefully because a healthy or vegetarian café may still use dairy, eggs, honey or non-vegan sauces.
• Choosing a tasting menu for a quick lunch. Choose tasting menus for a planned occasion and quicker cafés or casual kitchens for a short lunch or shopping break.
• Forgetting to check allergens and hidden dairy. Tell the restaurant about allergies separately from vegan preferences and confirm hidden dairy, nuts, gluten and shared preparation areas.
