March 23, 2018

Wander Women Groningen, FLFL, falafel, vegan

Groningen has so much to offer. Not only culture, beautiful buildings, canals and parks. It also has a great food scene, even for the vegan people amongst us. 1 of our favourite streetfood snacks is falafel. Back in the day you could go to Maoz in Groningen, but unfortunately that chain has left our city quite a few years ago already. So, is it mission impossible to find good falafel in Groningen? Rest assured, it’s not! In this article we share the 3 falafel places we love going to.

Lunch Marsala Sicily 2017, Wander Women

Italy is famous for its delicious food, isn’t it? Tasty pizza, ribollita in Tuscany, a mouth watering dinner in Colonella at one of our favourite restaurants and vegan pumpkin ravioli in Perugia. In October 2017 my mom and I spent a few days in Sicily and of course I was hoping for a similar experience as the years before.

October 19, 2017

BlaBla Groningen (picture copyright BlaBla, used with permission), Wander Women Blogazine

BlaBla is a 100% vegetarian restaurant, located in the Hortusbuurt in Groningen. There also a location in Rotterdam. They offer 3 main courses (each main course contains 5 different parts, inspired by a country) and their menu changes every few weeks. The starters and desserts mostly stay the same though. Eating vegan is no problem at BlaBla so these 2 Wander Women like to have dinner at BlaBla a lot. They have made a conscious decision not to use meat substitutes.

Why? Creative vegetarian and vegan food. The mushroom empandas and nuts “meat”loaf balls are a must try!

Info: BlaBla Groningen, Nieuwe Boteringestraat 9, Groningen

Bij Britta, in Groningen
October 16, 2017

Bij Britta Groningen - Wander Women blogazine

The best pie in Groningen? If you ask around, most people will probably say: “At Bij Britta of course!”. Barbara does all the pie baking. You get to choose from 6 to 8 different ones each day and she also bakes vegan pies! All of the pies are suitable for vegetarians (no use of gelatin). You don’t like pie? No worries: they also offer sandwiches (as a vegan option available) and grilled cheese sandwiches. Anne (Barbaras husband) knows how to prepare a spicy chai latte, made of real tea (instead of using powder). Besides chai tea, they offer lemonades, smoothies, coffee and tea (lots and lots of different flavours, which you can also buy to take home). Bij Britta is a cosy place in the center of Groningen, run by a welcoming couple. A little note: Anne takes his time to prepare your drinks to perfection, so if you are in a rush Bij Britta is not the place to go.

Why? Their carrot cake is a must try, the best we’ve ever tasted until now. And Barbara’s Mississippi Mud Pie is legendary and perfect for chocolate lovers. And that spicy chai latte, of course…

Info: Bij Britta, Oude Kijk in ‘t Jatstraat 27, Groningen
