I read about this little restaurant on Chester City Walls a while ago. A vegan restaurant focussed on sustainability and local ingredients, it piqued my interest immediately even as a meat eater.

Finally, yes finally we got to leave the house and eat! After a wander around Chester City Centre with the dogs I left them and my husband on a bench and wandered into the Chester Market Hall. I’d heard good things about a taco joint hidden at the back….. I found it and luckily got…
