Paddington's Old Monk brings modern Indian cuisine with quite a lot of options for vegans, which are clearly marked 'VG'. Start with the incredibly flavourful katori chaat (request the vegan version) – a crispy fried potato basket filled with spiced chickpeas, vegan yoghurt, and chutney. For mains, share a few curries. The vegan butter chicken is a highlight for me, pairing perfectly with tandoori roti or saffron rice. However, there aren't any options for vegan dessert at the time of visit.
