@thelittlelondonvegan Move aside, Dishoom. We now have a fully veggie Indian breakfast & brunch spot 🇮🇳 ad The HUGE menu by @omnomrestaurant x @namastevillage includes “sausage” & “bacon” naans, hash brown chaat, masala french toast & “chicken” butter masala 🥘 There’s a mix of traditional South Indian dishes, British-Indian fusion dishes, some classic brunch dishes like avocado toast, brunch specials including curries, dosas, pow bhajis and biryani as well as Gujurati small plates 🇮🇳 💭Finally - more interesting vegan breakfast options in London! The team have been working on this for a while. They first asked me for feedback on this concept in 2023 and they’ve been refining it ever since! I still had some feedback on some of the dishes (I suggested different sausage and bacon brands, a need for more moisture in the tofu bhurji pav as well as a couple of other things), but overall, this is an extensive menu with some creative, flavour-packed dishes. I like that there’s a mix of traditional dishes and fusion dishes and a good balance between healthy and indulgent. I’d recommend ordering a range of dishes across different sections of the menu! 🏆 My favourites were the hash brown chaat - honestly it’s very rare for chaat not to be my favourite dish on a menu - I love the mixture of textures and flavours. I also really enjoyed the masala French toast with masala beans and the khaman dhokla savoury sponge cake with chutneys. I mainly tried the breakfast menu but have had some of the brunch dishes before and loved them - especially the “chicken” butter masala, pav bhaji & gunpowder aloo. ⏰ Breakfast is served from open, brunch is served from 11am 🍽Name: OmNom x Namaste Village 📍Location: Angel, Islington 🌾Gluten Free Options? Yes 🌱100% Vegan Business? No - vegetarian 🍽 Cuisine: Indian 📦Leftovers: Took some home and ate it that evening, staff had some too 🌍Sustainability: They use recyclable packing and tackle food waste by working with surplus charities 👨🍳 Owners are Indian ♿️ Wheelchair friendly: Yes 🐶 Dog friendly: Yes #vegans #veganfood #whatveganseat #plantbasedfood #plantbased #ukvegans #londonvegans #veganlondon #londonvegans #londonrestaurants #omnom #namastevillage #veganindianfood ♬ Almost forgot that this was the whole point - Take my Hand Instrumental - AntonioVivald

Choosing between London influencers
London has no shortage of influencers – the selection above is just a taste of what’s on offer. But who should you choose for your brand? As outlined in our guide to the different types of influencers, there are four main categories:
Nano influencers: 1k-10k followers
Micro influencers: 10k-100k followers
Macro influencers: 100k-1m followers
Mega influencers: Over 1m followers
Follower count matters, of course, but it’s not the only factor. Needless to say, all of these have more followers than your average person. However, nano, micro and macro influencers often have a more concentrated following than their mega influencer counterparts.
These types of influencers have often built up a community based around a particular niche, region or both. As an example, a mega influencer might have 4m followers from across the country because they’re universally well known for TV. However, a micro influencer could have 200k followers around London who are mostly interested in health and fitness. Which is better for a new gym in Hammersmith?
By choosing local influencers, you can tap into a specialist audience that’s relevant to your brand. That’s great for local businesses that need to increase footfall, or national brands that want to improve exposure in a particular region.
