A Vegan And Gluten Free Guide To Eating In Leipzig With A Handy Things To Do Travel Tips

I arrived into Leipzig on the fast (70 min) ICE train from Berlin.  The fare was not cheap (costs between €29-40) and I could have taken the more leisurely 2 hour, €8 bus, but I was impatient to get here.  My first view of the city was the fun yellow and blue trams zipping in and out of the zone in front of the station.  

Leipzig is another town hailed as the 'new Berlin', I heard that about Budapest (I visited recently) as well, but seriously, no where can be the new Berlin. Berlin is Berlin, Budapest is cool and very inexpensive and Leipzig has a charm all of it's own.  My curiosity, and my obsession with getting to grips with places that have a large vegan following (though that is becoming less and less unique..I am happy to say), were the driving forces behind my visit. I'll give you a bit of background first and then we will delve a bit deeper and show you want you want to know...what I did I eat?.

The city of Leipzig borders a lush riparian forest, a forest which lies adjacent to a river, with towering trees. The Elster Saale canal runs alongside too. It is beautiful and surprisingly you can feel like some of the paths are leading you to the depths of nowhere, but the city is never that far away.  Leipzigers really enjoy this area, and a canoe or two are always gliding through the shaded waters. I did not do that, but I did have lovely bike lent to me and I took the bone shaking cobbled street from my apartment, through the beautifully landscaped Clara Zetkin Park for a bit of red squirrel and nordic walkers spotting, to the forest everyday for some 'green time'.  I also biked to the Cospudener See, a large picturesque lake south of the city with white sandy beaches, where clothing is optional, or just biked along the canals that weave through the city.  I could not help but note whilst exploring Leipzig, just how clean it is. No litter droppers here!

Whilst the zentrum (centre) is glitzy, several high class shopping malls with designer shops and expensive restaurants I enjoyed the more alternative, artsy areas of Connewitz, Plagwitz and Sudvorstadt.  

My advice upon arrival is to get a map of the city.  I carry my iPad or iPhone around with me so I download Maps With Me for a detailed, offline  city map.  I've since discovered GPS My City which also includes walking tours of the city with points of interest. When I am out, I always pop into the tourist information or a hostel and pick up a paper map of the city to carry around too.

Plagwitz was the destination of my first venture out.

The converted industrial building housing WestWerk II a cultural music and arts venue on Karl Heine Strasse.  

My first vegan stop on Karl Heine Strasse but, oh no, Vleischerei was closed when I cycled up to it but I'd eaten at their Berlin cafe so I dined on the memory instead!  

A fellow Australian blogger and a Leipzig local accompanied me to S Kultur.  Located on a quiet street just north of Plagwitz.  It was a first time for all of us.

Vegan 'meat' was the show stopper here.  A bit more upscale than some of the vegan junk food eateries I'd been visiting.  We though we would see what this newcomer to the scene had up its sleeve.  We were surprised to discover the owners are actually Dutch.  The wife of the husband and wife team served us.  She was very friendly (English speaking...always helps) the service outstanding and food as fresh as it comes.  I ordered the gluten free sweet potato curry with vegan 'chicken'.  I admit I poked at the 'meat' suspiciously like a child.  I had to ask three times to just check it wasn't actual chicken.  I do not know what they do to make the plant based protein 'meat' look and taste like it does but the owners import this stuff from Holland and I'm telling you it is just like chicken.  Actually, though I ate it I was not at ease with it.  I loved the curry though.  Very flavoursome.

Miss Leipzig had the tagiettle with 'chicken'.  She was gushing about it and she doesn't usually like fake meats.

T'other friend, Mrs Australia ordered the satay.  Again, a hit.

I enquired about their 'meat' supplier and was shown press cuttings  about the vegan butcher in Holland.

The Vegetarian Butcher

The Vegetarian Butcher is the idea of Jaap Korteweg. Jaap Korteweg is an 8th generation farmer, who is dedicated to redefine the food industry with the Vegetarian Revolution together with concept creator and senator Niko Koffeman, chef de cuisine Paul Bom and a dedicated team. They found each other in the thought that vegetable meat substitutes should be of a spectacular structure, bite and taste. Their ideal is to show real meat lovers that they don’t miss a thing when they reduce their meat consumption. Their ambition is to become the biggest butcher in the world, on short notice.

I guess it won't be long then before everyone will have a vegan butcher in their high street.  Now that is a concept!

Too many to list.  Leipzigs restaurants, bars and cafes are embracing the vegan scene wholeheartedly and many have vegan options.  The Connewitz neighbourhood and the arterial road that runs through it Wolfgang Heinz Strasse is awash with vegan eateries.  Deli, is a cute little vegan hipster bistro burger joint.  Sadly, I did not get chance to eat here. Their burgers are not gluten free but they have delicious looking fries with lots of sides and sauces and dips you could make a meal out of.  Word is that they serve very tasty food. 

La Cygne is a convenience store come coffee shop in Connewitz.  Open late and always buzzing with a crowd.

Cakes, cookies and bakes by Vegan Lonestar. No gluten free yet.  For sale at La Cygne

Symbiose has only been open for a couple of months.  

The menu is in German (well, I am in Germany) so I used a new app I had heard of called World Lens.  You hold up your device to the thing you want to understand and the words get translated to your desired language. I had varying degrees of success with it, not perfect but fun.  Crazy what can be done these days!

The ethos of Symbiose is to use local produce whenever possible.  They source their vegetables from an urban farm on the outskirts of Leipzig.  Of course vegetables grow seasonally so the menu is determined by what is growing.  I thought the dishes on offer were quite inventive.  I could not resist the roasted squash with a spicy chocolate sauce. Not quite mole but the sweetness of the squash was perfectly offset by the accompanying vinaigrette, dressed salad.  I'm a sucker for roasted aubergine, I love it's silkiness so I ordered a side of that too.  The dish was absolutely delicious. The photo here does not do it justice, and you cannot see how the squash cubes were charmingly stacked in a wall.  It is said we eat with our eyes, well we do and our tastebuds too. I loved it.

Dessert was a chocolate mousse with berry coulis. There were other choices but this was the only gluten free offering.  It was a perfectly good mousse.

Curry Sud is a fast food joint where you can get a quick, vegan junk food fix.

Connewitz is also home to a 100% vegan store.

Vegan Leben is owned by Thammi, a sweet and welcomingLeipzig native who travelled the world and came back to settle and open up a shop.  It is a relatively small space but you can get almost anything you need here.  They have a gluten free section, foods in the chiller, grains, drinks, pet food, toiletries and house hold products.  They also have organic vegetables supplied by an urban farm on the edge of Leipzig, who deliver once a week.  You can order products online.  Their website has great list of all cafes, bars, pubs and restaurants in Leipzig that serve vegan dishes. Not all of the places are vegan but I was surprised just how many places have a vegan option.

Vegan 'meats' are very popular in Leipzig.

The store was also selling a local guide book that has a genius scheme.  Now in its third year, Vegan Genieszen set a target to get a vegan option available all over the city. You buy a book containing vouchers and listings of the participants. Both vegan and non vegan restaurants offer a free vegan dish with one of the vouchers contained in the €10 book. Great idea. A win on so many levels.

Now for some record breakers.  Leipzig has the worlds largest panoramic work of art. The Asisi Panometer.  The panoramic scene inside this huge building changes periodically.  It is slightly out of the hub of Connewitz, I was looking forward to gaping at it in wonder.
HOWEVER, it is closed on Monday.  Do your research people, and don't be like me.  I only got to see it from the outside.  But as you can see from the photograph I was not the only one to show up when it was closed (comfort in numbers)!

This is one of Europe's tallest monuments. The Battle of the Nations. Völkerschlachtdenkmal
It is a huge monument to the three day war in 1813 by allied Austrian, Prussian, Russian and Swedish forces against Napoleon to bring down the last remaining French power in Germany. It reminded me so much of a Mayan temple from Mexico.  HUGE and also rising out of a forest.  Also just a mile or so from Connewitz.

Back to talk of food, all that history is making me hungry. 
Black Label is one of several places to eat vegan in Connewitz district.  It is also one of two  pubs that serve Atacoclypse Mexican Food.  Black Label has a food truck in their beer garden.

On my last evening a few new friends met me to eat at a bar in Connewitz.  Bill Hard and Black Label are two dive bars that showcase vegan food from Atacoclypse.  Black Label has their food truck inside its pub garden but Bill's had tamales and I wanted tamales!

The dark interior dims the photo's somewhat but if you can make the photo's out, despite it being 'pub' food, it was thoughtfully plated.  Two friends opted for the seitan (a type of vegan wheat meat) satay, another had quesadillas (I forgot to snap that) and I had the tamales filled with jalapeños and vegan cheese.  We also demolished the largest basket of freshly made crisp and oily nachos I've ever come across.  The seitan satay and quesadillas where a definite hit with my dining companions.  The tamales..honestly, they were nice but I have made better myself.  Tamale recipe here. An app, if you want to make your own vegan 'meat' How To Make Seitan here. 

 I will rate it on our combined overall experience.

Zest is a high class, destination vegan bistro also in Connewitz.  It was rather spendy and with so much to see I decided it was for another time.


One of the Leipzig's famous Michael Fischer murals.

St Nicholas church has quite a history. Wagner was baptised here, Mozart played the organ here, Mendelssohn passed under its roof and Bach was Director Of Music, back in the 18th  century.  And now I was here!

I also took the opportunity whilst in this part of Germany to tick off an item on my Bucket List.  I look a train to Dessau, just 40 mins out of Leipzig.  Bauhaus.  One of the worlds first design schools and a powerhouse of creative ideas, built in 1926. Wow, it was strange to be there. I've been to many exhibitions around the world and seen little paper architect models, photos and postcards showing the building where Modernism all began. And there I was standing in front of it.  It was both awe inspiring and underwhelming at the same time.  Like, 'wow it's the Bauhaus building' and 'yeah, it's just a building'.  Ah, the dualistic human mind.

It was fascinating though.  The light flooding inside the building and the intricate and well thought out detailing of the opening windows, right down to the simple, stylish chrome door handles.  Though I may not agree with founder Walter Gropius and his contemporaries, Corbusier and Van der Rohe utopian notions of the apartment block living, (brought home even more to me when cycling to the lakes around Leipzig and cycling though mountains of concrete), I do absolutely love their designs of single dwelling homes and their light filled simplicity.  It is still strange to me how a building style dreamed up in the 1930's can look so futuristic when executed today.  It guess it goes to show just how long it takes for us to adopt new ideas.  Ikea thrives because of the birth of Modernism.

Other Must Dos in Leipzig and a little compilation of facts, if you are interested to know more.

History records 7th Century Slavs as the first settlers.  There has been a University here since 1409.  Here was printed the worlds first ever newspaper in 1650.
The arts - Bach, Goethe, Mendelssohn and Wagner.  Much of the city was reduced to rubble in 1943 during World War II.  The Monday (peaceful) demonstrations that took place here in 1989 led to the downfall of the communist government in East Germany. The World Cup was here in 2006.  Leipzig is host to the worlds largest annual Goth's festival?!

Schiller House - Friederick Schiller wrote Ode To Joy in Leipzig. His house is open to the public but I'm darned if I could find it!  
Michael Fischer's richly coloured, cartoon like murals.

NaTo - Kino and theatre
Opera - if you want to enjoy some opera, Leipzig has that too. It is the third oldest opera house in Europe.
Baumwolls Spinnerei - Art community in a converted cotton factory

Besides Happy Cow there are a few vegan bloggers.  Leipzig Vegan (German Language) is one and Deutschland Is Vegan is another beside of course A Vegan Obsession

And finally, if you are visiting at Christmas then Sudvorstadt has the Feinkost Termine - vegan weihnacht markt (vegan christmas market).

Enjoy!

A Gluten Free and Vegan Guide To Budapest With Advice On Things To Do

Finally, I found myself in Budapest.  Well, I did not just find myself there I went there.  On purpose.  I have heard so much about it.  Lashings of adjectives like beautiful, romantic attached themselves to travellers summations of the spirit of Budapest.  But truth be told, it was reading my friend and fellow blogger Nicole of Vegan Nom Noms account of Budapest and who was gushing about the vegan food there and posting photos to tempt me, that was the tipping point.

Upon arrival I immediately noted the low cost of food, essentials, travel and entertainment.  I could not help but get a sense of freedom of not having to count every penny.  In contrast to say..Paris where hanging out in a cafe can be something you need to add to your budget as a costly excursion.  I took to sitting on walls with a bottle of water to people watch!  No need to do that in Budapest, it is a very affordable city. Budapest is a very walkable city, though it is fairly easy to get around with the metro, tram or bus covering most parts of the city, but I mostly walked.  All the main attractions are in a small area.  Nothing took more than an hour to reach on foot from my base up near the foreign embassies.  It is a good idea to go on one of the free walking tours to orient yourself and get a little background culture. The guides are also great at advising on the 'must do' activities and sites whilst you are visiting.  

Upon setting foot in the city I quickly familiarised myself with a few basic words.  Not easy though.  To say both hello and goodbye Hungarians say szia, pronounced seeya.  They also say 'hello' when bidding someone goodbye?! If you can get your head around the pronunciations of their 44 letters of the dictionary (for instance who'd a thought that the character dzs (not a typo) was pronounced like the English G?! ),  you are halfway there.  I wish I planned that far ahead.  I usually end up learning when I am in the thick of it.

When I go to a new city, I have no idea why, but their style of telephone box, metro signage, cab colour (all yellow by law) and post box somehow sum up and fix in my mind part of their culture. Yes, question that, I do!

I always enjoy seeking out the local street markets.  I bought a bunch of parsley, bound carefully with twine from this beautiful lady.  I was so taken with her gentle features that I enquired if the young girl next to me spoke English. She replied that she did so I asked her to translate, 'you are so beautiful, please may I take your picture'.  The lady smiled so sweetly and nodded humbly.  This is one of several I captured of her.  She is like the generic kindly woman in a children's storybook!  I wanted her to adopt me!

I spotted this.  It struck me as something I wanted to tell you about. What a genius and eco friendly idea.  Herbs and spices in simple paper bags.

Bio ABC was one of several well stocked organic stores in the city.  They had many gluten free and vegan  products.  A good range of organic vegetables.  Bulk bins.  A cake counter with traditional desserts and even some vegan and raw treats.

Bio Abc was one of a few places in the city where you can buy raw products by Elet Konyha ( Life Kitchen).  They provide raw vegan catering and host the most amazing pop up events.  

The buckwheat carob cup biscuits where so morish!  If I go back to Budapest this is the food item I will track down first!  I wish they shipped to the UK!!  Then I will book a table at their pop up restaurant. Bucket list.

One of the numerous Hummus Bar restaurants dotted around the city.  You are never far from your next bowl of pureed bean and tahini!  I had a topping (they have a host of toppings to choose from) of fried aubergine and carrot salad. I also opted for the fava bean instead of the ubiquitous chickpea hummus. So filling and utterly delicious.  Something about consuming hummus for me is so very grounding. Yum.

 
I only had one week in the city.  I did not get to try everything vegan that is on offer.  Vega City (it was Le Bar..and has now moved to larger premises just a few steps from its first incarnation) was one of those I missed this time. A friend told me the food there was good.  Served canteen style with some traditional Hungarian dishes. Smoothies, juices and desserts.  It can be a bit hit and miss, depending on the time of day you arrive as to the range of choice available.

The fisherman's bastion is a must see on the Buda side. So called as an honour to the guild of fishermen who defended this stretch of the city walls in the Middle Ages.

Az Elet Etterme (once called Mannatural) meaning restaurant of life. A raw food restaurant that should be a torch light to all others in its affordability.  £5 for a large plate of delicious raw food?!  The sample plate was as suggests a bit of everything; raw crackers, 'sour cream', pickles, salads, and sprouted quinoa.  Lovely.  Olivia the server was a bubble of energy, so friendly and her English was impeccable.

\

I opted for the raw lavender and apple cake, oh, and that little coconut energy ball.  The topping of the cake was lovely but the addition of the physilium husks in the base was a little too evident.  I left my plate clean though.  

Napfenyes Etterem (sunshine restaurant) is located on a quiet street just North of the Jewish district.  You walk downstairs into an underground space.  I expect it would feel really cozy on a wintery day.  The food is Hungarian inspired.  The menu is set everyday and listed on their website. One or two gluten free options appear most days.  I opted for the goulash and a selection from the cold salad bar. The food was comforting and flavoursome though a bit oily.  Most of the staff were friendly and one spoke good English. As with many of the restaurants they had an English menu you could order from.

Did you know a Hungarian invented the Rubik's cube?  I never did master it. Perhaps I will in my dotage, if I sit down for long enough!  AND the biro. Yup, invented by a Hungarian.

Budapest has become quite famous for its Ruin Pubs.  Basically run down (some even have no roof) buildings in the Jewish district that have been turned into pubs and cafes.  Heatlh and Safety would never allow it in the UK!  At the weekends the Szimpla Ruin Pub houses cute and friendly little farmers market.  A great place to while away a few hours people watching and listening to the laid back sounds of the live music.

Dynamo Bake is a cute and friendly little cafe just off of the busy Muzeum Konut road .  It is a bike rental shop coupled with a bake shop.  The owner, Bea (pronounced like bear) returned from a time living in Portugal where she had grown accustomed to the Portuguese way and missed eating baked treats and pastries for breakfast.  She is singlehandedly attempting to bring the Hungarians around to her way of thinking.  Bea opened Dymano Bake once she decided to merge her two passions of biking and pastries. 
She had a small selection of vegan offerings.  I was excited to find a gluten free and vegan black bean brownie (this is my recipe from way back for fudgy black bean brownies).  The one I ate at Dynamo Bake had a crumblier consistency and a thick chocolate shell.  It was not overly sweet and her pastry school credentials shone through.  I was very happy, sipping my tea, nibbling on my brownie and enjoying the peaceful space.

Research also uncovered an ice cream parlour that was offering a selection of dairy, egg and gluten free ice cream.  Levendula (lavender) has two locations in Budapest.  I went along to the one on the Pest side which is located on the fringe of a large shopping centre.  I had a scoop of the red berry, coupled with the dark chocolate and chilli.  They even had gluten free cones.  I got very messy with it (very hot day) and looked like a (happy) chocolate covered toddler by the end of it. Delicious.

I did not get to try Atma Buda (yoga centre with vegetarian cafe) but it has good reviews on Happy Cow.

Mid week I heard about a salt cave underneath a juice bar (Zold Turmix..green smoothie) in Pest.  I had to go and experience that.  It is a natural treatment said to treat respiratory and skin conditions, used to treat since ancient Greeks saw the benefits of the anti microbial action of salt. There was only two of us in there.  It was a strange air and when you breathed you got a slight sensation up your nose similar to when you get water up your nose.  It was very relaxing being down in the cave and the music they fed in in the hour I lay in my reclining massage chair was very chilled. Chilled as in relaxing. Not chilled as in cold.

Edes Elet Cukraszda (vegan cake shop and candy store) is not far from the bridge that crosses the danube and also takes you to Margaret Island (a small island where joggers, beach bums, tourists and locals escape the city for a bit of green space).  There are three vegan eateries in this small area.  So visit hungry! It is totally vegan and has lots of cakes, bakes and slices on display.  Sadly, they did not have any gluten free cakes on the day I visited.  I was reliably informed by a fellow traveler that they were super tasty.

I found this hipster coffee shop, Madal Cafe just on the next street.  They had some raw treats so I ordered a specialist green tea to go with a sweet macha morsel, took and seat and watched people come and go.  It was a popular spot.

The spas with medicinal waters are very popular in Budapest.  The Turkish occupation of the city in the 16th century saw many spas to enjoy the thermal waters. Whilst the Hungarians  then built several spas of their own, a few of the original Turkish bathing houses remain.  I choose to visit a lesser known and the oldest in the city Veli Bej (and therefore far quieter) spa which has a hospital built around it.  I bathed in the 38 degree waters, had a blissful massage, sweated and steamed many times in the infra red sauna and the steam room.  Throwing handfuls of ice on my body in between the two. A total of 3 hours and I emerged the cleanest person in Budapest, and the most chilled.   Recently refurbished to a very high standard it was total luxury. Bliss for around £20! 

A cute house.  One of many photos of buildings I took.  I will share one.  

Edeni.  A totally vegan, canteen style eatery situated in a buzzing intersection of restaurants on the hilly Buda side.  Inexpensive and simple food.  My Mexican chilli was very good.  My eating companions declared their choices were tasty too. They had authentic gylash (it is often thought, incorrectly, that goulash is their national dish but it is not, theirs is a soup style medley of ingredients, with a different spelling).  Lots of gluten free choices for dessert. The double decker style of cake popular in many of the vegan places I visited, was tasty and surprisingly light..not so for my friends chocolate torte, which though rich and delicious, had them beat!

Crazy Fruits. A fast food vegan smoothie and raw food and wrap cafe.  Sadly it was closed for the day when I visited.

Mid way through my stay I decided to get out of the city and see what the Hungarian landscape looks like free of concrete, brick and steel.  Under an hour, the train skirted the Danube and stopped at Visegrad a small town beside the Danube in an area dubbed by the locals The Bend.   The nearby quaint villages are popular with tourists but I wanted to visit the lush green vistas I'd seen in my Google searches.  There is a castle built after the Mongol invasion in 1240 to protect royalty against invaders atop a hill.  I had to take a little ferry boat that runs once an hour to the other side of the river and then climb up, quickly as the rumbling thunder was growing more threatening by the minute.

The climb was worth it. Ah, how serene.

I visited the Hungarian Ethnographic museum situated opposite the Parliament Building.  It had a fascinating exhibition with real sized examples of traditional Hungarian homes, churches, places of work.  Costumes and pottery.  One of the staff members is a keen photographer and had put together a fascinating collection of people in rural Hungary and their homes, surprisingly they live like this today! Basic needs are met and need none of our modern day frippery. 

The cool white stone of the Parliament Building.

The Shoes, honour the Jews killed by fascist militia in Budapest during World War II.  They were ordered to remove their shoes prior to being shot at the edge of the water.  The river consumed their bodies and carried them away.  The memorial was conceived by a Hungarian film director in honour of those who lost their lives.

Peas & Love is a little cafe recently opened by Rebeca, a young Romanian foodie who wanted to offer a more healthy and affordable (some might say it is all affordable) option of plant based food in the city.  The owner is super friendly and speaks English.

I chose a small selection of their salads to go with my beet burger.  Which I have to say was awesome.  So tasty and substantial!

She even has launched her own range of vegan supplements!

Balamber cafe is located in the area west of the Royal Palace, down a zig zag of steps.  It's cutesy interior is bright and welcoming.  Owned by two friends, Rita & Panni, with no previous restaurant experience just a strong passion for healthy and delicious plant based food.  The menu is mostly vegan.  Two plates are on offer each day.  I chose a raw zucchini and tomato salad with sweetcorn fritters.  You do need to ask which is gluten free and vegan if that is your bag, too.

Delicious 'three bite' chocolate cheesecake.  It was lovely. I wish all places had smaller offerings so you can indulge freely.

A scene in one of the lovely parks.

I climbed up Gellert Hill to reach the Freedom Statue.  If you are not feeling so energetic you can take the 19th century Funicular Railway to the top of Castle Hill and then walk over.

View!

I loved my time in Budapest.  The Hungarian Forint can buy you a nice lifestyle  I would definitely hope to return one day and also explore more of Hungary.  If you are vegan or vegetarian you will be well catered for!  I wished I'd gotten around to trying all of the ones featured on Happy Cow.  Being gluten free does sometimes hinder my tasting adventures.  There is a totally gluten free restaurant that I will check out when I return.  It is not vegan but they cater for vegans.  If you go then give Koles a try.

Aside from the obligatory Happy Cow as reference I also got lots of information about Budapest from We Love Budapest  Budaveg Budapest By Locals Hipster Hostel and Indefinite Adventure
