This initiative is a joint collaboration between The Federation of Indian Animal Protection Organisations (FIAPO) and Epicuria to create the first vegan-friendly hub in the capital which caters to people with different dietary preferences. While other cities like Pune and Bangalore are already bursting with vegan restaurants, Delhi has less than a handful of vegan-friendly eateries.
Although most chefs have the ability to easily customise vegetarian dishes to suit a plant-based diet, the lack of options in the city hinders the transition of many who are willing to adopt a vegan lifestyle.
There are a lot of people who want to try veganism, be it for health-related reasons, animals or the environment, and this collaboration between Epicuria and FIAPO is a huge step towards that goal. Since it is a one-of-its-kind concept in India, the vegan-friendly move by the management is a big move to set the standard of food and lifestyle in the city.
