"The mega popular vegan Chinese spot has a few locations (including Spitalfields and Golders Green) but we most often find ourselves in their original Angel restaurant. While their soup dumplings are good, if a little thick, Tofu Vegan’s wontons in house special sauce are the must-order dim sum item. Thin wrappers are packed with tofu, mushrooms, and water chestnuts, and the sauce—a neon red chilli concoction—is fizzing and completely gluggable." - jake missing, heidi lauth beasley, rianne shlebak
"Tofu Vegan is a Chinese spot on Upper Street that’s heaving seven days a week, as everyone tucks into housemade silken tofu in Sichuan sauce, mock meats like Chongqing chicken, and dim sum like tofu and mushroom xiao long bao. The space is big, so much so that it spills out onto the pavement, much like the sizzling fragrant sauce that will likely fall from your greedy spoonfuls." - jake missing, sinead cranna
"You might think that taking your dog to a vegan restaurant will make you their least favourite parent. But at Tofu Vegan, you can get some delicious housemade silken tofu in Sichuan sauce, mock meats like Chongqing chicken, dim sum, and more plant-based dishes that may surprise you—and your dog-child—with how impressive they are. It’s a big-ish space, with tables spilling out onto the pavement, and it’s an excellent option when you’re around the Angel end of Upper Street." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna
