The Palm Tree in Cane End removed from guide
After a most discouraging conversation with the new managment (Nov 2011) we have regretably removed the Palm Tree from our guide. Maybe its previous repuatition as an welcoming venue for veggies and vegans will encourage them to reconsider their menu.
However, we have the pleasure of adding new Indian restaurant Mamoni to our listings on the north side of Reading.

Thames Valley Veggies bulk buying group
Now written up on the Suma website, is the Thames Valley Veggies food group. Suma deliveries mean we can get more variety and save money. So many of our favourite products are hard to get, particularly the full Redwood’s and Fry’s ranges, as well as the yummy Sojade yoghurts. If you’re a vegan family that eats a lot of breakfast, you go through crates of soya milk.
We then shop at local independent and organic places, like the True Food Co-op and Garlands, as well as Tolhurst vegan farming veg box scheme, for all our fresh fruit and veg needs, as well as for tasty treats like Vesna's gorgeous cakes.
