The idea behind The Meet was to offer indulgent plant-based comfort food with the same taste and texture of meat to create similar friendly alternatives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/healthylivinglondon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/TheMeet_Clapham_04.jpg\" alt=\"The Meet vegan pop up Clapham review\" class=\"wp-image-9095\" srcset=\"https:\/\/healthylivinglondon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/TheMeet_Clapham_04.jpg 750w, https:\/\/healthylivinglondon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/TheMeet_Clapham_04-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><figcaption>The vegan pop-up in Clapham<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m not a vegan or vegetarian convert yet but always liked the idea and really enjoy cooking and experimenting with vegan recipes. I also understand the reasons behind it, not only on the planet but also on our health. I was vegetarian for a month last January and found it quite tough, I definitely missed fish the most as I\u2019m still yet to find a close substitute. My diet currently consists of 80% vegetarian food with the rest consisting of fish or chicken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"1333\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/healthylivinglondon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/TheMeet_Clapham_02.jpg?fit=576%2C1024\" alt=\"The Meet vegan pop up review in Clapham\" class=\"wp-image-9098\" srcset=\"https:\/\/healthylivinglondon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/TheMeet_Clapham_02.jpg 750w, https:\/\/healthylivinglondon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/TheMeet_Clapham_02-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/healthylivinglondon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/TheMeet_Clapham_02-576x1024.jpg 576w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><figcaption>At the Meet, eating all the food! <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>My friend and I were invited down to \u2018The Meet\u2019 in December to feast on a fantastic plant-based spread \u2013 four sharing starters, one main each and a few cocktails. For starters we had \u2018Green Giant\u2019 \u2013 satay dressed charred broccoli, edamame, tofu and avocado, \u2018Give Me Wings\u2019 \u2013 bourbon, maple and siracha glazed cauliflower florets topped with \u2018blue cheese\u2019, \u2018A Nugget Of Gold\u2019 \u2013 southern fried seitan nuggets with sweet curry sauce and \u2018Mac Daddy O\u2019 \u2013 you\u2019ve already guessed it, vegan style mac &amp; \u2018cheese\u2019 with an option to add some \u2018chorizo\u2019. We enjoyed all the starters, each one indulgent and wholesome with plenty of flavour. For the main I chose the \u2018I Don\u2019t Give A Lamb!\u2019 \u2013 an open kebab with 3 bean and organic tofu kofte\u2019s on artisan flat bread with sauces and garnish, served with chips. My friend had \u2018What A Mess\u2019 \u2013 smokey black bean, plantain and jackfruit chilli served messy with fried and \u2018cheese\u2019. Both incredibly pleasing and filling, the portion sizes were very generous so I wouldn\u2019t recommend going too crazy with the starters if you\u2019re planning to have a main each. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/healthylivinglondon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/TheMeet_Clapham_03.jpg\" alt=\"The Meet vegan pop up review in Clapham\" class=\"wp-image-9096\" srcset=\"https:\/\/healthylivinglondon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/TheMeet_Clapham_03.jpg 750w, https:\/\/healthylivinglondon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/TheMeet_Clapham_03-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><figcaption>The Green Giant, Give me Wings, Mac Daddy O and  A Nugget of Gold<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This restaurant really does cater for everyone, whether you\u2019re a huge advocate of meat, a committed vegan or an experimental foodie they have food designed to suit a spectrum of taste buds.
