Veggie Might

Tibits Vegetarian Restaurant Opens

Things that are unhealthy:
Sleeping in your parents bed with them.
Surviving on coffee and fags.
Attempting friendship with an ex who screwed you over.

Things that are healthy:
Tibits, a new all-day vegetarian restaurant, bar and food-to-go venue that opens in the West End today. Before you scream hairy armpits and Velcro sandals, be aware that it’s not all tofu, sprouts and mung beans.

In the first British outpost of this Swiss chain, you’ll find everything from spelt croissants, chocolate brioche and fresh juices at breakfast to soups, sandwiches and salads throughout the day. In addition, a full bar (as in alcohol) operates in the evening.

Don’t expect wooden cutlery or recycled napkins: Tricia Guild of Designer’s Guild has given the place her signature luxury touch.

It’s the perfect place to veg out.

Tibits, 12-14 Heddon Street, W1B 4DA (020 7745 6146 or tibits.co.uk).
