Hi Everyone!
We are raising £15000 to open our 100% vegan cafe in Aberdeen.
Who are you?
We are Nathalie, Alex, Stephy, and Joyce. We are the founder and
co-founders of Northern Light Café in Aberdeen. We want to share that vegan
food is more than just salad.
Your story
We want people to know that you can enjoy
good and healthy food without consuming animal products.
Having a selection of raw and cooked
food-including desserts, we want to promote the vegan lifestyle, and show
people that vegan food is actually delicious. We found out that everything can
be made into vegan food, using alternatives. There is no need to give up on
your favourite food, but just add a little twist. It is about having the right
ingredients.
What
will make our restaurant special?
Our café is 100% vegan. We want to look
at our café and see that it is more like a social meeting place where people
can have a cup of coffee and relax, doing their work, or just read a book.
Even though we will serve cakes and food
as well, we will have daily specials, just like pubs and create extraordinary food
like plant based ice creams, and cheese. We will also have vegan cheese tasting
events.
We are planning to hold earth hour, where
we will switch off the lights and use candles instead. It can give you a cosy,
exciting and different feeling than going to a regular café, while at the same time, contribute to
environment. The food that will match will be raw vegan food, where we
do not need the cooker. We will also have film and documentary screenings about
vegans and the plant based lifestyle like ‘What The Health’ and ‘Okja’, to promote vegan culture in a way.
For our café decoration, we will invite
artists who want to volunteer to display their work in our cafe, like coming up
with a beautiful art work for our café walls (fully credited). In the summer,
we will open the garden, where guests can enjoy the al-fresco experience.
We will also offer vegan cooking and
baking classes to teach you how to make vegan cuisines at home. For example,
making and exploring plant-based cheeses are really fun, or cakes, basic or for
special events.
To add on, we will have a mini-market
where we will sell vegan products as the availability in Aberdeen is low.
Where will the money go?
When we receive the complete funding, it will cover the cafe's first month's expenses. With the extra money we receive, we will hold more awesome pop up events around Aberdeen and surroundings.
