Chomp Vegan Eatery Opens

On November 26, Chomp Vegan Eatery opened for business in Port Moody, BC, offering flavorful plant-based dining that is also gluten-free. Founded by 29-year-old Vanessa Mills, Chomp is the first all-vegan restaurant in Metro Vancouver’s Tri-Cities and was designed to be gluten-free as well to accommodate a variety of dietary restrictions, says Mills. Menu options include the Grilled Cheese Madness sandwich, Fiery Thai Tofu Bowl, and a variety of other sandwiches, salads, wraps, cupcakes, and pastries. Additionally, a portion of proceeds from the sale of food and displayed artwork will benefit two local charities, the Charlene Reaveley Children’s Charity Society and the SHARE Family & Community Services Society.
