LOCAL: We meet Kirsty while walking her dachshund at WeinoBib. After complaining "Why is there no beach in London?", we are now on the streets of Dalston accompanied by Falling Leaves.&nbsp;NEIGHBORHOOD BY NEIGHBORHOOD:&nbsp;"When I first moved to Dalston, there were very few Caribbean pubs and businesses. The development, or maybe I should say popularization, of this area was the opening of the Dalston Superstore. In the 90s London was not a cosmopolitan city where you could see a lot of subculture on the streets. Everything felt a bit underground and a bit lawless. You would phone a number and they would tell you the time, day and address of the rave." Kirsty tells us about Dalston's past and present.&nbsp;POCKET GUIDE: We're in Dalston with Berkok. Our mission: Learn something new about wine at each of the wine bars in the neighborhood before the end of the day.

After holding regular gatherings in her garden nicknamed ‘Skank &amp; Grills’, where she’d host enormous vegan buffets with reggae music as the soundtrack, she started Made In Hackney, an all vegan community cookery school and charity with a phenomenal team of women since 2012.<h2 fr-original-style="" style="margin: 0px; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); font-weight: 500; padding: 0px; box-sizing: border-box;">ID</h2>I have recently found inspiration at:&nbsp;Hackney Marshes - It's a wild, scrubby, semi-countryside/semi-urban space full of interesting areas, history, bird-watching hides, the river Lea, old water towers, and a stone circle. I've seen snakes, kingfishers, and bats there.After living for 2 decades in London, I have just discovered: The best vegan milk tea place on earth! It is called <a fr-original-style="" href="https://www.instagram.com/nuttea_uk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); text-decoration: none; background-color: transparent; outline: none; cursor: pointer; transition: color 0.3s ease 0s; touch-action: manipulation; user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box;" target="_blank">NUTTEA</a> and is located in the uninspiring Westfield Stratford shopping centre. They do an incredible variety of gourmet teas, no syrups, no chemicals, topped with rich, decadent nut cream made with macadamia, walnuts, cashews, and almonds. They also do bubble waffles with nut cream. Me and my son can't get enough.I live in:&nbsp;Leyton, East London but prior to that, I lived in Hackney for 18 years.In my heart, I am from:&nbsp;The ocean and the rolling surf of the Caribbean Sea. In reality,&nbsp;I was born in Grantham, Lincolnshire, a small rural town in the East Midlands.My favorite hangout:&nbsp;All Nations Vegan House in Dalston, a stunning vegan Ital food Caribbean restaurant in Hackney, run by Sister Atreka and her gorgeous family. Her sons are often seen behind the counter.<img src="https://images.aposto.com/2022/8/2/1664310371691.jpeg" style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px; border-style: none; position: relative; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box;" ratio="0.84" width="550" fr-original-style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable">Sarah BentleyPhoto: Casey Lazonick<hr fr-original-style="" style="height: 0px; overflow: visible; border-bottom: none; clear: both; user-select: none; break-after: page; box-sizing: border-box;"> A Londoner you must meet:&nbsp;<a fr-original-style="" href="https://www.instagram.com/osunschild/" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); text-decoration: none; background-color: transparent; outline: none; cursor: pointer; transition: color 0.3s ease 0s; touch-action: manipulation; user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box;" target="_blank">Deidre Woods</a> who is an amazing food justice activist and one of the founders of the Glenville Community Kitchen.Only a true Londoner would know:&nbsp;Where to find lunch here for under a fiver!

And yes the cross currents of so many people and cultures influence everything here. Unlike in cities like New York, the neighbourhoods in London are very mixed - economically, socially, racially - and that inherently breeds exciting cross-pollination of food, culture, and businesses. It's what's kept me living here for so long - despite the expense and the pollution.<img src="https://images.aposto.com/2022/8/1/1664220144783.jpeg" style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px; border-style: none; position: relative; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box;" width="550" ratio="1.52" fr-original-style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable">Made In Hackney, plant-based community cookery school<hr fr-original-style="" style="height: 0px; overflow: visible; border-bottom: none; clear: both; user-select: none; break-after: page; box-sizing: border-box;">At the <a fr-original-style="" href="https://www.instagram.com/madeinhackney/" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); text-decoration: none; background-color: transparent; outline: none; cursor: pointer; transition: color 0.3s ease 0s; touch-action: manipulation; user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box;" target="_blank">Made In Hackney</a> community meal service, we represent such a wide variety of different cuisines and try to rotate dishes so everyone has a flavour of their heritage. The same for our vegan cookery classes - we do Caribbean, West African, Mexican, Vietnamese, Italian, Trinidadian - you name it, we have a class for it.As a vegan woman, person, inhabitant, is London gentrified in the right direction?Equal, collaborative, and just development of communities is a good thing - but sadly what we usually get instead is rampant gentrification instead with long-standing businesses and community members being pushed out of certain areas. There's always a certain magic when an area has just started to have a new surge of inhabitants, businesses and art - a time when it's more mixed and you discover a nice this or that, amongst normal shops and services like garages and pharmacies etc. Eventually, it tends to tip too far and all the useful but 'normal' businesses get pushed out.Can you name a few places that would make a non-vegan, vegan?Young Vegans, All Nations Vegan House, Club Mexicana, The Wave - and of course ALL the Made In Hackney cookery classes which people can participate either online or face to face. You can also try our wholefood plant-based burger in Fullers pubs across London. This burger is EPIC and def has the power to turn a carnivore more vegan.What do you complain about the most?The government, inequality, cognitive dissonance, institutional racism, hunger, air pollution - I complain about a lot of things.Where do you take your breathers, what do you do when you want to escape?I love to grow food, garden, visit beautiful beaches and surf. I love yoga. But most of all, hanging out with my magic spirit being, my son, playing and going on adventures.
