High street Japanese restaurant, Wagamama's has announced a new range of kids vegan dishes - and they look incredible.
The brand new vegan children's menu is available at Wagamama restaurants across the UK, and includes two mini versions of everyones favourites.
There's mini Yasai Ramen, with udon noodles in a vegetable soup and fried tofu, and mini Yasai Katsu Curry with sweet potato and Butternut squash in crispy panko breadcrumbs.
The mini versions of the adult meals are sure to be a hit with little ones - and a great way to get them healthy eating and some extra veggies.

Ross Farquhar, Chief Marketing Officer, says, “At wagamama, being adventurous with food is central to our ‘positive eating, positive living’ ethos. After the huge success we’ve enjoyed with our vegan and vegetarian menu and seeing how parents loved how visiting our restaurants helped their little noodlers broaden their culinary horizons, we decided that introducing a plant-based children’s menu was the obvious next step. We’re encouraging kids to try new tastes and textures and develop a playful palette.”

Bahee Van de Bor adds, ‘It’s vital that children who follow a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle are still consuming important nutrients. These include protein, iron and vitamin B12 for normal growth and immunity; essential omega-3 fats and iodine for brain development; and calcium for building healthy bones and teeth.
"The new vegan dishes on the children’s wagamama menu incorporates a number of these ingredients, ensuring that children are getting all the nutrients they need whilst broadening their flavour horizons!’
