Vegan Public Livingroom (2)

How to make the stickiest vegan chocolate cake? How to make a thick vegan crème fraiche? Vegan Tiramisu? No problem. The volunteers in the Pogo cafe cook and bake for life and taste.
Next to the counter there is a board with people´s names and free slots to take “shifts”. During a shift there is a chef cook, a main assistant and people who just chop fruit, tofu and veg … just because a non-hierarchical gastronomic system hasn´t been figured out yet. Work in progress.

The money made through selling vegan salads, soups, sandwiches, cakes and sweets is used solely for ingredients and paying the rent. The stated mission is to bring affordable vegan food to the people.

When the shift is over the volunteers hang out on the soft sofas in the cafe, read books from the shelfs of their tiny but meaty;-) bookshop, play games and cook food with things from the volunteer fridge which contains older and skipped food – vegan of course. Some stay over and sleep on the couch to wake up when the first shift starts and continue to make food. The transition from the vegan public livingroom to the vegan cafe and vice-versa is organic.
