Stirr Ups Bar and Restaurant… what an absolute g Stirr Ups Bar and Restaurant… what an absolute gem! I recently visited (gifted) and was blown away by the quality and variety of their vegan offerings.  What impressed me the most was the fact that the burger patties were made in-house, and they were full of flavour. They weren't a faux meat substitute but instead a delicious, tasty bean/cauliflower patty. My personal fav was the Caulifornication, which featured double smashed roasted cauliflower and cumin spiced chickpea patties served with roasted cauliflower hummus, grilled romano peppers, pickled red cabbage, and vegan cheese slices. The vegan machine, featuring double smashed blackbean and jack fruit patty was also amazing.  The cauliflower bites were another fav - crispy pieces of cauliflower tossed in Tubby Toms Buffalo sauce. The food was SO GOOD, my non-vegan partner enjoyed them so much he would happily order them again.  The cocktails looked fancy, were a good price, and tasted really good.  The staff were incredibly friendly and the restaurant was clean. We didn't have to wait long for our food to arrive. We finished off our meal with a delicious Oreo cheesecake and a couple of oat milk cappuccinos.  Overall, @stirr_ups_bar is an incredible vegan street food place that offers high-quality food, tasty cocktails, and great service. If you're a foodie who loves vegan food, you absolutely HAVE to check them out!  What we ordered:
🍔 The vegan machine (Double smashed blackbean and jack fruit patty served with chorizo, cheese slice and baconnaise)
🍔 Caulifornication (Double smashed roasted cauliflower and cumin spiced chickpea patties served with roasted cauliflower hummus, grilled romano peppers, pickled red cabbage and cheese slices)
🥗 Superfood salad (Roasted purple sprouting, roasted sweet potato, quinoa, spinach, red kidney beans, roasted pumpkin seeds, kale, toasted almonds, tossed in our house dressing)
🧆 Battered cauliflower (Crispy pieces of cauliflower, deep fried in a spiced batter and tossed in Tubby Toms Buffalo sauce)
🍹 Bonbon (Vodka, Chambord, Pineapple, Candy Floss)
🍸 Hurricane (Orange and Pineapple with Passionfruit Purée, Lime & Grenadine)
🍰 Oreo cheesecake
☕️ Oat milk cappuccinos

Ingredients
* 120 g golden caster sugar
* 50 g dark chocolate chunks
* 2 @loveraw caramelised biscuit wafer bars
* 1/8 tsp salt
* 200 g plain flour
* 1/2 tsp baking soda

* In a large bowl, combine the golden caster sugar, chocolate chunks and salt. Sieve in the flour and soda.

* In a separate bowl, combine the biscuit spread, butter and golden syrup. Once combined, add it to the flour mixture. Mix using a wooden spoon and bring the dough together using your hands.

* Divide the dough into 8 golf sized balls, flatten slightly and place on the baking tray. Roughly chop the wafer bars and gently push in a couple of pieces into each cookie.
