   == Sunday
  -On Sunday, we travelled to another part of the city, Lindenau, to have brunch at http://www.suesssalzig.de/[süß + salzig]; It did not disappoint! An amazing spread of vegan food layed out on two buffet tables. We stayed there for 3 hours, eating, relaxing, reading. It was wonderful. I only got a photo of the coffee - I was enjoying the food too much. They had different vegan spreads including nutella, kalamata olive, pumpkin, 'creton', butter, ... and more. We also stuffed our faces with cake, a tomato and seitan hedgehog, bread, sweet oatmeal?, cereal, mandarins.

  -Once we were satisfied, we went back to the city centre. Usually stores are closed on Sundays, but it was "city open day" that Sunday, which means that the Veganz store and Goodies restaurant was open! We walked around the city and visited a few shops. Before hoping on the train we stopped at Goodies for a coffee and purchased a vegan survival kit to survive the ride: a Chewybacca cookie (there was Chewy bobblehead next to the cookies) a brownie and two bagels (egg salad and bbq). We were so full from the brunch we kept the brownie for the next day.

  The "plan" (we all know how plans work out ;)) was to eat at http://restaurant-greensoul.de/[Green Soul] located near our rental apartment. It looks like an amazing vegetarian/vegan restaurant! I had been dreaming of their walnut burger and crème brulée for weeks.
  
  Unfortunately, we were too late to eat there that evening. We even tried ordering from their menu on Foodora, but that didn't work out because of a technical problem on Foodora's side. Sadly, we never made it to Green Soul that weekend; we other plans on Saturday and the restaurant is closed on Sundays. I will make a point to eat there next time I visit.
  
  By 22:30 we made it to a sushi place we like called Mr. Moto. They have really tasty veggie california rolls http://mrmoto.de/[Mr. Moto]. We were too hungry and forgot to ask if the veggie sushi was vegan (sometimes there is fish sauce in the rice). It was delicious.

  == Saturday
  Saturday morning, we had plans to visit the aformentioned Christmas Marketing with Stefan's family. Before meeting up with them, we stopped by http://www.goodies-berlin.de/kategorie/leipzig/[Goodies] and https://veganz.de/en/[Veganz] - all vegan shop and cantine. It was simply delicious. For breakfast we had, this amazing egg salad bagel (made with chickpeas, spelled pasta with fresh herbs and tomato) and the get up and Goji smoothie (made with Fresh pineapples, strawberries, gojibeberries, banana, and orange juice). It was like a punch of freshness in the face. Definitely made me get up and go.

  The first weekend of December, we travelled south to visit Leipzig - one of our favourite cities! We were very excited to explore the Weihnachtsmarkt (German Christmas Market) and the beautiful city once again. We haven't been there since we became vegan and were eager to discover vegan restaurants and stores in a different city.
