The kebab shop on B'burn Rd, their veg is never frozen, wilting from the heat perhaps, but never frozen.

You will have a better chance if you go to a vegetarian restaurant which advertises 'vegetables in season'.

I don't know why you are averse to frozen veg - frozen soon after picking retains more nutrients than veg that has just been 'chilled'.

The restaurants to avoid are the ones who use microwaves - food loses a lot after 'nuking'.

Some of these seem pretty fresh... but they're not in Accy!



BTW is there a reason for your request??

Don't know about Accrington but the Sparrowhawk in Fence only use fresh veg and everything else is made fresh no microwaves. Certainly worth travelling a bit further for.

Long time since I`ve been there, but it was good grub, just not enough of it.
