We love finding a new place to eat in Cornwall and we've just discovered a new seaside spot that's not only going to prove a mecca for veggies and vegans but is also offering FREE tasters of its new menu - and cakes.

The Vood Bar is a vegan street food van which has just been launched by ex-nanny Danielle Clancy and has secured a summertime spot on Penzance prom.

It's opening on Thursday, April 13 and in their first few days, they're looking for taste testers to try out their new menu - particularly their range of cakes, tarts and brownies - for free.

Danielle, 27, from Pool, is a dedicated vegan who came up with the idea for Vood in her quest for meat-free food at Camp Bestival, where she working as a nanny last year.

She said: "It's usually quite difficult to find vegan stuff to eat when I'm out and about but there was so much choice at the festival. There was one place I went to that I loved and I thought, 'I could do that'.

"I've always enjoyed cooking and my mum said I should go into catering. This (the vegan van) is something that Cornwall should have, so I thought I'd give it a go."

Danielle, who's setting up on her own, but who says she's had lots of help from her friend, Stanya Schofield, secured one of a handful of Cornwall Council pitches on Penzance promenade and is looking forward to opening day.
