00:00Last week as part of our search for places open on Christmas Day

00:02We went to Sicilian NQ an Italian restaurant in Manchester's northern quarter

00:06And what we found was one of the best vegan menus in the city

00:10We sat down to talk to owner Carmen Andrea about her own vegan journey and what makes this place so special

00:17So I was a vegetarian most of my life

00:21My family is vegetarian

00:24my sister is

00:26the boss that took this thing of

00:34Vegetarian when she was 11 and then in the same moment of our life

00:39One year ago more or less

00:42We both became a vegan

00:44so obviously this is against my

00:49beliefs

00:51but I also understand that

00:56This is a business

00:59so

01:00Maybe in the near future

01:03It's possible that I will go 100% vegan

01:07But the market now is not ready. We need to

01:12teach

01:13because sometimes people say oh vegan no good no

01:19things like

01:21Pasta with tomato sauce that we eat when we were children. This is vegan

01:27but people if you tell oh, do you want vegan? Oh, no, what's

01:32Because they believe that is the supermarket food. You know that

01:39food very processed

01:41Because I'm surrounded

01:43the Buddhist Center the junkie food Aladdin on the corner the Indian purezza

01:50That is

01:52Kind of Italian on the corner. So yeah, I am in the right position
