Dénes Marton, known for his YouTube channel Daynesh, spent 50 hours in Paris on a mission to find the best vegan food in the city, known for its dairy-heavy cuisine. Armed with a checklist including items like a vegan croissant and a traditional French savory dish, Marton searched through Paris to challenge the stereotype that vegan food is hard to find in the city. Despite some initial disappointments with vegan sushi, his visit to Aujourd’hui Demain, a vegan restaurant and concept store in the 11th arrondissement, turned out to be a game-changer. The meal featured dishes like a Juicy Marbles vegan steak and a pretzel-crusted dessert that left Marton impressed and satisfied.

While some items on his checklist, like a vegan éclair, proved elusive, Marton found an impressive selection of French vegan cheeses at Aujourd’hui Demain’s market section. The experience of tasting the cheeses, along with the memorable meal at the restaurant, left Marton feeling optimistic about the future of vegan food in Paris. Despite its reputation for butter and cheese, Marton's adventure showed that Paris has a growing vegan scene with delicious and innovative plant-based options for those willing to explore.
