DINING OUT
Grassroots Pantry is a personal favorite of Team BYDEAU. This Hong Kong restaurant has a simple core philosophy: to create food that heals with the highest culinary standards and using the freshest, most nutrient-dense of sustainable, plant-based ingredients. The food is always delicious and satisfying, all the "meat" dishes are made out of vegetables and tastes just like the meat version!
EATING IN
SNACK BAGS
live.zero Snack Bags
Pack her favorite snacks like sweeties and cookies in these super cute reusable bags by Marley's Monsters. Each bag is made with 2 cotton prints with a waterproof interior and can be machine washed every time. We can't decide which print we like more!
PLANTS
Send this cute orchid vase arrangement planted in a red pot to let them know you're thinking of them. The Yumi will bloom and rebloom and will look effortlessly cute in any space. We've even made it easy for them to look after the plant with a sleek brass water mister too.
CHOCOLATES
Conspiracy Chocolate
Conspiracy Chocolate's bean-to-bar chocolate is naturally vegan and made in Hong Kong using 75% cacao beans from Vietnam. These mouthwatering bars of chocolate are packed in eco-friendly packaging for a guilt-free treat!
There are plenty of environmentally friendly gifting options out there if you're searching for gifts for a loved one. If the gifts that you have your eye come in plastic wrapping, it helps to drop a message to request for the plastic wrapping to be removed on your deliveries. Every little helps and we can all do our bit to reduce waste!
