We happened to be near Asbury Park, New Jersey and decided to check out the Vegan Pop Up Shop being held in the Convention Hall along the boardwalk on August 18th, 2019. The Hall was filled with people checking out all the vegan booths. As expected, the most crowded spot was the section with food booths. Sample booths included Caribreeze Vegan Delight from Spring Valley, NY serving up Caribbean cuisine, Cinnaholic from Westfield, NJ selling vegan cinnamon rolls, The Baklava Lady vending vegan baklava in several flavors, Sesame Satori selling vegan halva, Freakin’ Vegan serving up vegan empanadas, Hungry Like the Wolf offered vegan pizza, Mexi-Boys sold a wide range of vegan Mexican dishes, and there was so much more including vegan bags, t-shirts, etc.
This event was sponsored by New Jersey VegFest. They frequently sponsor events in New Jersey. See: https://www.facebook.com/NewJerseyVegFest/?eid=ARCPMGTcpc_Si_Gpn2imgy_vtDemgUFTq3Q62uQ8cCVhV6SRD-SRk9s7bepjQBiMzRcfWq2W0WSqDmgK
