Meet Ellie and her fantastic [all female] technical team at itsu [grocery] standing by one of our favourite products they helped create!

Ellie knows that women in the workplace have an important role in inspiring others to develop their confidence and self-belief.

Which is why Ellie, since joining itsu [grocery], started a growth & development working group and as part of this, relaunched personal development plans across the business, whilst holding regular lunch & learn sessions. This has led Ellie to arrange for 15 women at itsu to attend a conference, supporting them in developing more courage and confidence to take into their work.

This is a post to say that wherever we are in our careers, it’s our small steps every day that will eventually lead to

This is our team member Olga. She’s 18 years old and arrived at itsu at 6.30am this morning.

She works around a degree in Forensic Psychology, alongside two other jobs caring and babysitting for friends and family members. She takes this care into her work at itsu, everyday.

Without dedicated people like Olga, you wouldn’t be able to receive the beautiful ‘works of art’ that you pick-up at our stores everyday.

Olga, thank you.

was the first place you could buy itsu products outside of our restaurants, starting with crispy seaweed thins all the way back in 2013. This is just one reason why we were so exited to build this [very pink] window display in their High Street Kensington store! Any fun ideas of what to do with the giant seaweed pack afterwards?!

Here’s Naomi earlier with our veggie sushi collection, one for vegans this January (& every other month of the year). In our restaurants this eve 🏬 or delivered to your door via our delivery partners 🛴 🌱

Ditch the cold leftover turkey sandwich on Boxing Day and make this instead, we promise you wont regret it!

You might think we’re a day late with this post… but usually, the kitchen team in each of our restaurants make more ‘no meat Monday’ salads on a Tuesday, than any other day 😂

We may still coming to terms with Jurgen leaving the tent last week 😢 but we are SO READY for the Bake Off final tonight!! 🕺 Annnnnnnnnnd we've teamed up with to bring you this handshake-worthy recipe ☝️ Vegan Peanut Butter and Miso Cookies 🍪 Why not whip up a batch to enjoy tonight?

100g Vegan butter
200g Caster Sugar
250g ManiLife smooth peanut butter

3 tbsp plant milk
100g Vegan chocolate chips or chunks

Preheat the oven to 180C
Mix the vegan butter, sugar, peanut butter, and miso together a large bowl.
Sieve the flour into the bowl and beat into a dough. We used our hands.
Add the vegan chocolate chips & plant milk then and mix again.

Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
