Vegetarian Star

Heather Mills is predicting her vegan restaurant V Bites will be as big as McDonald’s in the next decade. Although the cafe is closed for the winter, some have speculated because of financial difficulties, Mills insists the rest is for brainstorming and a “big announcement” will be made in the next year.

“In 10 years there will be more VBites restaurants than McDonald’s,” Mills told reporters. “It’s the future. We’ve been using the time when the cafe has closed for brainstorming. VBites has been phenomenally successful this year. Everyone loves the food, even carnivores. Plans for it to become a franchise are very much on.”

Currently, there isn’t a a major chain of veg fast food, casual dining or fine dining restaurants, although many independently owned eateries have proved successful in every area of the US, UK and other parts of the world. The idea of going through a drive-through to order faux chicken fingers or having a quantity of vegetarian/vegan quick food options that rival that of Starbucks sounds great if Mills can pull it off.

Heather Mills has temporarily closed her vegan cafe in Hove, East Sussex, V Bites, with sources saying the staff has been placed on winter break and will return to operations in the spring.

According to the Daily Mail, a sign on the door of the restaurant reads, “VBites is ­having its end-of-summer ­holiday from Saturday, ­September 11. We’ve been working hard and it’s been our pleasure to serve you over the summer. We’d like to thank all our ­customers and friends and look forward to seeing you again soon when we re-open.”

Does this mean Heather’s business isn’t doing as well as she predicted?

It depends on who you speak with.

Heather Mills‘ is a vegan entrepreneur who’s business accomplishments include acquiring Redwood Whole Foods company and opening a vegan cafe, V Bites in the UK.

But could her high hopes of being a successful veggie business guru be smashed by financial issues?

The Daily Mail reports recent low customer numbers at the V Bites Cafe and says profits at Redwood are at best modest, based on her possible plans for expansion.

“At present, although Redwood has a £3million turnover, its profits are pretty modest – in the last accounts they stood at £309,000. Not really a yearly sum that can keep Heather at the rate she is spending.”

Heather insists on giving back to communities, as her Hunts Point Alliance Charity continues to serve impoverished families in the Bronx in the U.S.

‘I have created a free cafe for the people to eat whenever they want,” Mills said.

“The million dollars are in the bank for them. I have given my life to charities.”

Heather Mills wants you to vote for her on Dancing On Ice, according to The UK Sun.

So the next time you’re eating at V Bites in Brighton,  grab a napkin and write the line to vote for her down on it.

The fliers that are posted at her vegan restaurant read, “Heather Mills stars in Dancing on Ice. Support Heather. Watch the show to vote.”

Heather has also posted her voting number on her Twitter updates.

“My voting number for Dancing on Ice is 09016 16 10 07. I don’t know anyone else’s number ;-)”

Sure, you don’t Heather. 😉

Hard work calls for celebration.

The Mirror reported the contestants on Dancing on Ice were given chocolate skate shaped cakes for their efforts, but not every competitor was delighted.

“Only vegan Heather Mills moaned about them,” said a source.

Heather probably moaned from disappointment rather the discontent, as she knows there are plenty of good vegan cakes in the world to reward yourself for a good day on the ice.

Like the homemade vegan cakes (some of which are gluten-free) in her own restaurant, V Bites.

Heather probably keeps a few slices in her locker, next to that extra pair of blade covers.

We reported earlier that Heather Mills had opened a U.S. version of her V Bites vegan restaurant and cafe.

He, he, he, just kidding.

Actually, reports on the web were slightly incorrectly and the center in Bronx is the Hunts Point Alliance for Children (HPAC) community gathering space and distribution center.

So while the restaurant isn’t up yet, perhaps there is chatter going on at HPAC headquarters?

HPAC is the charity that Heather used to donate over a million dollars in vegan food to the area last year.

More information on the distribution center can be found here.

Update: V  Bites The Bronx isn’t here yet.

Vegan foodies in the U.S. will be glad to hear that Heather Mills has opened a V Bites restaurant in the Bronx, New York.

This comes just months after the grand opening of V Bites in Hove Lagoon in the UK.

Heather personally was present at the opening yesterday afternoon.

Heather’s no stranger to the area, as she’s worked with a charity of hers, Hunts Point Alliance, serving underprivileged Bronx children and families.

Last year, Heather donated over a million dollars of vegan food to children and families in the Bronx area and has also taught weekend cooking classes.

It was rumored months ago that Heather was looking in the NY area to open her vegan restaurant, but after V Bites in the UK opened its doors, many assumed Heather was done for awhile.

Thank goodness she’s like the vegan Energizer Bunny and shows no signs of stopping.

Heather Mills must be one of those self-punishing workaholics.

Besides her charitable work with children in the Bronx, she recently opened her own vegan restaurant, V Bites, and took over the vegetarian food company Redwood Foods.

Now, Heather has started her own sustainable clothing line, B@1, which will feature recycled charity shop clothing.

The line will launch August 27th at the Highlands Hollywood in association with the charity event Celebrity Catwalk.

Be sure to check the website for B@1 frequently, as more updates are promised to appear.
