It’s Easter long weekend and it’s time to get some yummy nibbles whether you’re entertaining guests or you’re going to hermit by yourself watching your favourite movies or smooching with your boo on the couch.

Seems simple, right? But what if you’re vegan? Then, it’s less simple. But we’ve rounded up a list of places to get some yummy treats for the long weekend that range from sweet to savoury.
