It's always amazing how quickly time flies by - and tibits one year anniversary is no different.

October saw the 1st birthday of the Heddon Street vegetarian favourite. Owners Reto Frei and Rolf Hiltl (pictured with Chris Corbin of The Wolseley), threw a party to celebrate, with a little Champagne, and lots of samples!

Hailing from Switzerland, tibits is an all-day vegetarian restaurant built on four core values: trust in the product, joy of life, progressiveness and time.

The attraction of tibits is that it is perfect for city living, catering to those in a hurry, as well as those who wish to relax for hours.

Tibits offers a buffet, or rather ‘a food boat’ from which customers have the option to choose between 35 salads and 12 hot dishes. A seasonal menu operates, ranging from Asian, to Indian, to Mediterranean, with fresh juices and organic beers and wine also on the menu daily.

Tibits claim that when it comes to speed, they're really fast, but this is no Wagamama style restaurant - the atmosphere created is completely high-class - with Designer's Guild interiors no less.

Relaxed and uncomplicated are two of the key words that sum up the experience that is dining at tibits, so make sure you check it out soon before another year goes by... If you haven't already.

If you have, go again! The tibits door is always open...
