London's longest running food magazine, The Jellied Eel - a free ethical eating quarterly - and the Ethical Eats London-wide caterers network - the London Food Link group concerned with sustainability in London restaurants - has awarded The Riverside Vegetaria restaurant in Kingston the title of best ethical vegetarian restaurant in London.

A shortlist of restaurants was made following a public vote which considered some of London's best vegetarian restaurants. A judging panel of experts - which included celebrity chef author Arthur Potts Dawson, Editor of The Vegetarian Magazine, Jane Hughes, and George Clark of the Sustainable Restaurant Association - then had the final say.

Mildred's vegetarian restaurant in Soho was Highly Commended, whilst The Karma Free Pizza Company in Harrow was given a special One To Watch award.

Ritchie Sakthivel, managing director of The Riverside Vegetaria restaurant in Kingston, has been quoted as saying that the philosophy behind the restaurant is to “be completely ethical, you must be vegetarian. Living as a vegetarian improves the life of an individual in both a physical and moral sense."
