Our mission is to be a valuable resource for new and aspiring vegans, guiding you on your path to a healthier, plant-based lifestyle. Danny and Manny are here to support you every step of the way
We have a background and a passion for things that are special and unique and food was no exception. Whenever we could we sought out the best dishes, ingredients, and experience. We took notes of what we loved and what we felt we needed to learn more about. Becoming Vegan, that love and curiosity did not change, it expanded.
Who we are:
Danny comes from a luxury background and brings that element to how we present our courses and teach aesthetics. His ability and love for understanding cultures have given us a tool that we can incorporate into a well-rounded and diversely culture-driven teaching method.
Manny is a Nationally Certified Fitness Instructor and Health Connoisseur. Having studied in the field of nutritional biology for over 10 years before has provided both a healthy and fine cooking approach method. His technique comes from a level of sustainability, by studying nutrition on a biological level his talents have guided the course designs down the path of choosing the best quality ingredients that will not only create a delicious meal but also keep your health in mind.
Our Background in the art of teaching:
We have been instructing for over 6 years now but have been in the field of education throughout our career journey. Whether it was teaching recruits the quality of a perfect Espresso or educating junior chefs at William Sonoma, we've always found ourselves wanting to share our knowledge.
We began this Vegan journey over 6 years ago and as we imagined we found ourselves eager to share what we've discovered. We started a Meet-up in Tampa Florida called Plant-Based Meet-up with The Vegan Gents where we would bring the "YouTube" cooking world to a live audience and share our knowledge and our food with others just as eager to learn as we were.
As of today, we are blessed with over 1,000 members on Meet-Up who truly believe in our passion and love for The Art Of Plant-Based Cooking. We have a special bond that was formed through this way of living and do our best to incorporate it into our classes, our teaching and most of all our food. So welcome to The Vegan Gents and enjoy the journey.
