list shops Bruges and beyond

Some shops in Bruges (with storefront), which may be of interest to vegans.
And I’m trying to visit all chocolate shops to check and taste their vegan offer (what a job, but someone’s gotta do it 😉 ).

SHOPS IN BRUGES

	Bioplanet, Sint-Pieterskaai 53, 8000 Brugge, location Organic supermarket. Just outside city center. Branch of chain store, several shops in other Belgian cities too. REVIEW
	Biovita, Torhoutsesteenweg 179, 8200 Sint-Andries Brugge, location + Maalsesteenweg 299, 8310 Sint-Kruis Brugge, location Organic shop, two branches just outside the city center. The main shop in Sint-Andries has a large collection of toys. Opened a 3rd shop at the end of 2014 in Roeselare (40km from Bruges). See my POSTS about Biovita.
	Confiserie Zucchero, Mariastraat 12, 8000 Brugge Candyshop. Has lots of vegan candy. NOTE: despite the sign at the door that says 100% vegan, this is not correct. Eg the cuberdons contain gelatine.
