In search of vegan pizza places in Belgium/Antwerpen

I kinda want to eat pizza on a pizza place, and i guess it's worth a try even though it will be cheeseless =p I guess pizza can be yummy with a topping of a good sauce and some nice vegetables. Sadly it's not that easy to find a place that serves vegan pizza cuz they often add MILK in the dough. And pizza without cheese and dough would be veggies with tomato sauce, aka not pizza... And i'm not interested in going to a pizza place to eat salad :x If i'm in a pizza place i kinda want to eat pizza =p

So i asked some pizza places if they have any vegan options if i order their veggie-pizza without cheese. So far i only asked the big chains Pizza Hut and Domino's, who have vegan options in other countries, but it seems that apparantly in Belgium they decided to add milk in their doughs... For other pizza places it's pretty hard to find an email to contact them on, which means i have to call them or show up at their pizza place, and i'm a bit shy ;p So much easier to just send an email if they had one =p


Pizza Hut (not vegan!):

Dear Madam,

Thanks for your interest in Pizza Hut.
But none of our pizzas/crust are vegan. Also the dough of the vegetarian pizzas contain milk, so that wouldn’t be an option for you…

Domino's (not vegan!):

Hello Anette, I am sorry, but there is whey powder in our dough, so it is milk. There is no plan to change the dough in the near future.

Too bad, cuz there are vegan options from these chains in other countries if you order without cheese, and in Norway you can get vegan pizzas on the two biggest pizza chains Peppes Pizza and Dolly Dimple's if you order without cheese...

I also worry a bit that people who are allergic to lactose/milk, or who are vegans doesn't know about this, and might think their pizzas ordered without cheese is safe to eat. I didn't find any info about the ingredients in their doughs on their websites, and standard pizza dough has the ingredients: flour, water, vegetable oil, salt and yeast, so most people would assume the dough would be without milk, which it sadly isn't.

If anyone knows pizza places that use a vegan dough and has a tasty vegan topping in the Antwerp area feel free to tell me =D Until then i'll keep making my own vegan pizzas at home =)

You'll also need to provide any necessary resources and wider marketing information or materials. A social media manager should have clear guidelines for their role, and yours as a client.
