I'm a chef , so I hold extra hate for vegans. I work at restaurant where we cook Mediterranean food, we always have at least two or three vegetarian options for entrees and plenty of appetizers on our menu and some of these can be prepared vegan, no big deal.
What bothers me is most of the vegan/vegitarian crowd always seems to have every other dietary restriction and then about the lack of options. It's not my fault that Mediterranean food is loaded with fish, veal, lamb, pork, beef,cheese, butter, cream , shell fish, etc and you want ask vegan gluten free 100% organic dish with no nightshades onions or garlic while the two cooks have at least a dozen other things cooking don't want to stop and make something else
If your at all sensitive about food you shouldn't eat out. I don't do it but I've seen plenty of kitchens where the secret to that great vegetarian soup or burger is a little chicken base they forgot to tell ya about :-D
