Vegetarian Meals In Pubs

Is there much difference between that an the old battery hen?
I think most people that didn't want to by battery eggs still don't want to buy eggs from hens in any cages.

They are bigger, and they have access to a nest and a feed trough, but, yeah, still caged.

Battery hens were banned by the EU at the begining of 2012.

Production of battery chickens / eggs was banned in the EU.

However battery eggs / chickens are still a lot cheaper. In the vast majority of cases eggs as an ingredient are imported from outside the EU and are battery. If free range is used the product will say.

You can still buy 'fresh' eggs from many shops which are battery and imported from outside the EU.

IMO the vast majority of sandwich shops still use battery eggs. They would say so if they used free range.

In reality I'm not sure how much difference there is between barn eggs and free range - but the EU did not ban barn chickens either.

Do the pickle haters refuse them on burgers, or on all foods??

I like Branston Pickle, but never thought to try it on a burger.

Pickles are seriously yum on a burger!! not in an overkill manner, but i dont get the hating. Branston pickle, dunno, but i suspect pickles are contained in 'burger relish'

 

[Looby]

I don't like pickle on burgers but it's the texture not the flavour. I'm happy to pick them out rather than deny pickle lovers their fix. I just give mine to Mr s.

How about a note on the menu saying 'ask if you want pickle/gherkin'?

Add it as list of optional extras, along with bacon.

Those paper buckets can piss off. No friend to the planet and tacky.

Fry up with decent veggie sausages.

Bangers and mash with same and home-made onion gravy.

The proposed menu (draft) has been sent. Bear in mind this is a 'burger menu' with mains as an alternative.

Cheese and leek burger
Halloumi burger
A third veggie burger will be added from two possible options.

Battered Halloumi with peas, chips and tartare sauce.

Bean chilli with rice and a bowl of sour cream.


Also lots of nibbly bits like mozzarella cheesy chips, nachos, bean chilli nachos, onion rings and stuff. Cheese/veggie/stuff wraps or baguettes for lunch.

Sounds fantastic!!! I only once had the privilege of sampling your food when I urgently needed it and it was *amazing*

Sounds good, but I think your 3rd option should be a cheese (maybe even dairy) free one

 

[TruXta]

Deep fried dill pickles, motherfucker.

 

[Looby]

That's a really good veggie menu I think especially as you said you have a fairly small menu. More than 1 burger option is unheard of!

IF it is approved and it is a big if) then it will be flexible. So will look at things like falafel burgers and other options. Guess it would be down to feedback with good old trial and error

I'm thinking of opening vegetarian restaurant and as a nod to meat eaters thought I'd offer lasagne as an option.

It never ceases to amaze me how in some pubs or eateries hoe there is such a lack of imagination in regards to vegetarian dishes.

Fobbing off carnivores with a 'lasagne' is a bit miserly only ONE choice for carnivores I will not go and will tell my friends to avoid it

 

[TruXta]

who goes to a veggie restaurant for meat dishes? Weirdos.

Yeah I like veggie dishes as well. Apart from Sweetcorn

Some vegetarians have meat eating friends. A culinary apartheid doesn't benefit anyone.

I know you're Making A Point , but the real point is that meat eaters CAN eat veggie dishes; vegetarians cannot eat meat ones.

Vegetarians CAN eat meat, they just choose not to

I also have a vegetarian friend who does not like vegetables

Not always true. Certainly not in my case.

And in any case, a choice not to do something shouldn't automatically be assumed to have less validity than an inability to do it.
