JournalNow.com: Veggin' Out
Contrary to a popular stereotype, vegetarians are not all champions of self-denial, pathetically munching a sprout on the sidelines while watching the omnivores have all the culinary fun. Instead, the vegetarians we know love good food and know where to get it. They aren't about to settle for a bland meal, either at home or at a restaurant.

I expect fine-dining restaurants to be creative when they offer a vegetarian dish. They’re usually creative with the meat dishes—interesting sauces, side items or presentations, for instance—so why should the vegetarian entree be boring or an afterthought?
When I went to the fine-dining restaurant Table in Charlotte a couple of months ago, they had only one vegetarian entree, but it was INTERESTING. It was a crispy potato “bone”—a full potato baked with a center of mushroom duxelles. Now that was something I couldn’t get somewhere else.
