So it's Friday, my last service for the week. The menu was designed to be easy to execute with minimal staff. And much to my own astonishment I got the buffet up on time. Looks like it's just going to be a 2 hour service and then pack down and clean up and wahoo! I'm on my weekend! YEAH!
And then exec Chef comes along, looks at the buffet and asked "What can a vegan eat from here?"
The sad answer was steamed cauliflower and zucchini with harissa roasted brocolli. So we raided the fridge for leftover vegan tagine, and I had to come up with a soup. It was pretty close but I managed to get the two extra dishes up in time. Whew.
When advised front of house to update the menu, they asked "But why? There are no vegans on campus."*
Vegan drill.
Just because there are no vegans is no excuse not to cater for them anyway.
