Vegetarian Star

Apparently Russell Simmons didn’t teach the chef at Nick and Toni’s very well. Earlier we brought you the news of how he requests special vegan risottos at the New York restaurant whenever he dines. You think that would make the chef a little more sensitive.

Sir Paul McCartney was dining there with his girlfriend Nancy Shevell, when the chef ordered the waiter to bring a meat-based amuse bouche to the “vegetarian guests”. To which McCartney replied, “You can tell the chef to stick it … but don’t tell him I said that.”

Even if you’ve had your head in a sandbox for the past century, you’ve had to have overheard the news that the Beatles superstar is a longtime vegetarian. And since Paul is a regular at the restaurant, the chef had no excuse.

Playful banter? Or is Nick and Toni’s chef getting tired of catering to the vegans who act like celebrities?
