Steve Wynn Brings Tal Ronnen On Board For Menu Revamp

Wynn Las Vegas

The already vegan-friendly Wynn Las Vegas will be getting a veggie face-lift, as Steve Wynn has invited vegan chef Tal Ronnen to join the hotel’s culinary team.

After going vegan, the casino mogul put several vegan items on the menus at each of his restaurants. He also distributed a DVD copy of the film that inspired him to do so, Eating, to all of his employees. In addition, Wynn’s will was modified to include the Humane Society as a beneficiary.

“It’s an honor and pleasure to work with Steve Wynn, who recently became vegan, and his incredible team of chefs,” Ronnen said, according to VegNews.

“These chefs are all at the top of their game which reflects the standard of excellence that you expect at The Wynn and I am so thrilled to be here cooking with them.”

Ronnen helped design the popular meat substitute Gardein, which features fresh cold and frozen items from Beefless Tips to entire meals with rice and vegetables. He also played a role in designing Oprah Winfrey‘s meal plans when she first tried the diet for 21 days.

    I have stayed at Wynn, there are a lot of veggie options and it is a very nice place. Excellent poker room and the salads in the sportsbook are excellent.
