Vegetarian Star

Christopher Jarecki, rock musician and husband of Alicia Silverstone, is normally a pretty well behaved man.

But every once in awhile he gets “naughty.”

When asked if her husband was also vegan, Silverstone replied, “He’s a vegan who flirts with fish. Sometimes he gets naughty and has a little fish here or there.”

But the most important question is: How does Alicia punish Christopher for being bad?

Are you guilty of being naughty in your diet?

It’s been awhile since we brought you some good old fashioned food voyeurism.

Since Alicia Silverstone has debuted as a cookbook author, now may be the best time to show you how she eats when visiting New York City.

Alicia  gave all the delicious details to grubstreet.com.

Here are a few highlights so you can take note for your next road trip.

Wednesday, October 7
“I came in on Tuesday and brought food on the airplane. So in the morning I ate the leftovers from my plane ride: a kabocha squash and couscous dish, an M chopped salad with ranch dressing and wasabi sweet potatoes — all from M Café, this amazing restaurant in L.A. When I fly I often grab it to go. I had a little refrigerator in my room, so when I got there I asked them to clean out the minibar and I put my leftovers in there.”

Thursday, October 8
“I brought some miso paste with me. I always bring it when I travel. So I just took a little piece of miso paste and put it in some hot water, and that was my morning miso soup.”

“For lunch I went to Gobo and I had white bean, vegetable, and kabocha squash soup, and I had sun-dried tomato and swiss chard rice-pasta lasagna that was unbelievably delicious. It was lasagna, but they use rice pasta instead of white flour. And I had radicchio salad with chicken and raisins and pine nuts. It wasn’t chicken, but it was fried — yummy, whatever it was. I went by myself.”

Shannon Elizabeth made her very first trip to Candle 79 recently and decided let her Twitter followers know where she was headed.

“Heading to lunch w/a friend to a vegan place I’ve been wanting to try-will let you know how it is! Then rehearsals….”

Luckily, Shannon wasn’t too full and overwhelmed not to Tweet about the experience.

“Lunch was awesome! Went to Candle 79 on the Upper East side-amazing food-met the owners-they’re very sweet!”

Candle 79 is an upscale vegetarian restaurant in New York City that serves as the sister restaurant of the more casual Candle Cafe.

The restaurant that’s been featured in prestigious publications such as Time, Vegetarian Times, Forbes and VegNews was established in 2003 as the demand for good vegetarian food grew.

Now that we know the famous American Pie web cam dancer might be frequenting it more often, we’ll definetely bookmark the menu and try to make it to Manhattan’s Upper East Side soon.

In Gwyneth Paltrow‘s latest edition of Goop.com she’s recommending you try the taco stands in L.A.

“I spent most of last spring and summer in Los Angeles doing lots of work and eating some incredible food…from the new phenomenon of the gourmet taco truck, to the tucked away neighborhood spots to the latest Suzanne Goin…the LA food is quietly and unpretentiously on fuego.”

One such taco truck is the Kogi Truck, which features Koren tacos, including a tofu taco that Kogi says even the meat eaters should try.

“The tofu is pan seared and topped with all the fixings. Hell, it’s so good you should try one even if you’re a strict carnivore.”

Oh, yeah. That’s what we’re talking about!

The tofu taco, like all tacos at Kogi Truck, come with the following toppings.

* sesame-chili salsa roja
* julienne romaine lettuce and cabbage tossed in Korean chili-soy vinaigrette
* cilantro-green onion-lime relish
* crushed sesame seeds
* sea salt
* garnished with lime wedge, orange wedge and red radish wedge

Check out the colorful pic of the tofu taco and Kogi’s menu at kogibbq.com.

Sophie Monk has a new film out, The Hills Run Red, about the daughter of a horror film director.

At some point during the film, Sophie ends up naked and tied to a bed.

While some actresses would make a body double part of the contract, Sophie didn’t mind going natural for the cams at all.

After all, she still tries to stick to a vegetarian diet, according to celebrityhealthfitness.com.

“You’ve just got to make sure you’re in shape,” she said. “Most women would otherwise. I’ve been offered Playboy, but doing a film where it’s not me, I feel like it’s very different. That’s how I look at it.”

The Hills Run Red is available on DVD.

We’re clueless as to what minute in the film Sophie gets naked.

Sorry.

“It depends on what city I’m in. I love Pure Food & Wine in NYC; Millennium in San Francisco; Sages in Salt Lake City; Sublime in Fort Lauderdale; and in LA, Veggie Grill, Real Food Daily, M Café, and, especially, my own kitchen with lots of family and friends!”

“No matter what city I’m visiting, or where I’m going, I check out happycow.com and healthydiningfinder.com to find the best veg*n restaurants in that area. That’s how I even discovered soy cheese pizza at the rim of Grand Canyon!”

—Marilu Henner, on her favorite places to eat for celebrations, in a series of interviews at lunchboxbunch.com called Veggie Girl Power.

The Kind Diet

All this week, we’re hosting a giveaway and three of our lucky readers will receive a free copy of Alicia Silverstone’s new vegan diet and lifestyle book, The Kind Diet.

Every day until the end of the contest, we’re bringing you a few of Alicia’s thoughts on The Kind Diet, with a reminder to leave a comment to enter to win.

Today Alicia gives her thoughts on more people adopting vegetarian diets, full or part time.

“When I first started this lifestyle it was still being viewed as something extreme or rebellious. But in recent years I feel as if there’s been a shift. As we’re becoming more and more aware of how our food systems are broken (thanks to some great books and documentaries), the idea that adopting a plant-based diet is something that can make us all healthier (both as individuals and as a planet) has really been gaining traction. So, I feel like this is the perfect time for The Kind Diet. The Kind Diet was written with the understanding that people are coming to this from many diff places (meat-eaters who just want really great skin to vegetarians looking to lose weight–to junk-food junkies looking to save the planet) and we need to offer them varying points of entry. Even little steps in the direction of a plant-based diet can be life-changing. And it’s important that people understand that they needn’t be hard on themselves during the course of this journey–we’re all human and we all “slip-up” but have an inspiring direction to head in is a great start.”
