Vegetarian Star

Bill Clinton recently attended a fundraiser at a private residence hosted by Shelley Rubin.

Clinton’s personal menu for the event was catered by Rich Landau of V-Edge, a vegan, vegetable restaurant in the Philadelphia area.

“Stephen Starr called me last week and asked if I would be interested in doing the vegan part of the event,” Landau told Eater. “I had no idea this was coming, but it was truly an honor.”

Detroit Lions and fans have one more vegetarian option to chew down on at halftime.

Ford Field has invited Detroit restaurant Slows BBQ to the Lions’ home turf to offer several of its gourmet sandwiches that will be prepared fresh at its own concession stand.

BBQ still means chicken, pork and brisket–especially in the midwest–but Slows isn’t slow at all when it comes to knowing Lions have veggie fans in the audience.

Allows us to introduce you to “The Genius.”

Billy Corgan opened his long-awaited tea cafe in Highland Park, a suburb of Chicago, IL, a little over a week ago.

Opening day featured free tea and performances from the Smashing Pumpkins band member. But Corgan warned that, “If people come in to stalk me I won’t hang out because I don’t want to disrupt the customers.”

So Vegetarian Star stopped by a few days later to avoid such a disruption and instead stalk the vegan desserts.

There were a total of about six on the menu and the big slice of vegan chocolate cake with an equally vegan vanilla frosting had the biggest celebrity factor. The texture of the cake itself was extremely light and airy and the portion was well worth the $5 for the slice.

Billy Corgan opened his tea shop in Chicago today. Madame ZuZu’s is said to be a spot for all ages to enjoy good drinks, music, art and live performances.

Corgan interviewed with Gothamist when the subject of Madame Zuzu’s vegan food came up.

Here are a few highlights from the interview.

I think I read that you were only doing vegan food there?
Vegan dessert. Sugar-free vegan dessert.

Are you a vegan?
No, I really want to be but I’m also anemic so it’s really difficult for me to be vegan. I just get so weary.

Food sculptor Paul Baker was commissioned by the Beefeater Grill UK restaurant chain to recreate the Beatles’ famous Abbey Road cover. Ironically, the chain’s beefy name didn’t prevent Baker from keeping vegetarian Paul McCartney‘s ideals in mind. While the rest of the album is crafted from breakfast foods like sausage and bacon, Baker ensured McCartney was made of mushrooms.

Madame Zuzu’s will welcome all ages on Thursday, September 13 at 8:00 a.m., serving as a “social hub for the community, blending tea drinkers with the arts,” states Broadway World.

“I’m a tea guy and living in Highland Park since 2003, I’ve always wanted to open a salon like this for everyone to enjoy,” describes Corgan. “This is a place with no age boundaries. We hope to attract everyone from young students to seniors. With a blend of music, photo galleries, art displays and speakers, I think Madame ZuZu’s offers something for everyone.”

Doesn’t look like she’ll be eating the hot dog named after her at Pink’s Hollywood anytime soon.

Rumor has it she’d rather have it removed from the menu entirely.
