Vegetarian Star

Not that we are encouraging anyone to gawk at Heather Mills‘ chest, but if you look closely at the shirt she’s wearing in this picture, you’ll see the phrase, “Vegan” and “No body gets hurt.”

Heather wore this lovely piece of fashion recently while on site at her new vegan restaurant, currently the old Big Fish cafe, near her home in the UK.

So not everyone is excited that Heather Mills bought Big Fish Cafe, took the fish off the menu, fired the old employees, and plans to turn it into a vegan restaurant.

From a UK Guardian article titled, “How to be…A celebrity restaurateur”:

“First, remind everyone of the famously vegan status of your famous ex-husband’s beloved first wife. Next, buy up a local fishy concern and announce your intention to remove fish from the menu entirely. Get some nice press shots done of you in chef whites and make some grand pronouncements about how this will be the first in an international chain of vegan splendour. Finally, relax in the knowledge that no one eats in a restaurant merely sponsored by a non-famous civilian dum-di-dum with a piffling passion for food but with no actual history for paparazzi-titillating behaviour. Smile gamely when asked if you intend to throw a glass of water over the heads of hostile food critics.”

Safe to say the UK Guardian isn’t cheering for Heather’s new unfishy restaurant. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. But we gotta check the Guardian on their facts. Linda McCartney was vegetarian, not vegan.

The long awaited Heather Mills’ food line may have just arrived.

Paul McCartney’s ex wife has purchased a popular fish restaurant near her home in East Sussex, Big Fish Cafe, and is turning it into a vegan restaurant.

The eatery is thought to be the first in a worldwide chain she has talked about starting for some time.

Heather had dined at Big Fish Cafe in the past with daughter Beatrice, and even while she was still married to Paul, where they would have veggie breakfasts with soya milk tea, according to former owner Nick Short.

Short claims Mills bought the place for less than what was originally agreed, which was blamed on the current credit crunch.

“I have been well and truly worked over by Heather,” he told the UK Daily Mail.

One more sour flavor to add to the tartar sauce: Heather doesn’t have plans to hire the two full time and four part time staff, so Short was forced to lay them off.

Kudos to Heather for getting her vegan restaurant off the ground. But we have to say, in this economy, couldn’t she have shown some veggie love and kept the workers already there. After all, what better way to spread the veg news than to teach an old cook some new vegan tricks?
