Vegetarian Star

Steve Wynn‘s switch to a vegan diet has rubbed off on his employees, his restaurants and even his will. Now it’s rubbing off on a world class wine and food festival in Las Vegas, Vegas Uncork’d.

On May 7, Wynn Las Vegas will host a vegan cooking course, Viva Las Vegan, as part of the festival by Bon Appétit. Vegan chef and author of The Conscious Cook, Tal Ronnen, will co-host the event.

As reported earlier, vegan cookbook author and chef Tal Ronnen joined the chefs at Wynn Las Vegas and Encore casino and hotel restaurants, revamping the menus to make them very veggie heavy.

Officials from Wynn have shared descriptions of what some of the entrees Ronnen helped add to an already vegan-friendly menu, thanks to Steve Wynn‘s decision to go vegan. Here’s a sample of the reward you can get from the kitchens of Lakeside Grill, SW Steakhouse, Sinatra and more, even if you lose at the slot machine.

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.

“The notion that you need animal food as protein is one of the great conspiracies of bullshit by the government. Did we not all grow up saying we had to have four glasses of whole milk a day for healthy bones? It’s ridiculous. It’s liquid cholesterol.”

—Steve Wynn, entrepreneur behind the famous Las Vegas Wynn Casinos who was rumored to have turned vegan weeks ago. If there was any doubt about the rumor, it’s definitely official–Wynn’s vegan and is talking all about it at Las Vegas Weekly, from putting vegan items on his restaurant menus to how going vegan lowered his cholesterol to the DVD he distributed to all his employees that made him stop eating meat the moment he watched it, Eating.
