arrggghhhhh....sorry that happened to you. components of a dish should always be listed on the menu, for obvious reasons. it sucks having to ask "is that dish vegetarian?" all of the time, and being as i like to visit new restaurants, i need more variety than the limited number of vegan and vegan friendly restaurants we have in the city. still, i might just stick to them from now on, after story upon story like yours. i've already resigned myself to not patroning morimoto because they serve foie gras. ugh..
i know... i mean, we asked her which meals were vegan, and she told us which were... and the sushi itself was.... but she declined to tell us about the soy sauce.
she said "oh, they were supposed to bring you out some vegetarian soy sauce" all nonchalant like.
and as for the foie gras.... seriously!!! oy... it's so annoying... people will eat anything to be ritzy. (poor duckies.)
well he has a restaurant down on chestnut around 7th. it's all swankylike... i mean, it's got some neat decor and stuff... and i'm sure people go there to see morimoto, because he pops in from time to time. but i think it's too expensive for the stuff they offer... and it's starting to be in disrepair. especially the ladies room... i don't know about the mens room.
this is the second time i had gone there, and both times it was because a friend of ours is a cooking freak, and he must really like the food. (as well as going to a restaurant started by iron chef morimoto)... now that i think of it... it's totally normal for morimoto to put something so out of place (vegetarianwise speaking) in the soy sauce. they must have had a fish sauce show, and he must have really liked the outcome of the fish soy sauce, and kept doing it.
what next? are we going to have to start asking if fresh broccoli is vegetarian? oy. what's the world coming to?
I can't eat broccoli in chinese places unless the restaurant is vegan. I get sick. Animal must creap in some how. Meat eaters that run restaurants don't care.
Thanks because I was going to go there. But I find that I need to avoid meat places usually because you never know where animal is going to turn up and then I wind up getting sick.
