For the carnivores or omnivores amongst us, there is a certain stigma to the word vegetarian. The feeling defies logic. It is irrational. But it is real. Vegetarian is akin to scientologist. Most restaurants now feel pressured to have at least one vegetarian dish on their menus. However, these are mostly ill-conceived and embarrassing affairs that look dowdy compared with the bravura exuded by the dishes based around flesh. We are not vegetarians. However we often eat meals without meat. Such as tonight. There is a very rich home-made chicken stock in the polenta, so a vegan would not approved. But the broccoli, capsicum, beans and zucchini on the polenta make for a filling and satisfying meal. Seriously, I did not miss the meat or bird or fish. Promise. No, really. Honestly. Scout's honour.
