Do you happen to know what the vegetarian dinner selection is?

[AFTE Admin]

Sorry,  I do not.  I'm guessing it will be based on what the chef has on hand that day.

[Jeff Goudeau]

Yes, the vegetarian option will be based on what is available that week.  They informed me this is typically what they do to ensure freshness.

[Kristin Durfee]

cool, thanks for the info!

[Charles Clow]

I'm guessing mainly vegetables.

Is there an "all meat" option?

[Jeff Goudeau]

Just sit next to a vegetarian and make sure they get steak, then trade them your vegetables for the steak!
 
Actually, on a serious note the fish was out of this world at the tasting!

ah, if only I didn't already make my selection, I could have had a good racket going

I just saw one of those medical snippets on a television monitor while standing in line at my credit union.  In it, it claimed that those eating a high saturated fat diet, i.e. red meat had a 20% increase in the incurring heart related diseases while those on a low saturated fat diet, i.e. veggie eaters had a 30% increase risk of cancer.  The gist, eat burgers and die of a heart attack or eat stir-fry and get a tumor.  Now you have a life-style option to choose your demise.

Or maybe you should balance those things and die from both!

If you ask nicely, I'll share some of my beef tenderloin with you!
