A top chef has “banned” vegans from his restaurant amid an ugly dispute over a meal that’s spilt over to the internet.
Chef John Mountain took to social media on Tuesday to declare that people who don’t eat meat and other animal products won’t be catered to at his restaurant Fyre in Connolly in Perth’s north.“We thank you for your understanding. Xx.”
The celebrated chef, who has worked with Marco Pierre White, said the argument started when a young woman reached out before visiting the restaurant to ask about vegan options.“It was my only shortfall… I said I would accommodate her, I said we had gnocchi, vegetables… and that was that,” he told The West Australian.
“My only option was the vegetable dish… it was okay but not that filling… and I was shocked to see it was $32,” she wrote in her complaint sent via a direct message.“I think it’s incredibly important nowadays that restaurants can accommodate everyone and to not be able to have actual plant-based meals shows your shortcomings as a chef.
“How very childish. You and all your vegan mates can all go and enjoy your dishes in another venue. You are now banned.”
