Just interviewed with Joel Reese From Leonesse Cellars for our up coming "Got Vegan" wine dinner. I will have photos to follow. Just wanted the Animal Rights Groups who have been camping out in front of the restaurant, that we don't need meat to be a world class restaurant.

Some of the food is there but not everything.

Whole Fish, Seaweed Salad, Shrimp Fire Fly.
