#talronnen

Thanks to @YvesSaintLaRonn, for insisting that I put aside my longstanding anti-vegan sentiments and come to the grand opening of @CrossroadsKitchen at @ResortsWorldLV. I am rather pleased to report that at no time did the thought of spitting out ANY of Chef Tal Ronnen's vegan fare even cross my mind (a first for me with anything plant-based): I even waylaid one of the servers, at one point, just so I could grab another one of the passed Housemade Grilled Italian Sausage Sandwiches (presented on grilled buns with peppers, onions, and Cleveland stadium mustard). The food was so tasty, in fact, that I'm already plotting my return!! Who'd've thunk it!?!?

|| t a l || (Vegan) cheesin’ with Tal Ronnen! This was such a fun experience and worth every penny - I hope he does it again! (And yes, I got to keep the apron!) #masterclass #talronnen #crossroads #wynn #vegan (at Lakeside at Wynn Las Vegas)

Overall, I definitely want to explore LA more, but the drive is intimidating. Next trip will probably be DTLA because we can take the train!

Food brings us together. But beyond food there's the intention we all share. The intention to create better wholesome dishes, to work with wholesome foods, and to educate our culture on plant based cuisine. An art form that works into the better of our culture, our health and our planet. Thank you for a lovely dining experience @basilpark @matthewkenneycuisine @basilpark_farmer @scottwinegard @juiceliana @jugofresh #talronnen (at Basil Park)
