I was frying my usual bacon and eggs Sunday morning breakfast, when my younger son, Jan, wandered into the kitchen. But my wife damped my enthusiasm by pointing out that I hadn’t read the small subtext: ‘Mtofu sausage, beans, vegan bacon and eggs’. I presume that such imitation dishes are to attract meat eaters to the vegetarian or vegan ranks. Next time I go to Ethos, I will have one of the not-pretending plant-based dishes on offer. It was when, on my very first consultancy assignment, I was staying at the Lodhi Hotel in New Delhi, which was reckoned to have the best vegetarian restaurant in the city.
