Victoria Mosina
Viktoria has been in the restaurant business for 10 years. During this time she worked in some of the best restaurants in Russia, and in 2019 she was on the Sabaka.ru shortlist for “The Best Chef of the Year”.
„You work in a restaurant, and sooner or later people on plant-based diets will start visiting it. They may not show up every day, but at some point, they will and ask for a salad without cheese or a main course without some of the ingredients. You will have to distort your initial dish, even though you know you can never remove anything from it if you want to keep the taste complete. You can’t just come to a restaurant and say, “Make me this dish but without this and that.” What you can do right now is prevent this situation and save yourself a lot of stress by simply adding one, two, or three plant-based dishes to the menu. It’s enough. Then, when you plant-based guests appear, you’ll be able to serve then a proper meal. You won’t have to remove anything from it or say you have nothing for them. This can solve a lot of problems.”
