Caterer...ugh.?!
Hi, I'm a vegetarian, no meat!. lol anyway…I've been invited to a swanky get-together at my school, and it's being catered!. The reason!? I got one of the highest GPA's!. There's like 3 from each grade going!. Anyway, it's catered, but I already said that!. Unfortunately, it's being catered by this restaurant that like ONLY has meat…I hate to hurt feelings by not eating, but if I don't want to get in a discussion or put someone out of the way to fix me something else if I tell them I don't eat meat!. What do I do!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Well, I just went out to dinner to a place with literally NO vegetarian options, even the salads and side dishes (contained anchovies, chicken broth, etc)!. Therefore, I politely asked the waiter to ask the chef if it would be possible to make a quick pasta (with no meat obviously) dish!. The chef was very accomodating, and my dish was delicious!.
HOWEVER, since you know that the resturaunt doesn't serve much or anything to your needs, I would suggest calling ahead of time and letting them know that this is a very important event to you, but unfortunatly none of the food on the menu meets your diet, and politely ask for something simple and meatless instead!. Politeness is the key, and often, chefs really like challenges! It's fun for them! Good luck, and congratulations!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Eat before you go, first of all- you'll still be able to drink any liquid you like once you get there!.
If anyone asks you why you aren't eating, politely explain that you don't eat meat and leave it at that!.
It really isn't any of their business, though :)Www@FoodAQ@Com
