What do they eat? Salad and tofu? Dear terrestrials, the gastronomic world at the disposal of a vegan is rich and often
enhances creativity and technique in the kitchen. If top chef Davide Scabin decides to marvel both planets, with a twohour completely vegan class, we can’t help but hope to find a spot on the Enterprise. To pair, wines from the Kettmeir
