Dennis from Bangkok Thai provided the following comments:

" If possible could I please request a link to our homepage. You can link up either through bangkokthai.com or through our new site meatlessmondays.com. The Meatless Mondays? site is new, because I have finally had some interest from some other restaurants throughout the country who are interested in offering a true vegetarian and vegan alternative. This is, as you understand, a serious issue in the restaurant scene. Either you are faced with a small number of choices or something that is not really vegetarian, such as [some] Vietnamese food with beef broth, fish sauce, and oyster sauce. Check is out sometime their idea of vegetarian is something without big chunks of meat. I had to experiment with the recipes to get soemthing that was legitimately vegetarian and still tasted authentic.

I have been out trying to get other restaurants to try an alternative menu and a resource day with promotional discount. Finally there is some interest from some restaurants in Washington DC. We are conferring on the alterations to their present recipes, dealing with preparation issues. (Cutting Boards must be segregated, separate fryer for vegetarian, separate steamers and blanchers must be used) as well as the most important issue of employee training. They hope to be able to launch their own Meatless Mondays? by the winter season.

Thank you for your interest in informing the public about vegetarian restaurants. By the way NO coupon is required for Meatless Mondays? and the price is still $5.99 for Lunch Entrees and $6.99 for Dinner Entrees for dine in. The Two for Tuesdays is a promotion keyed to X96 and the Freeloader card. The free Freeloader card which can be picked up at X96 on West Temple at Arrow Press Square is required but there arer also other advertisers with great offers for Freeloader card holders.
