Its restaurant week time again in RVA. Dine for a cause!
While perusing the menus, I was struck by how potentially difficult it is for vegetarians to really get into this whole event. A quick tabulation (of menus only, the restaurant may be more accomodating) showed rather slim pickings for the non-meat/fish eaters out there. 8 out of the 30 restaurants participating had no possibility for a vegetarian to construct a 3 course dinner...20 had one entree option that could enable putting together one (mostly variants on a theme). 2 had more than 1; but, of this pair, one was a small plates restaurant that could result in only one possible permutation.
Caveat - This is just a random observation and not intended to make a broader point especially in consideration of the parametric constraints in this enterprise. Also, in all likelihood, the market size may be somewhat limited.
