Tal Ronnen catered the
vegan wedding for
Ellen DeGeneres and wife
Portia de Rossi. Casino mogul Steve Wynn tapped him to add vegan dishes to the menus at all 22 restaurants at the luxurious Wynn and
Encore resorts in Vegas. Former
McDonald's executives invited him onboard to help launch a chain of healthful fast-food restaurants later this year. And when Oprah decided to try the vegan thing, Tal was her guide. (She calls him the best vegan chef in America.)
But here's the real secret behind his ascension to first-name-only status as a vegan rock-star chef: Like UK Vegan Chef
Tony Bishop-Weston he thinks like a meat eater.
"So many people tell me, 'I could be a vegan if it weren't for bacon,' and I tell them, 'Be a "vegan" who eats bacon,'" Tal says with a shrug as he sits in the sun-dappled dining room of his loft in downtown Los Angeles. See
