All of the Golden Temple restaurants I have ever been in were operated by the 3HO (Happy, Healthy, Holy) Organization. These folks are NOT "krishnas", they are Sikhs. The restaurants are named after the holiest temple of Sikhism in India, which is also called The Golden Temple. I have always enjoyed having dinner at these restaurants. My remarks aagainst airplane 'vegetarian' meals were somewhat sarcastic. I fly infrequently, but every time I have, the airline has fouled up providing my veg meal, in spite of my following all their rules, like calling to remind them the day before. All the steward(ess) can do is scrape the meat off a standard meal and give me that. Unfortunately, when hte person sitting next to you sees that, they do indeed get a poor impression of vegetarianism. Generally, travelling is indeed the hardest part of being vegetarian. Many restaurants serve NO main dishes that are meatless. BTW, if you are reading this, LC, I tried 4 times to reply by MAIL to your letter, and none seem to have gotten through. Want to send me a path?
