Colm O'Regan: I don’t need my veg to win prizes at the Tate. Sometimes I just want peas
Often restaurant veg is the chef showcasing how to barely cook something and then truss it up in its own leaves as an example to other vegetables who might be getting ideas.
We always do an oooh in a restaurant. Even if the main course is ‘Battered batter.’ There is something so lovely about getting food brought to you. Leave the grubby matter of money to one side. Whether it’s the Tesco Man or Monsieur Le Posh at The White Lotus, it’s an act of kindness.
