In honor of Vegetarian Awareness Month, the popular restaurant chain the Hard Rock Cafe is introducing a meatless menu for all of October. With many customers -- especially Millennials -- foregoing meat for veggie-heavy dishes, the new menu demonstrates how restaurants can experiment with vegetarian and vegan offerings.
The Hard Rock Cafe's meatless menu will be available from the start of October until Sunday, November 13th. The chain will offer a wide variety of meat-free dishes, that range from updated versions of existing menu items to entirely new entrees. Some standout dishes include the Grilled Ratatouille Wrap, the Pico de Gallo Quinoa Arugula Salad and Cauliflower 'Wings.' The chain is even offering vegetable-based cocktails to complement the new dishes, including the Greek-yogurt infused Very Veggie 'Tini and the alcohol-free Wascally Wabbit.
