my nan went to see the dalai lama 10 years ago and she went in some cheap fish n chip shop to buy food and the dalai lama actually came in that exact chip shop to buy food and she spoke to him.

I thought the dalai llama was vegan? maybe he got chips and a pickled onion…mmmm.
He is not vegan, but at various points in his life was vegetarian. After suffering serious ill health in India he was advised to eat meat and fish again on alternate days by his doctors, although he tries to reduce his consumption of meat.
there is a lot of fuss amongst yoghurt weavers about this but he is old enough to be my dad and has been chased around most of Asia by Chinese feds for half a century, which would take a toll on anyones health.
British fish and chip shops are seen as something exotic in Asia but with cultural links to the continent so it would be normal for someone like him to visit the local chippy.
