Vegan and raw food restaurants

 

One of life’s great pleasures is going out to eat and trying new restaurants and dishes. This holds true for raw food and vegan restaurants too! There are, believe it or not, more than 5000 natural foods restaurants in the U.S. alone. Predictably many of these restaurants are in major markets and in college towns. You might not live in an area where you can visit a natural foods restaurant regularly, but if you’re traveling, do some research and see where there might be a natural foods place to visit. Here are a few notable restaurants around the country:

 

Delights of the Garden has gained amazing popularity in Washington, DC, considering that city is a haven of power lunches between lobbyists and the like. It features a cool-looking cafe with raw and cooked vegan favorites.

 

Arnold’s Way is located outside Philadelphia, PA in the Bucks County town of Lansdale. They have a raw café and also have classes in raw foods preparation.

 

Au Lac in Fountain Valley, California serves 7-course raw dinners, although you want to call in advance to give the chefs time to prepare.

 

Café Gratitude has two locations in San Francisco and one in Berkeley.

 

Quntessence in Manhattan features an all raw menu, all organic, salads, fresh juices, soup, guacamole, essene bread, almond shakes, and more.

 

Dining in the Raw in Key West, Florida features macrobiotic, vegan and raw foods.

 

The Organic Garden in Beverly, Massachusetts is a living and raw foods restaurant.

 

Suzanne’s Vegetarian Bistro in Miami, FL has a daily raw soup on its menu.

 

Enzyme Express in Anchorage, Alaska is a raw foods restaurant.

 

Golden Temple in Birmingham, Alabama is a vegetarian restaurant that features a juice bar.

 

These are just a few raw foods restaurants in some likely (and unlikely!) cities. Many cities have magazines with restaurants listed by categories.

why this is not a fad diet?

  Eating raw fruits and vegetables isn’t the new fad diet, or the new South Beach Diet.   Believe it or not, humans have been eating this way long before they were eating processed junky foods.   We didn’t have access to most types of foods.   We were scavengers, picking fruits and eating vegetables were a delicacy.   Nuts were also eaten for protein.   It was either that or starve.   Humans ate these fruits as is, no additives, no cooking.   One and a half million years ago we learned how to cook.   So for a half million years we ate the food raw, as it was intended.   We are the only animals on the planet that cook their food.   Eating meat doubled the caloric intake of man, which made it easier to hunt and have enough energy to do what needs to be done.     Today, we have access to every type of food we want at our fingertips.   We can order Oolong tea (which must be handpicked on cliffs in china) from the inte...

Christmas Food

  Christmas is a time when we think of family get-togethers and abundance. It is memory lane for most of us, enjoying friends, memorable times and good comfort, traditional foods. But the weeks after the holidays are usually weight gains, health problems from too many sweets and food.     Today white sugar, white flour, dairy products, trans and saturated fats, refined cars and excess calories are on the “no-no” list … and with the holiday times it feels as if the cakes, cookies and candies will become obsolete. And we begin to feel deprived and panic stricken. After all, it is a long-time tradition.   One answer is to make some raw food desserts and take them to get-togethers and family meals.

Oh yes … and they are easy to put together.   Jenny Cornbleet has a book out called “Raw Food Made Easy for 1 or 2 People”. In it t...
