I don't know how many of you live in California or have been to California, but I went to the most AMAZING vegan/raw food restaurant EVER...all of them are located in the Bay Area and they are going to build one in L.A. soon. It's called Cafe Gratitude. I swear, if I lived around here, I'd go broke there... The vibe is awesome and the food is even better. I left there satisfied, but wanting more! I had a quinoa dish and this DELICIOUS kale and sea veggie salad. The flavors were crisp and clean and light. Perfect for a summer day! Check out their website and if you ever have the chance to go to this place, I HIGHLY recommend it! http://www.withthecurrent.com/cafe.html
Should you ever find yourself in the California redwoods, stop in at the Woodrose cafe in Garberville. Best granola on the planet. Garberville was the Mecca of pot growing 20+ years ago. It's a hip town still. x
