This weekend, I got to experience a real treat. I had lunch at Green Wave Cafe, in Plantation, Florida. Now I am not necessarily a raw food person. I'm not even a vegan. But I must say, if I could prepare raw foods like they do at Green Wave Cafe, I would be.
It was voted the Best Raw Food Restaurant 2010 by the New Times. However, it's not easy to find. It's not big. It's not fancy. It's not cheap. But, when you eat raw, vegan, organic food, you just feel good. I had every color on my plate and a smile on my face. I tasted the black bean soup, the creamy asparagus soup, the burrito and the open-faced hummus sandwich. Neither of them looked at all like I expected. There were lots of veggies and sprouts and beans, and I didn't even know how to pick it up. What a delicious mess it was.
After all of that nutritious yumminess, I decided to order the chocolate banana pie. Wow!!! It is so, so good! I don't want to spend a lot of my blog time talking about local spots, but Green Wave Cafe earned it. Go there and eat a lot. You'll thank me later. I hear they have raw food preparation classes. I have a strong suspicion that I'll be in one before long.
