The Art of FoodCraving lasagna? No need to blow the diet. Usher in “live lasagna” (made with Brazil nut cheese and zucchini pasta), cooked below 188˚. Offering the best in raw and natural cuisine, options galore will keep even carnivores coming back for more. Why not try unusual smoothie ingredients like nutmilk, raw carob, agave and raw almond butter. Even sugary treats get a makeover, with gluten-free cupcakes and cupcakes. Definitely a guilt-free treat if ever there was one.
Soli OrganicIce cream that does a body—and the world—good, now that’s a novel thought! That’s what Soli Organic promises in its distinction of being Miami’s first and only organic ice cream shop. This extends not only to the cows that are grass-fed and milked free of hormones, but also to the condiments, flavorings and fruits used to create the treats. Additionally, all coffee and chocolate beans used are fair-trade certified. Imagine flavours like dulce de leche, banana walnut, chocolate peanut butter chunk, baked apple pecan and cherry vanilla, a cup full of hand-churned smooth, delectable joy that is good for you. Enough said.
Pizza FusionOrganic ingredients? Check. Wind energy offsets? Check. Delivery in company-owned hybrid cars? Check. Money-back recycling programme? Check. Delicious gourmet pizza? Check. This is the mission of Pizza Fusion, who is “Saving the Earth, one pizza at a time”. In fact, the list of environmental initiatives is almost as long as the menu that includes salad and panini choices, alongside extensive pizza options; from individual personal pizzas, to specialty pies including Bill’s Pizza (named after one of the co-owners), featuring sliced up New York strip, mozzarella, aged parmesan, oregano, tricolour peppers, gorgonzola and red onion.
Fresh CaféWhile they have an endless selection of “solid” food, like wraps and salads, it is nourishment of the liquid-kind that really sets Fresh Café apart. Pick up a Green Bunny at their organic juice bar—Granny Smith apples, celery, carrot and ginger—or a Açai Berry Blast, which blends cranberry juice, blueberries, mango banana and a shot of immune-boosting wonder-food açai pomegranate drink. Other “shots” include organic ground flax, digestive enzymes, and chromium picolinate. |
