Wrap Up: PACHAMAMA RAW CAFE!

The Pachamama Raw Cafe was a great success! A big hug and thank you to all those who came out yesterday to eat and hang out at the Peña Pachamama Cultural Center. The food was extraordinarily good! This week we hope to add our very own raw-organic living kale chips which are becoming one of our most popular foods here! A huge thank you to John Vandenberg & Erica Botz for organizing this wonderful brunch experience.

Due to the popularity and success of the brunch we're going to open brunch for this Saturday and Sunday (February 13th and 14th)! So you can kick-start your Valentine's weekend with a healthy and inspirational meal at the Pachamama Raw Cafe.

Entrees in the pictures above:
Nori Rolls: mixed veggies and jicama-pine nut rice wrapped in a raw nori, served with miso soup (cashew-based, tofu optional).
Tacos: two handmade tacos filled with a sunflower-brazil nut breakfast scramble and served with cabbage slaw.
Other great drinks/dishes: Mango Lassi, Carrot Beet Juice, Young Coconut Water, Mediterranean Plate, Sweet Crepes, Spanish Mushroom Tart, Macarrons, Flan.

Just like the raw living food we serve, the menu will evolve and change too! You'll be pleasantly surprised.

Insider information:
- the world famous group Ancient Future will be performing at the Sunday Brunch on the first Sunday of March!
- for some brunches we'll be serving up small samplings of different raw dish ideas.
