Today I had lunch with my brilliant publicist, Seth Grugle, at RAW in Santa Monica - a fantastic restaurant that changed my life when I first dined here a few years back.
Why raw food? Check out this excerpt from the restaurant's official website ...
The reason you feel good after you eat at Juliano’s raw is because you’re (it’s) living! If pills, needles, knives & radiation make healthy people sick, then how can it make sick people healthy? Are you hooked on glue & bleach?… pasta bread rice & tofu cooked four times in different factories, packaged & boxed & transported each time… responsible for 85% of landfill trash! Juliano’s food comes straight from the garden to your plate. Never exposed to heated metals or other poisons or factories. Our food creates life, not trash! All food at Juliano’s raw is made from only select fruits, roots, leaves, nuts, & seeds! Vanilla bean from Africa, Nama Shoyu from a 1000 year old Japanese company, Celtic sea salt, 16 different varieties of Seaweed from Alaska & Japan, really alive 70 F degrees Ascolana gold organic olive oil.
If you haven't dined there yet, GO NOW! I recommend the cheesy kelp pasta (it tastes like you're eating in Technicolor!) and their trademark lasagna.
