OOoo lala...the Monarch and I are in grand old London town right now and went to eat at Chad Sarno’s amazing new Saf Restaurant on Friday night. Wow. It really is a dining treat – like the ‘Pure Food and Wine’ of Europe ;) BEAUTIFUL space, great lighting and décor, classy, shiny, yummy presentation, friendly staff, nice outdoor garden area and a unique menu of raw-markable creations made with the best quality fresh ingredients.
We LOVED the rich tacos dish, for example, which TOTALLY reminded me of the filling ‘Mexican’ meals I used to love in my pre-raw days. We also loved the creative and unusual offerings like a whole ‘smorgasbord’ of different raw ‘cheese’ dishes, a yummy little bowl of some kind of pickled cucumber that came with the sushi, or the fresh edible pansy flowers served with many of the dishes.
The desserts were absolutely superlative, especially the lucuma cookies and melt-in-the-mouth chocolate ganache tart...YUMMMM... It was fun to finally meet Chad Sarno in person too, after years of hearing what a fantastic chef he is (which we can certainly now affirm ;) I love too that they have a little ‘shop’ in the corner of the restaurant, where people can pick up raw treats and ingredients to take away with them. The clientele seemed to range enormously, from super-shiny-looking individuals who looked as if they may have been raw for the last few decades, to many who quite probably may have been having the first all-raw meal of their lives...a great variety...it’s that kind of a place, like Pure Food and Wine, where you can easily take ‘non-raw’ friends/family, without potentially freaking them out too much ;) LOL – the food is so gourmet, they may not even realise it’s ‘raw’, if you don’t tell them... ;) I’ll get the photos from our night there uploaded soon to Flickr I hope... ;)

¾ of a fresh durian and a little raw chocolate (WOH ;)

Juice Glorious Juice
By Angela Stokes
Juice, glorious juice
Fresh, raw and delicious,
Press veggies or fruits,
For medicine that’s delicious
Kale, spinach and cucumber,
‘What next?’ is the question.
Add celery every day
To improve digestion...
Juice, glorious juice
There’s nothing quite like it.
Two green drinks a day,
We suggest you try it.
Just picture green juice on tap,
Re-balancing you,
Oh, juice,
Wonderful juice,
Marvellous juice,
Glorious juice.
Drink glorious juice,
When your stomach’s empty
For best absorption
And chew your juice plenty.
What is it we dream about?
What feels so loving?
Tall pitchers of green juice served
With a grin :)
Juice, glorious juice,
Don’t mind what it looks like:
Green, crimson or puce,
It’s ALL about the enzymes ;)
Just adding in wild greens,
Our senses go reeling.
What else could compare to these
Vibrant feelings?
Juice, glorious juice,
What wouldn’t we give for
THAT extra bit more?
Chlorophyll is the best cure...
Why take multivitamins,
When you could just drink raw juice?
Oh, juice,
Magical juice,
Wonderful juice,
Marvellous juice,
Fabulous juice,
Beautiful juice
GLORIOUS JUICE :)
With love and super-juicy smiles,
Angelalalalalaaaaaaaa. xxx
