World Vegetarian Restaurant Month!

Did you know that October is World Vegetarian Restaurant Month? Neither did I, until today. In the spirit of celebrating World Vegetarian Month I am going to highlight some of my favorite vegetarian and Vegan restaurants and why I think they are the cat's pajamas... or even his MEOW! I hope this information makes your mouth water...

One of the my newer favorites here in Los Angeles is Leaf. http://www.leafcuisine.com/. Leaf is special. It isn't just vegetarian, its also raw and vegan. Do not get scared by the word raw. Its not like buying a piece of raw lumber, or worse raw meat~!

The first time M and I walked into Leaf I fell in love. It felt so fresh and smelled amazingly delicious. The restaurant is clean and the staff is very nice and helpful if you should have any questions about eating this special type of food.

I recommend getting the Rawsagna. (Lasagna) It was so delicious and full of flavor, you don't even realize that its not your mom's lasagna. It became my favorite at first bite. Their salads are amazing and the desserts are fresh and sweet. You will leave feeling fulfilled, not overfull. You will feel refreshed and not sluggish. Since Leaf is halfway between my apartment and the beach, M and I find it convenient to stop there on our way to the beach. Ladies: nosh here before going to bare it all in a teeny bikini! Nobody will know you just had a great fulfilling meal full of all the nutrients you can imagine.

Don't knock it until you try it. Even you carnivorous men out there! Its really really delish!
