    That's so exciting! Now you Austinites have the Whole Foods raw bar, The Daily Juice Cafe and Borboleta! I am pretty jealous--I don't think we have even one raw restaurant in Cleveland. I might have to visit Austin more often! :)

    I went to the Whole Foods Live Food bar a few years ago. Not the biggest fan.

    Have you been wendilou?
  • Wendilou · 6 months ago
    Yes! ;) I was there this year. We had a really good carrot/tomato soup, some curried sprouted lentil salad and curried cauliflower. All very good! Maybe they've improved since the last time you were there? I think my mom posted some pics recently...let's see if I can find them..

    Love the name. Now I'm going to have to go back to Austin again just to try it! :)

    Thanks for the scoop, Dhrumil! I adore Austin and this new raw hotspot makes the city that much more appealing! Can't wait to check it out. Virginia looks like the dark-locked Sarma of the South!

    Talk about small world. I just stumbled upon your site the other day. I come back and find a post about a restaurant that I read a review about two seconds ago written by the owner of the local organic grocery delivery company who supplies Borboleta (and myself) with delicious veggies! Definitely have to try this place out soon.
