One Lucky Duck Raw Vegan

We ate lunch at One Lucky Duck Chelsea Market on Sunday. Had the Spicy Thai Lettuce Wraps (delish!) & Spicy Sesame Salad (YUM!), chocolate ganache tart & a raw lemon bar. All food is raw, organic, vegan. The desserts are very rich and the prices are very very rich too but all was incredibly delicious and held our appetites for hours. The main restaurant is  Pure Food and Wine , also raw organic vegan. Looking forward to eating there some day.

New Chips and Crisps!!

Just back from vacationing in Colorado, Boulder area. Lots of great restaurants that are veggie-friendly if not completely veg. More on eating out in Boulder in another post. Wanted to tell you about two new delicious gluten free dairy free chip-like crackers. Myrna's  Skinny Crisps  which are baked in Boulder, Colorado, are wonderful crackers made from almonds, chickpea flour, flax, and spices. We tried the seeded ones which have fennel seeds in addition to white and black sesame, and the cinnamon crisps taste like cinnamon grahams!!! If you live in Boulder, you're lucky, they are in lots of stores. If you are somewhere else, ask your local market to get these in....they won't be able to keep them on the shelves.

Brads Raw Chips is another new cracker I've found recently. They come in many flavors and are gluten and dairy free with very simple ingredients: flax seeds, sprouted buckwheat groats, vegetables, and other flavors. 100% raw. They are local to the Philadelphia area and are showing up at farmer's markets and natural foods markets. Very tasty.

More on eating in Boulder and Denver soon!
