Raw food has come a long way since that episode of Sex and the City in
which the girls sipped wheatgrass juice in disgust.
OrganicLives takes the philosophy to new culinary heights, with a
menu even devout carnivores like me would enjoy plus a new downtown
location. The vegan sushi ($7) is scrumptious, with fish replaced by
sprouted pecan and walnuts.
The Pad Thai ($15) is nothing if not inventive, with young coconut meat
and kelp replacing the traditional noodles. Guilt-free desserts? Yes,
all the yummy raw desserts like The OMG Coconut Cream Pie ($7) and
bite-sized macaroons ($1.50) are made without the aid of sugar, and,
believe me, you wont even notice. Anya Georgijevic
