After printing out their handy menu online, and picking up this past Sat. evening,
I am extremely impressed with the quality and flavor of Leaf Cuisine...
The guacamole was quite a treat, along with the flax seed crackers for starters,
and the salads I ordered were "flying falafel" and "mediterranean medley".
I am a vegetarian now for 10 years, but not raw, although I like trying raw food
every once and a while. The reason I decided to write this review is because
I have not tasted better salad greens anywhere in Los Angeles! Every vegetable
and leaf in my salads were super crisp, full of flavor, (they reminded me of
specialty garden grown greens I experienced on the Big Island HI.
The falafel croquettes and the sun-dried tomato croquettes were really
amazing, and the house dressing (sort of miso) made it all come together.
I can recommend this place to anyone who appreciates subtle flavors,
and the freshest ingredients around. What is more amazing, is that
the portions are so big, I have continued to eat on Sun, Mon, and tonight
Tues. with each and every ingredient looking and tasting as fresh as
the day I picked up my order. Isn't that something! Go and treat yourself
to a meal at Leaf Cuisine, you will love it, and it is soooooo good for your body
and health. I will return to try the soups and desserts!
