Rawfood home-restaurants, do these exist?

[LightLover]

I know about rawfood restaurants

I am wondering if there are also rawfood home restaurants, where someone
invites groups/people at home to eat a defined rawmenu?

LL :D

I believe that if they do exist in your area, you will have a hard time finding one unless you are specifically invited. They can't exactly advertise in the phone book and they wouldn't call themselves a "restaurant".
Your best bet is probably to attend some raw potlucks or get-togethers in your area, and see what the word on the street is. If you can't find one, you could start one!

Here in New England, there are monthly potluck dinners.

[LightLover]

AAAh, yes , we have potlucks here, a few :) . But you have to bring your own food. with home-restaurant I mean:

* the guests don't bring their own food;
* there is only 1 menu

LL :rolleyes:

Lightlover..that is so funny. I was thinking about possible ways of preparing raw food for other people without having a formal restaurant. If you are looking for somewhere to go for Raw food, I would check with healthfood stores to see if any others in your area are Raw..post a notice on a bulletin board, if they have one. And, if you are interested in being the "host," also begin with the HFS or any vegetarian society in the area.

I have spoken with people at my local HFS's and am planning on beginning Potlucks, and maybe more, in the summer, after my semester (and my fast) is over.

Good Luck to you!!

:D

Funny Elizabeth.., but I see myself not as the host, more
as a guest/cliënt, I like more the role of thinking with and stimulating
people which are already busy with these kind of things.
With the fresh look of the outsider and the targetgroup.

And also i was just curious if it exists..

good luck!

I would love to be either guest or host...maybe take turns.. :-) Oh..I do need to either move to where there are raw fooders or "convert" by example, some of the folk around here....

Good luck to you, too!:D

I think as long as you didn't call yourself a "restaurant" and people didn't pay for the food, it would be ok....

I've been thinking about these sort of issues a lot lately myself.

I wanted to see if I could give out raw food samples at a health food store here in town and talk to people about raw food but my fiance thinks I'll need some sort of licence to do it... and you can't just go and feed people stuff without some sort of legality to it I guess.

*shrug*

anyway, sorry to get off topic kinda. :)

What I forget to say is that there are not-raw homerestaurants in Amsterdam.

Don't know exactly if their description is restaurant, but people will/have to pay for a standardmenu . But it is not raw..:o

There was one in Santa Monica for awhile. I think people paid $12 for the meal. Don't know if it's still going on or not.
