Laguna bound....

Rate this Entry
Hi all!

Busy as usual…. Quick update…

We have had some amazing reviews on the restaurant. Boston globe, twice this month. An almost full page review with pictures. So there has been a waiting list most nights. We are now thinking of opening in a few different areas.

I’ve decided to move back to Laguna Beach since we just keep going back and forth anyway. So we’ll be bi-coastal but mostly in Cal. We’re moving June 1st.

Food network called and wants a demo tape. Exciting times my friends. I’ll keep you posted.

Gotta go pack since I haven’t started yet. Its my first day I’ve had a chance to think about it.

Raw love to you all! Alissa

    Congratulations on all your success, Alissa. I want you to know again how thankful I am that you wanted to share your knowledge of RAW with everyone who wants it. Wow! If you go on the Food Network I'll definitely be getting the extra cable channels.

    Oooh, let's have a contest...like David Letterman did for his home office location! I don't have any WaTacos, but we are the home of sliced bread! Does that get me any winning points?

    Thanks islesgirl!

    Yes, it was a bit of the winter also. Especially for Dennis, he is a little sick of shoveling out our properties!

    There should definitely be a raw show on the Food Network! It is called the "Food" Network, not the "Cooking" Network. This is really exciting!!

    I'm sitting here thinking "God really loves me!!" I've been raw 4 days now and the only channel I watch is Food Network (everyday, all day), but of course it's really defeating the purpose since it's a cooking, non-vegan network. I'm TOTALLY overjoyed to know that you'll be on there soon. Now, I can just watch your show exclusively and still stick to RAW! Congratulations, and thank you for this experience!

    I am so excited you are relocating to California (the land of fruits and nuts)!!!

    I hope you will consider opening a Grezzo's up here in Marin County. Best Wishes!

    Please send a GREAT demo tape!! I love to watch food network but not since I have been eating raw. I mean, why even tempt myself. I love to cook/uncook so now I spend my time making raw recipes. I wish I was creative like some of the others..but I am content to make and try all the wonderful recipes out there. Maybe, you should consider central Florida for a restaurant???? I would love that! Savor your success and good for you!!!

    Northwest Arkansas needs you! Thank you so much for all you have brought to the forefront about raw food! A restaurant here would surely thrive and congrats on the food network spot, hopefully! I can't wait to watch every episode!

    We went to Grezzo the 3rd day into being raw. It was GREAT!!! My husband's 1st comment when we discussed taking the raw vegan diet challenge was,"Where and what are we going to eat when we go to the North End?" So, Grezzo answered that! The night we were there one of the deserts was a cheesecake made of cahews and bananas. It was the best cheesecake we'd ever had. Would you share the recipe?
    Thanks for your dedication to and education of the raw foods way of eating.
