    Default What about Houston?

    Are there any RAW restaurants in Houston, TX?

    Sorry Jane - Houston seems to prefer Bar-B-Q's and beef ... i think your best bet is the Co-op on taft street (near montrose in the inner loop), it's open on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Also there are a few whole foods in town, and they tend to have nice salad bars. I think that may be it for the options - though I live in pittsburgh now, I live there for quite a while. There is also a market called Sandy's Market that I found out about right before I moved away, I didn't have a chance to check it out, but i hear good things. Also in Montrose you can get some nice salads at Empire Cafe, and at Cafe Brasil ... I hope you find some nice treats.

    jane,

    it is true that you can get some pre-made raw goodies (kookies and krackers) at the co-op on Taft Street. They also have raw agave and it is the only place in Houston (that i know of) to get raw carob (versus roasted). Also, in the coffee shop (same location) they also often carry some raw desserts (pies) and on wednesdays (and tues nights) they have a raw meal special (salad, entree and dessert).

    also, field of greens (a restaurant on west alabama (just across from mission burritos and down the block from Whole Foods-Kirby)) has at least one raw dish.

    other than that, there are a couple of raw potlucks in the area. at the same Taft Street Coffeehouse location, there are two monthly potlucks; one on the 2nd wednesday of the month and the other on the 4th thursday of the month. it starts around 6:30pm (ish). the other potluck that i know of is at the last organic outpost. these are held on sunday evenings. i have never been but i hear they are great. i would check their website just to make sure b/c i think they were on a brief hiatus.

    hope this helps.
