Restaurants in Sydney ??

[Klarissa]

i cant seem to find any raw food Restaurants in Sydney.... does anyone know of any??

[klomasius]

You mean Sydney Australia?

Haha! You're kidding right?

We have NO raw restaurants here in Australia at all!

We are lucky to have some restaurants in a couple of major cities that serve a few raw dishes, but even then they don't have that many, and the one in Melbourne that does either uses maple syrup in their raw cake (not raw) or honey (maybe raw, probably not but not vegan).

If you know of any places ANYWHERE in Aust that have a good selection of raw dishes then LET US KNOW! I'd travel anywhere in Australia for a raw meal out!

[Klarissa]

yes i mean Syd Australia... yet we probably have about 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 billion take away stores..

awww i was hoping there was something out there

[klomasius]

Yep, trillions of takeaway places selling food that makes us sick but no raw places .

But you know what? It's cool, we can be the first wave to start asking health food cafes and restaurants to try out raw foods!

Everywhere I go now, if it at all comes up in conversation, or I can make it, I mention raw foods and raw food products.

I've helped to get raw cacao powder, nibs, cocoa butter and maca into several health food stores here in Melbourne, talked to many places about the raw food movement and how big it is overseas AND how it wont be long till it's big here in Australia. I've also given out lists of helpful raw recipe websites (including RFT) to many of my favourite food places.

And another thing that is helpful, I've talked up raw foods to many people who are also likely to visit these places, all of this hopefully bringing the likelihood of raw foods becoming a part of cafe and restaurant life in Australia nearer and nearer.

And the more people who do the same, the more likely it is!

So.... you could help me!

Also, go to local raw potlucks and help to build these communities as they are a great way to grow the movement.

And don't get disheartened! It's only in the last year that a cafe here in Melbourne has started with the raw food (Invita at Victoria Market). We are making progress!

[Klarissa]

Are there raw potlucks in Sydney.. ??

I work in a health food store and i cant even order anything in, tho my store is supplement based franchise..

[klomasius]

I'm sure there'd be raw potlucks in Sydney!

Go to Raw Pleasure and ask there, there are people from all over Australia there and they'd be able to point you in the right direction.

If you can't get your health food shop to order stuff in, try an actual health food store (not a supplement place ;) ) and see if they can. Let me know if you'd like some info to give them and I'll PM you with it.

Alternately, if you ask at Raw Pleasure, someone might already have sourced where to get various raw products in Sydney.

Alternately, if you're ever down here in Melb, I can show you where to get heaps of stuff, and one of the raw food distributors lives literally a minutes walk from my house! Yay!

hi Klarissa,

my friend and I are about to open a raw food restaurant in Melbourne, The need is there, the awareness is there. Olivia Newton John's cancer centre is a stones throw from the shop we are looking at renting. It will probably be 80/20 raw as I feel people need that time of transition and to be introduced to raw in a way that wont let them feel deprived, but to be excited by the variety of food available
