Café Gratitude (Larchmont) – Organic live onion sesame bagel with cashew cream cheese, nori “lox”, tomato, onion, capers and sprouts. This is not your typical vegan restaurant that you probably associate tons of alfalfa sprouts, tempeh, seitan, and other soy “protein” substitutes with. It’s all organic and more about delicious nut cheese, seasonal veggies & fruit, kelp noodles, quinoa, brown rice, with dishes like the zucchini lasagna and my absolute favorite, the polenta cakes with sautéed spinach, mushrooms and basil chiffonade topped with cashew nut cheese.

Cafe Gratitude on Larchmont. I found this little jem on my way home from Yoga at YogaWorks on Larchmont. A friend of mine then told me that this place had items on their menu that were GF and I could probably eat. That’s all I needed to go in and try it. This restaurant is 100% organic vegan and specializes in gourmet raw and cooked cuisines.

I went for dessert at Cafe Gratitude. I really like the place. The vibe is fun and the people are all Hollywood. I get there around 2 pm and stay for a while enjoying the food, people and scene. I got some sort of mushroom tea (with reishi) and raw cocoa.
