Revitalive in Newburyport, MA is Phenomenal

Written by Max Goldberg on January 14, 2013. Follow Max on Twitter: @livingmaxwell.

Last week, I was in Boston and took a trip about an hour north to go check out an organic restaurant called Revitalive.

While I hadn’t been to the restaurant before, I have ordered their pressed organic juice in the past and wrote about them in December. I was incredibly impressed that they use sprouts in their juices, something that very few people do.

As far as an organic restaurant goes, this place is outstanding. The two women who own and operate Revitalive, both of whom trained at The Ann Wigmore Institute in Puerto Rico, know what they are doing. Period.

Here are a few things that I had for lunch. Read More »

Dr. Andrew Weil’s True Food Kitchen was Very Impressive

Written by Max Goldberg on November 24, 2012. Follow Max on Twitter: @livingmaxwell.

For Thanksgiving, I was in Denver with my family and stopped by the newly opened True Food Kitchen, which is partially owned by Dr. Andrew Weil.

We went there twice for lunch, and each time it was a 30-40 minute wait. After eating at True Food Kitchen, I understood why.

The food and drinks were excellent, the service was outstanding, and the menu was wide and varied.

In terms of organic, they said that any item they served that was on the Dirty Dozen List was organic but other than that, they couldn’t guarantee it.

Yet, when I went through individual items with the waitress at the table about what was organic and what was not organic, it seemed that almost everything was organic. Or, at least what I had was.

Here are a few things that I ordered. Read More »

Hu Kitchen in NYC is a Total Winner

Written by Max Goldberg on October 26, 2012. Follow Max on Twitter: @livingmaxwell.

A brand new restaurant opened up in New York City called Hu Kitchen, and I am HUGE fan.

As Founder/CEO Jordan Brown explains in my interview above, Hu Kitchen represents “food for humans”, and the philosophy is about serving unprocessed, non-GMO food in a way that people have been eating for a long, long time.

Aside from the fact that it is just a short walk from where I live and work in NYC, there are several things that I love about Hu Kitchen.

1) The organic food is fresh and great tasting, and the diverse menu appeals to both vegetarians and non-vegetarians.

2) Hu Kitchen has something very unique and completely innovative called a Mashbar. Read More »

Chelsea’s Table is a Great Addition to the NYC Organic Restaurant Scene

Written by Max Goldberg on July 23, 2012. Follow Max on Twitter: @livingmaxwell.

In New York City, we are incredibly lucky to have many, many great organic restaurants.

Whether you want raw, vegan, vegetarian, farm-to-table, Latin-infused or Italian, there seems to be something for everyone.

Yet if you’re looking for an organic restaurant that serves simple American classics – soups, salads, sandwiches and burgers – and without table service, it is not that easy to find.

And that’s one of the reasons that Chelsea’s Table in Manhattan is such a welcome addition to the organic restaurant scene here. Read More »
