The people have spoken! The Orlando Sentinel Foodie Awards just came out and we are totally jazzed that we were voted Best Vegetarian by it's readers as well as the critic, Scott Joseph. Here's what he had to say:

It would have been easy to go back to Woodlands or Udipi, both vegetarian restaurants, but I'm happy to join you in recognizing this little startup that puts an emphasis on the Communitea. The selections, which include some vegan entrees, are limited, but owner Julie Norris, a charter member of Orlando's nascent slow-food movement, places importance on buying from local purveyors. Some* of it is organic, but in the "funky, relaxed atmosphere" you probably won't notice**.

*"some" really should say "almost everything" as over 95% of our ingredients are organic.

**actually, we hope you DO notice our food is organic, since the pure flavor burst of organic food is why we consistently win best vegetarian in the Weekly, the Sentinel & recently, best FOOD (not just veggy) at Taste of Thornton Park.

If you feel like it, share your thoughts with Mr Joseph on why you like your food without toxic chemicals. He can be reached at sjoseph@orlandosentinel.com or 407-420-5514
