Earth To Table

I have recently started a clean eating diet. Not that what I was eating before was THAT bad, but there were definite improvements that I could make. Eating healthy meals at home or preparing healthy meals for the office isn't the issue, it 's more what I eat when I go out. This blog is evidence of my love for food, so I find it extremely difficult to choose clean meals that actually taste good when at a restaurant or cafe.

That is, until I cam across 'Earth to Table'.

Nestled on the busy Bronte Rd in Bondi is this small, organic and vegan cafe that absolutely blew me away for the following reasons:
1. I am vegetarian so the fact that they served vegan food meant that I could choose anything I wanted from the menu (WINNING!)
2. They use organic and raw ingredients in their cooking which meant that I was able to indulge in whatever I wanted (including desserts) - guilt free!

Luckily for my friend and I, the line wasn't too long when we arrived and as such, didnt have to wait too long to be seated. This was probably a good thing given the appetite that we were building, just by  looking at all the amazing food flying out of the kitchen and the decadent desserts in the shop front display.

After being seated, we spent a good amount of time browsing the menu, trying to choose what to eat. So many choices that each sounded so delicious! After much discussion, we decided to order the pasta with asparagus, baby peas and zuchini, the roasted mixed vegetables with tomato and quinoa bread, and the banana creme pie.

Given that all the food was organic and fresh, all of the dishes were served cold. Although the pasta was great as a cold dish, I felt as though the roasted mixed vegetables would have been better if the dish was served hot. The banana creme pie though...O.M.G. I would honestly go back to this cafe just to eat their dessers over and over again. How can something that is sugar free, dairy free and gluten free taste so good?!

The only downside to our experience at this cafe was the amount of time that we had to wait between our main meals and dessert. It seemed as though all the waiters that walked passed us did not see us sitting there waiting, and after a substantial amount of time, my friend had to go and let the waiters know that we were still waiting on our dish.

All in all, it was a great meal. I would definitely go back to try the other items on the menu, and have spoken very highly of this cafe to many of my friends. To top this day off, my friend and I spent the rest of the afternoon completing the Bondi to Bronte coastal walk - an activity I encourage everyone to do if they are going to be in the area.

For this cafe, I score 8/10
