You like your meat-free sustenance to be the localest, freshest and yummiest.

Take your vegan demands to Live Organic Food Bar where fresh, local, organic food gets a tasty upgrade. This bite sized food spot is a delightful place to grab a nosh whether you regularly practice eating vegan or just dabble part time.

Live is a labour of love and experimentation by raw-chef Jennifer Italiano and her restaurateur brother, Chris Italiano. This super sibling duo have taken Live from its 2002 roots as a niche raw food bar to an internationally acclaimed restaurant. Serving up gourmet options that include gluten and sugar free, raw and cooked items keeps this hotspot hopping.

Indulge without being indulgent with the raw nacho platter with corn chips, tomato salsa, guacamole, jalapeno jelly, and cashew cream with spiced ground walnuts. Stay south of the border and tuck into the piping-hot black bean burrito.

Cool off with some freshly pressed almond milk. Or, pick from ingredients like kale, carrots, pear, coconut water and coriander to create your own designer juice or smoothie. Upgrade to a “super” by requesting any number of add-ons like vitamin C or Milk Thistle. And you’ll find no preservatives, dairy, eggs or animal by-products in any of their servings – just locally sourced plant-based goodness.  

Not only does your food get an upgrade but your health does too.
