Restaurant Review: Paradise Bakery – Utah

paradise bakeryNeed a quick place in American Fork for nutritarian or vegan meal… or in any area dominated by fast food? Paradise Bakery’s Mixed Greens salad is easily customized. First, start with large size, add sunflower seeds and edamame for protein. Have it tossed with red wine vinegar and grab extra lemon slices near drinks for extra pop of flavor. Not a bad alternative… and you’ll fill your stomach with low cal, high nutrient lunch. Much better for the body and mind than most places in the area. Great spot for business lunch, family gatherings and they offer free wifi.

Restaurant Review: Taco Janes – California

taco-janes-san-anselmoTaco Janes in San Anselmo!

I’ve heard great things about Taco Janes in San Anselmo for years, so I was pleased to join my mom her long time BFFs for dinner. While the menu sports plenty of meat lover Mexican dishes, I was delighted to find several veggie based dishes too. I enjoyed the veggie burrito (with optional wheat tortilla). Easy to request no cheese or sour cream for vegan dish. chips and salsa was rockin’ good! Other ladies really enjoyed the salmon on salad and fish tacos. Looked great! This is a great place for family dinner, date night, gathering of friends. If you have opportunity to meet the restaurant owner Matthew, take the chance to ask him about his photography on the walls – he has an eye for capturing Cuban culture in photography.

Loved to connect with coaching clients during breakfast! Delish orange french toast to start a day of meetings in Silicon Valley and Easy Bay. Perfect place for a business meeting, or casual gathering.
