Cafe
Ambrosia
2501 Fairview Ave. E. | ph: (206) 325.7111
At first glance, Café Ambrosia seems an unlikely venue for a vegetarian restaurant. With its elegant tablesettings and
Lake Union waterfront location, the ambiance here is decidedly high-brow. However, although outwardly far removed from the earthiness usually
associated with vegetarian cuisine, Café Ambrosia does share a dedication to organic farming and sustainable agricultural methods. In
fact, everything on the rotating, international menu - from the wine list to the desserts - uses fresh, organic ingredients. The restaurant's
dedication to healthful cuisine is not only reflected on the menu, but on the event calendar. With quarterly cooking classes, nutrition seminars
that include four-course gourmet dinners, and celebrity chef nights, Café Ambrosia is proof that eating vegetarian does not mean sacrificing
taste and style. |

Gravity Bar
415 Broadway E. [ Capitol Hill ]| ph: (206) 325-7186
With sleek, industrial decor and a menu that boasts fresh, internationally flavored vegan and vegetarian cuisine, the Gravity
Bar puts a modern spin on healthful eating. Entrees include such filling dishes as the Hi-Protein Vegan Burger - an onion and mushroom flavored
grain vegi-burger that is topped with barbecue sauce, tomato, and avocado, and served on an herb and onion bun - as well as soups, wraps, sandwiches,
and salads. However, the heart of the Gravity Bar resides in its juice menu -- a substantial listing of fruit and vegetable concoctions that
furnish mega-doses of vitamins and claim to remedy a variety of ailments (including the common hangover). |

Pioneer
Organics
901 NW 49th St. | ph: (206) 632-3424
Pioneer Organics has elevated the art of vegetable eating to a new level. Sign up for their home delivery service and every week
(or every other week, if you prefer) a box of 14 to 16 organic fruits and vegetables will arrive on your doorstep, complete with several suggested
recipes. And, the selection of produce rotates, making each new box a new culinary adventure. The boxes come in three different sizes, and the
contents of the weeks' box are posted on-line prior to delivery. In addition to the usual boxes, Pioneer Organics also delivers Juicing Variety
boxes and a Gardener's Box (which has a selection of goodies to complement a backyard garden). And, because veggies can be a touchy subject,
finicky eaters are allowed to have up to three permanent box exceptions, that will automatically be replaced with produce of equal value. To
complement your veggies, Pioneer Organics also offers organic bread delivery, and a selection of healthy grocery items, such as soy milk, organic
eggs, and recycled goods. |
