Raw Vegan Restaurant Opening in Toronto on Thursday

This Thursday, Toronto will be home to a new vegan restaurant emphasizing local, organic, and healthful foods. Feel Good Guru, located in the city’s popular dining district Queen Street West, will feature plant-based meals devoid of genetically modified organisms and chemicals, with some of its produce sourced directly from its on-site indoor grower and backyard garden. Menu items include nutrient-rich juices, raw entrées including burgers, pizza, and burritos, and dairy-free desserts such as Green Tea Cheesecake and cobbler. The restaurant is the brainchild of Moira Nordholt, an author and self-taught vegan chef who founded the first vegetarian restaurant in Banff, Canada in 1994.
