Today I achieved a very special goal of mine: I ate at Pure Food and Wine, NYC. it's a Mecca for raw foodies everywhere and to top it off I also went to One Lucky Duck around the corner for a strawberry almond shake. The food was very nice - I had the three course pris fixe lunch menu: a kale Mediterranean salad, zucchini lasagne and a mallomar for desert. I was surprised at how informal the place was and how friendly and relaxed the staff and general atmosphere was. One Lucky Duck was far from the shiny image I had in my head and far more dinky and eclectic. The 'Rich but not that rich' shake I chose was ridiculously expensive but I had to wrestle Baby Nate for the dregs. It was his first ice cream experience; only the best for my Natey.
