Below is a picture from a balcony outside our hotel room. It is a really old small hotel in the James Bay area of Victoria. Lots of older character homes. It is quiet there at night and a close walk to downtown. Look at the beautiful cherry blossoms on the tree outside. They were everywhere. Victoria has some amazing old HUGE trees throughout the city.
I never have to worry about where I am going to get great healthy food when staying in Victoria. The city is loaded with fantastic options!
I ordered and then saw these fantastic looking cookies in a jar and had to have one. So that is what I started with when waiting for my lunch. My boyfriend too 1 bite of the cookie and loved it!! I loved it also - it was THE BEST dehydrated cookie I have every had. Just look at it! What doesn't it have in it. I love crunchy, granola, seedy type cookies and have really missed them since going raw. Well - no more, this was exactly what I was craving and what I love!! Now to find a way to make it just like they did. I am experimenting.
Since I was enjoying it so much and it looked SO DELICIOUS my boyfriend just had to have a bite. Then another bite, then another. GUESS WHAT??? He ended up having lunch there also. Skipping his cooked food restaurant and eating along side me at Cafe Bliss. He ordered the pizza and enjoyed every single bite like I did.
NOW JUST LOOK AT THIS PIZZA!!! The sauce on top - OMG! It was sooo good!! The crust was amazing - better than any cooked food pizza crust I have EVER had. My boyfriend was very impressed and so was I. We met and spoke to the chef. He was very humble but we told him how much we enjoyed the lunch and that we would be back.
Here is my boyfriend with his piece of pizza. He is inspecting a sprout.
At home I usually start my day with a green smoothie so the next morning we went back to Cafe Bliss for a juice. They have a wide variety of fantastic fresh juices. I chose one I usually don't make at home. I cannot remember exactly what was in it but it had beets, carrots and ginger. So Very Delicious! What a great way to start the day. They serve their juices in glass mason jars - glass is so much better than pastic!
