A Personal Goal Achieved & So Much More

Almost exactly a year ago I wrote down that it was a goal of mine to visit Pure Food & Wine in New York.  I'd just bought a book called 'Raw Food, Real World' (written by the owners of PFAW) and was so impressed with it that I wanted to go and see what looked like an amazing place.  If any proof was needed about the magic of writing down your goals then this is it:  In a matter of a couple of weeks I am due to go to New York to work with the co-creator of the book and the restaurant, Matthew Kenney, on some very exciting projects.  Matthew has started a new venture called The Plant which is a "4,000 sq ft commissary kitchen and cafe devoted to raw food preparation, education and distribution" and is the "production hub for all the Blue Green Organic Juice Cafes" across New York, supply them with raw food in the morning for supply throughout the day.

I will be there right up until The Fresh Festival in October, where I'm helping Rene Archer and the rest of the team deliver a truly amazing selection of food.  So as you can imagine, I'm very excited about the next few months and what may lie ahead.  I will of course being blogging about as much as I can and will be bringing back (to UK readers) reviews of the best raw food restaurants NYC has to offer.

Congratulations Russell!!! I'm sure you will have a great time and I'll see you in January for a bit of retail therapy! I'll also dust off my ice skates for our trip around Central Park!
