Karyn Calabrese’s menu is 100% organic, 100% vegan and 100% raw (that is, uncooked), so you probably have to be a vegan raw-foodist to truly appreciate what she’s doing. But some dishes taste good no matter what your eating habits are. A starter of raw “nachos” gets things started on the right foot, and the “seaweed dim sum,” a dumplingesque appetizer, is filled with a creamy mixture of avocado and kalamata olives. Grab all your fancy, organic, meatless needs at the adjacent market.
