Raw Delights to enjoy…

…to fully satisfy our taste buds. Yes, the time has come for me to talk once again about my friend France Droz and her unparalleled raw delights from Saveurs Crues, which are delicious and addictive, and make us want to come back for more. These raw dishes, freshly prepared the same day, are made of seasonal and organic foods supplied by the organic supermarket MagBio, and are thus the perfect illustration of delicious living foods for the benefit of our health and eating pleasure! All these raw dishes are free of dairy, animal protein, gluten or sugar, as well as all the refined and toxic nasties which have become part and parcel of the standard Western diet, thanks to the damaging influence of the food industry.

Raw meals at MagBio on Thursdays and Fridays at noon

France Droz Sept09 LDSince the end of August, France (who is from Quebec but has settled here in Switzerland) is back at the MagBio ovens every Thursday and Friday at noon. Yes, they have ovens for baking bread… But rest assured, France makes no use of them, and no food item that crosses her skilled hands is exposed to heat which would have a damaging effect on precious nutrients. So we can take good care of our body cells, nourish them in depth all the while satisfying our demanding taste buds. France is extremely creative thanks to her culinary skills and she does not forget the need to please crowds and make new raw converts!

So come to MagBio, the organic supermarket in Romanel-sur-Lausanne, just north of Lausanne, on Thursdays or Fridays at noon. France offers a large choice of raw meals to enjoy there or take away. Think of all the other opportunities you have to eat healthily: France also offers home catering services, upon request. Be it for a meal between friends, a cocktail party, a fun snack, a sit-down dinner or buffet, or any kind of celebration, don’t miss this opportunity to please yourself and others whilst enhancing your health, or to impress close ones, friends or colleagues.

Evening Discovery: Learn and Taste

France and I are evolving at a similar rhythm on our raw food journey and we have adopted the same no-nonsense yet engaged approach which allows us to maintain an optimal balance. We are also available, together, to introduce this pure and healthy eating trend to a larger audience. In this combined offer, the conditions of which are to be discussed on a case by case basis, I give an in-depth presentation on the amazing health benefits of eating highly raw and explain easy ways to integrate this into our busy lives, while France brings my talk alive by offering various raw dishes to taste and enjoy — but be warned, tasting is most often than not adopting! We have designed a light version — a discovery cocktail from 5 to 7pm, or a more substantial buffet formula from 7 to 9pm. For more information, contact me here. Think of all your meetings, business get-togethers and other community gatherings to promote a new and original message, very natural and clearly very trendy! In 2009, the Western world is becoming green and organic, and is heading for major and profound value changes. Over-consumption and abuse will finally make way for nature-based balance and health.

News from Simply Raw

I have been very busy of late teaching raw food classes, all three levels, to a growing number of people who are curious and often passionate. This has literally driven me forward and filled me with great hope. By following your demand and input, however, I am late in accomplishing my other projects  (the website, on-line coaching, recipe e-books, etc.) but all of this will come. My apologies to those of you who are still waiting for the fruit crumble recipe which I promised this summer, but that too will come, I promise! I don’t want to publish a recipe without a picture, and I’ve been too busy preparing many dishes for my classes to make this crumble, but I will not forget it! It will come before all the fresh fruit have gone from the local markets!

Next classes

The second Simply Raw Level 3 class on dehydrating taking place this Saturday 26 September is once again full. The first one 10 days ago was a great success — great sharing in an intimate atmosphere with learning of many new useful skills! My next introductory class Simply Raw Level 1 to take place on October 3 is almost full. We are finally confirming the first ever introductory level class in English which will take place on November 14, 2009. A few seats are currently still available so don’t wait too long if you want to get started, as this is the only class in English to take place before next year. To sign up, please contact me here.
