RAW offers 100% plant based, vegan food items and every dish is promised to be extremely healthy. Nothing is cooked and every item is considered "raw." The raw food movement promotes the idea that since nutrients are not exposed to heat, you're ingesting the highest possible amount of good stuff for your body. It's not easy to create cashew cheese and pumpkin seed pate at home so RAW is filling a void.
Visit the location at the Chicago French Market in the Ogilvie Transportation Center or 51 W. Huron to try smoothies, juices and elixirs; salads; breads and spreads; sandwiches like a mock tuna or falafel patties; and entrees like spinach lasagna featuring green strips of zucchini, white cashew cheese and red marinara. Choose among a plethora of desserts from carrot cake and apple pie to brownies and truffles. All are easy to try with grab-and-go packaging.
