Ayuverda Cafe.


Yesterday, we went to the Ayuverda Cafe on the UWS of Manhattan. Ayuverda has a particular science behind it and this is an all vegetarian restaurant. The food was very good and reasonably priced.

The food and drinks are served in stainless steel dishes, which seems very hygienic. The meal changes every day but is set for that particular day. Dinner cost only $12.95 per person and it's all you can eat!

For those of you who don't know what Ayuverda means here is a brief description from their website:

"Ayurveda is the science of life, a 5,000-year-old traditional holistic system
of well-being from India. 'ayur' means 'of life' and Veda' means 'knowledge'. Ayurveda is the knowledge of longevity which offers healing, rejuvenation and self-realization through balanced food, herbs, yoga, massage, aroma, and meditation.

Ayurveda is very clear when it comes to food. Sattvic (pure) food is needed to heal and maintain good health and must incorporate six tastes in every meal: sweet, sour, salty, bitter, astringent and pungent."

It's really cool, I hope you find such a place in your community!
