“A book worth taking a look at, especially if you can’t take the
heat in your kitchen anymore.” — Daily News
Praise for Kenney and Melngailis, Pure Food and Wine Restaurant
“Fashionable cuisine…Pure is more about uplifting discoveries than
culinary I-dare-yous… At a place you’d assume might be all about
denial, it’s one awfully sweet reward.” — New York magazine
“Manhattan’s hot new restaurant…Raw food is going glam at Pure Food
and Wine.” — New York Post
“Whether or not you’re counting calories, your body will appreciate
the innovative, health-driven summer menu at…Pure Food and Wine.” —
Time Out New York
“Our quartet of gourmands is beguiled by tomato tartare, the spicy
Thai lettuce wraps, and a pineapple-cucumber gazpacho…After
zebra-tomato lasagne, hummus-slathered flatbread pizza topped with
a savory salad, “creamy” golden-squash pasta with summer truffles,
and dessert, I cancel plans to stop for a burger on the way home.”
— New York magazine
“With its burnt-orange walls, low lighting, and intimate bar, Pure
Food and Wine is both urbane and seductive. The colorful food is
equally stylish—the fact that all of it is prepared according to
strict raw-food principles…seems almost beside the point to the
diners who fill the narrow restaurant and its verdant garden every
night.” — Organic Style
“Matthew and Sarma are five-star masters of organic cuisine. I am
continually impressed by the taste sensations and culinary skills
they bring to their restaurant, and now to the pages of this book!
It’s filled to the brim with recipes, ideas, and strategies to make
your kitchen jump to life. This is the best food ever!” — David
Wolfe, author of Eating for Beauty and Naked Chocolate
