Furthering its noble quest to bring healthy and delicious food to the people of our fair city, The Raw Kitchen has opened a new cafe in the Strand Arcade. A cute, rose-hued spot boasting all of its classic drinks and dishes, the laneway eatery (just opposite Atrium on Elliott) is an inviting retreat from the city bustle — especially if you manage to secure a seat in the cushion-lined mezzanine.

Lining its chiller with cold-pressed juices and kombucha, there is also an extensive coffee, smoothie, bowl and mylkshake menu to salubriously quench one’s thirst. Food-wise, The Raw Kitchen fans will recognise the familiar array of takeaway salads and toasts on the savoury side of the menu, while the sweet offers are a revolving selection of breakfast pots, cakes and slices. Poised to become the ‘cake kitchen’ for all The Raw Kitchen outlets, a raw patisserie chef will be constantly inventing fresh delights at the inner-city cafe, with two new ketogenic-friendly options already making the rounds.
