To make raw food this sexy and appealing takes talent and vision. That’s why you’ve got to put your prejudices and preconceived notions aside, and get yourself to Belmonte Raw.

The narrow but chic space doesn’t see much action as its raw juice and food cleanses delivery service makes up the bulk of the business.

Tuck into one of the daily specials, like the stunning Zen Kale Salad ($14). A blend of crunchy veg – jicama, green beans, carrots, cabbage – is topped with an invigorating dressing and acai powder, delivering powerful antioxidants and nutrients. The rapturous Veggie Wrap ($14) made with a cabbage leaf and accompanied by a spinach salad topped with meaty, juicy almonds will have you rethinking bread from now on. 

The afternoon dozies are a thing of the past after an exhilarating lunch like this. Imagine how you’d feel if you always ate like this.
