The Vision
Imagine the many ways your life would change if you could eat at a delicious restaurant where your weight, blood pressure, cholesterol, and average glucose level drop or normalize the more you eat there! WHOLi KaBOWLi! was conceived by Douglas M. Cluff, M.D. (see below) in order to fill the great need for a truly healthy and tasty restaurant.
All dishes are prepared from only whole plants and fatty seafood, with add-on protein/meat if desired. Not a single gram of oil, sugar, white flour (things Dr. Cluff calls "plant waste") or dairy (together by far the greatest sources of hidden calories and inflammation) can be found anywhere in the restaurant. Foods are sweetened with whole plants (e.g., dates, bananas), and dairy is replaced by nut-based products (e.g., almond milk, cashew cream).
Our ever-present goal is to make every meal a jaw-dropping, "Seriously, this is good for me?!!!" experience, at the same time improving your health in a variety of ways!
