Be Raw Food and Juice Marks First Year with Enthusiasm

Paula Sepulvado

The organic, live, vegan and gluten-free cuisine restaurant in Preston Center, Be Raw Food and Juice, is celebrating its first anniversary with in-store specials all during the month. Owners Paula Sepulvado and John Vandelicht are raw food enthusiasts who understand the benefit of raw is that by not cooking fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains and legumes you retain more of the nutrients. They have a staff that is able to do magical things using dryers and soaks and years of experience cooking raw to transform ingredients into surprisingly rich dishes.

Be Raw’s popular menu items include a burger made from sunflower seeds, pad Thai type noodles made from zucchini, spaghetti and “meat” balls, and coconut kale enchiladas. The restaurant also has a selection of decadent desserts. They have also added a juice bar with a selection of elixirs and smoothies, and pizza samplers.

Sepulvado says the cooking classes conducted at Be Raw scheduled for every other Sunday evening will resume in the fall. Meanwhile, she continues to speak regularly to organizations and school groups about the benefits of eating fresh, healthy raw food.


Be Raw is located in Preston Center, 6005 Berkshire Lane, Dallas. For more information, call 214-234-0106 or visit BeRawFoodAndJuice.com.
