ORGANIC AVENUE

 (Paddington)

Founded in Melbourne, the first store in Sydney opened in April 2015 at Paddington 5 Ways. A stylishly minimalist and large interior makes for a roomy and light aspect. Great for mums with prams! The owners wanted to create a space where people could grab a drink as well as sit down to enjoy it.

Their main staple is cold pressed juices. All organic, non-heated, made in Melbourne and shipped to Sydney daily.

They have a small selection of organic/natural products including raw protein power, Ovvio organic spices (which is just across the road!), Loving Earth chocolates, Paleo Chief bars and Pure Paleo muesli.

Salads are offered which are made in Melbourne and shipped to Sydney daily. All vegetarian, though some contain dairy.

Their coffee is from Naked espresso organic coffee made with 100% Arabica beans. There is a double ristretto shot in every coffee. Almond milk, coconut milk, cow milk available. Hot chocolates and Tea Tonic tea also available.

Left over ground coffee beans are made into coffee scrubs and sold. Some have kale and almonds mixed through.

Their nutritional philosophy has a vegan bent but my bulk hot chicken stock is the notable aberration to this! We also formulated a vegan pumpkin and red onion soup at their request also available as a hot soup. Even though it is vegan I was sure to include coconut oil in the soup as a much needed source of healthy saturated fats. We will alternate soups periodically. My vegan banana, date and walnut loaf (sold by the slice) as well as some of my activated nuts will also be available in the coming weeks. Follow me on social media accounts to stay tuned of updates.

Here are their contact details:

Bone-Broth Making Workshops: Thurs 30th July 7:30pm and Sunday 9th August 10am

I'm kick-starting term 3 with a series of stock making workshops. Home-made stock (aka bone broth) was a staple in all traditional cultures. People of yesterdays ate nose to tail – meaning that the whole of the animal (including the bones, fat and organ meat) was consumed. In fact these ‘odd bits’ were the mostly highly prized part of a kill for our hunter-gatherer ancestors, as they worked out through trial and error over millennia that they were the most nutrient-dense. Today, most people in Western society simply don’t consume home-made broth on a regular basis, either because of lack of information or know-how on where to source or how to prepare broth properly and deliciously. Here’s your opportunity to build strong immunity, robust digestive function and vibrant health for the remainder of 2015 and beyond by learning how. One of my missions in life is to being back these age-old nutritious foods to the modern table. With a vengeance. And a playful twist.

I’ll teach you the ins and outs and everything you need to know about how to make a gelatinous, delicious broth and how to incorporate it in your and your family’s daily diet. 

I have a e-folder full of testimonials about how my bone broth and my broth making workshops changed people lives. Here’s one I received from a client yesterday:

“Hi Soulla, I’ve made a dedicated effort to drink broth every day for the last couple of months and the pain in my arthritic hands has almost gone….It’s a miracle!!” ~ Sandy Tate.

In my workshops I will explain the scientific reasons for HOW & WHY this traditional food works miracles!

The first broth-making class for this term will be held on Thursday 30th July 7:30pm. As spaces are limited, if the class is oversubscribed I will hold repeated classes on each Thursday night thereafter. I will also hold a bone broth workshop on Sunday 9 August 10am for those who can’t make a weeknight.

Cost of the workshop is $80 per person and includes:

> a detailed workshop booklet with over 25 pages of information including:

i) the health benefits of bone broth,
ii) step by step guide on how to make a gelatinious chicken, beef, pork and fish broth,
iii) recipes
iv) FAQs
v) where to source pastured bones,
vi) ways to incorporate bone broth into daily meals and drinks.

> 1 hour informative theory discussion and Q&A

> practical demonstrations

> hands-on experience

> food tasting that incorporates various types of stock, including a dessert!
