Lentil as Anything

A good day. 

Lots on. It's HOT, HOT, HOT though. It feels like (high) thirty something at least. We've already been to the pool once today and we'll be going back this afternoon.

Anyway, I've been meaning to write about a fabulous lunch we had on Saturday. A catch up with fellow nurse, Christine, at a place where you pay for what you feel your meal was worth and what you can afford. An amazing concept. You'll find Lentil As Anything venues here.

According to their website, it's about being "a part of a unique financial model that is centred on the values of trust, generosity and respect that gives people the opportunity to eat out and be social regardless of their financial situation".

It's a not-for-profit organisation that supports the refugee community of Melbourne by providing employment. It's really an amazing place. 

What I love about it - anyone is welcome. There were all kinds of people eating and I loved the diversity.

There are no pretenses. It's what you see is what you get. It's SUPER kid friendly and best yet, the food is fabulous (all vegetarian - which even though I'm not, is yummy).
 
Lucie was in heaven because they let you leave your mark on their wall.
