Can’t seem to
eat a nutritious
meal during your
9 to 5? I’ve
heard the
complaints about
the bagels,
donuts, and
candy which
conveniently
flood the
lunchroom and go
straight to your
thighs. Well,
you don’t have
any excuses
anymore with
Interim
Café in
your
neighborhood.
For those
Douglas Emmett
Westsiders, The
Verona is home
to this
deliciously
healthy eatery.
Friendly to
vegans, lactose
intolerants, and
meat lovers
combined,
Interim Café
provides a
colorful menu
featuring
organic and
farm-fresh
products.
Interim Café is
a cozy spot with
a friendly staff
that even smells
healthy; if that
makes any sense.
Don’t be too
overwhelmed by
the menu,
there’s a
plethora of good
things. Try the
creamy mushroom
soup fragrant
with fresh thyme
and served with
two slices of
the heartiest
whole grain
bread. Or one of
the many
quesadillas
topped with a
mixed green and
strawberry
salad. You can
decide to
involve the cow…
or not, Interim
offers the
choice of soy
cheese. They
also have a wide
variety of
curries, salads,
and breakfast
items. When in
the mood for
something hot or
cold to drink,
choose from the
array of vegan
smoothies, teas
and coffees.
And since you’ve
had such a
healthy meal,
don’t forget to
top it all off
with one of
their gluten
free, sugar
free, dairy free
pastries which
are luckily,
guilt free. Your
mother would be
so proud.
