We are SO excited to announce our episode 11 guest: Nat Stratton-Clarke - the current owner of Seattle’s oldest vegetarian restaurant, Cafe Flora!
When Nat first moved to Seattle he told himself he would give himself 5 years to try out working in the restaurant industry and joined Cafe Flora working to help procure locally sourced veggies. If it didn’t work he figured he could go to law school.
Within 5 years the owners of Cafe Flora had offered to handover ownership to Nat, and he took over and hasn’t looked back since! He’s grown Cafe Flora into this incredible institution in Seattle - with two additional locations in SeaTac airport (Floret) and a bakery (The Flora Bakehouse).
Our co-host Madeleine is Cafe Flora’s biggest fan - as a vegan she has always loved the amazing seasonal veggie menus that Cafe Flora offers! We're so excited to share this one with you all!
