Nordstrom Bistro Cafe is a little hidden gem inside several Nordstrom stores around Saint Louis malls. We were lucky to come across this restaurant while shopping at the Galleria one day and were thrilled with what we found! This is definitely a step up from the food court options you usually find in the malls.

Chipotle is a higher end fast food chain that has recently received a lot of press for their decision to go GMO free. This move has given Chipotle the credit they deserve for their long time use of higher quality ingredients, especially compared to most fast foods. Their positive sales have reflected their commitment as consumers have become more aware of food quality and are driving the market forces in a positive direction. While Chipotle sales have risen recently, during the same time frame McDonalds fast food chain has suffered, closing hundreds of stores. Chipotle really cares about the source of their produce and meat and they try to support local farms that treat their animals respectfully and their plants as naturally as possible. They even stopped selling some of their pork products at one point because they could not get it from their good source any more.

Needing a casual place to grab some quality food with quick service, we decided to try the Crazy Bowls and Wraps restaurant located in Creve Coeur, Missouri. This restaurant has recently made a fabulous transition with the quality of their food and we were pleasantly surprised with this local chain’s efforts to provide good quality food. It had been a few years since I had been to this restaurant and the positive changes they made definitely reflect the growing demand for more natural foods. It is nice to know we have somewhere right near our house to grab some fresh and organic food and we are definitely now fans of this locally owned Crazy Bowls and Wraps restaurant! (Hannah)
