Me and my friend S. decided to do some shots after a hard day of work! But hey..not just any shots stupid, but healthy wheat grass shots! It's been years ago that I've been drinking these green shots, and that reminded me I really have to drink these more often. Some find the taste really disgusting but I really like the taste..I even find it a bit lemony (call me crazy but I do!), I could seriously drink a whole glass of it! As I'm going to Indonesia and Singapore soon I thought I'd do myself a favour by prepping myself drinking these super delish Coconuts! MMMmm I'm feeling exotic already ;) I always wonder how come the organic 100% coconut water at the organic supermarket can be stored outside the freezer for so long without added chemicals.. So by drinking these little fellas I'm really sure that this is pure nature I'm drinking, No package, No sugars, No chemicals, just Plain fresh coconut water straight out of the nut! MMMMmm.. so tasty! You are now probably wondering where I had all these delicious drinks!? Well I was at the 'Alchemist Garden', a raw food restaurant and juicebar at the Overtoom. They've been here over 4 years but they've been changing the place bit by bit lately (good things are happening). I love to go here when it's warm and sunny, they have a nice terrace but strange enough I have NEVER eaten here...BUT S. was feeling hungry and ordered the club sandwich, it's with raw bread and a good combination of healthy veggies, I took a bite out of her 'sandwich' and the part I liked best is the dressing on the sandwich! MMMMmm.. I couldn't place it what it was! but I liked it a lot! Sure I have a love for nature..but the 'Alchemist Garden' took this to a whole new level..with that I mean their lavatory is a bit over the top.. they have real spiderwebs and spiders..and this wasn't just decoration..urgh..Whenever I'm in a restaurant I find it very important that the lavatories are in the same condition as the rest of the restaurant..So if you're reading this mr. Alchemist.. please mind the toilet..give it a bit more attention and it's all good :D Tip: Before you start drinking the juice of the coconut I always scoop out the flesh, this way the coconut water will be much more flavourful, trust me.. you'll taste the difference!
Minor detail, as good as the coconut water is for you, don't forget that the white flesh (actually the best part) is very high in calories, and this..I unfortunately didn't found out about it reading it on the net..( I f#cking wish :|) xoxo The Cookteaser Alchemist Garden Overtoom 409 in Amsterdam
