Announcing: A Bowl of Good Café!
Published June 16th, 2008 in Uncategorized.Well, the cat is out of the bag: A Bowl of Good will be evolving into a A Bowl of Good Café in the summer of 2009. If you haven’t heard, you can read about it here (http://www.dnronline.com/news_details.php?AID=29195&CHID=2 ) in the Daily News Record, Saturday edition. The back story is fairly interesting (to us at least), but we won’t go into the details right now. Suffice it to say, we are excited, hopeful, scared, and trying to rest in God’s hands.
Rachael has been partnering with me in the Staunton Farmers Market and will be launching out with me in this new venture on Mt. Clinton Pike next to A World of Good and Artisans Hope. We are excited because this will allow us to spread our creative, culinary wings. We hope to provide you a warm, rooted in community place to eat internationally inspired, local goodness.
We have a tremendous amount of work between now and then but for certain, we want to hear from you in what you would hope to find in A Bowl of Good Café. We are excited in where all of this will take all of us.
We believe that with the friends and loyal customers we have developed over the past few years, we can’t lose.
Congrats on the exciting news ! I wish you well.
If you are in need of any of the following equipment or something different I have many leads on good condition used equipment.

Congratulations!! Right near my house, I’m very excited!
That’s great news guys, congrats!
Some of the questions I asked you at the Farmer’s Market last week:
1. Have places for growing herbs and greens part of the design inside and out of the cafe?
2. Will rainwater harvesting for the plants be a part of the design?
3. Is there provision for sun in the winter?
4. How will kitchen trimmings be composted? Have restaurants discovered any way to compost consumer waste?
5. How are you locating providers of herbs and greens? I would guess that moving pots of plants and plants in and out of the planters and beds would be necessary. What cooks good and what looks good aren’t necessarily the same. One example of this is chives in the spring vs the summer.
congrats. i’m looking forward to the cafe. i hope it will be a comfortable place to eat bread, slurp soup, drink tea, maybe even sit and read on a full stomach, etc. please stay vegan friendly!
