Our Food Philosophy
The Food at True Nature is delicious, healthy and wholesome. We tap into the rich tradition of Thai cuisine along with some healthy western and Italian favorites. All of our food and ingredients are organic, locally sourced and in many cases grown right here in our very own garden. All of our meals are vegetarian or vegan options and we are flexible to support those with special dietary needs.
Living in balance isn't just about yoga and meditation, it also applies to our relationship with food. How our food is grown, how its prepared and how its consumed all play a role in our health and wellbeing. In this way you can expect the meals served to be aligned with our philosophy of simple balanced living.
