....Philly home girl Nwenna Kai, of Oak Lane, had more reason than most

to root for Forest Whitaker last night. Besides being a fan, she's also

his business partner. The two run an organic, raw vegan raw café in Los

Angeles called " Taste of the Goddess. "

 

Kai, 31, who graduated from William Bodine High, met Whitaker while

interning for his now-defunct production company. After quitting the

film business and going into business for herself, she sought out

Whitaker, a longtime vegetarian who signed on with her last year.

Saw this restaurant featured on the Travel Channel. The guy visiting was a jerk

about the food, but did admit it was good. Andy Dick was one of the guests at

the outdoor dinner. Forest Whitaker was not mentioned.

I ate there several months ago and the food was absolutely wonderful. My sister

and I shared the ravioli and the enchilada wrap. We got several desserts to take

home like various cookies and apple pie. I can't wait to go again. I thought it

was way better and not as foo-foo as Juliano's. The people there were so nice

and they give a first timer's discount. My sister, who is not raw, loved it as

well. I got to try the raw cafe in Las Vegas last month as well and it was

spectacular. I got their neatloaf and the Mexicali Sampler. I hope someday there

will be a raw restaurant in evey city. I do miss dining out.
