for you organic food lovers (or not): you must try Razan's Organic Kitchen located next to California Theatre on Kittredge. I live right by the place and I had not tried it until last night. Tuned in concerning the great benefits (health and ethical) of eating organic meat by my friend eric, I found myself quite excited to try out their menu.

last night, i ordered the grilled chicken burrito (wheat tortilla)- organic chicken, organic rice, organic beans, cheese, sour cream, and salsa. i must say, it was DELICIOUS. the quality of the meat was much better than any chicken burrito you could get at other burrito places around here. there was a perfect proportion of beans to rice to cheese, ets. however, be warned, because everything is organic, the prices are a bit higher than the average la burrita deal. i paid $6 for the chicken burrito. tonight, i went back to Razan's with eric and ordered the garden burrito- grilled veggies, basil, spinach, organic rice, beans, salsa. it was quite tasty as well, setting me back about $5.50. Also on the menu are some international wraps, as well as a side menu of falafel, fries, pita, and some tasty lookin smoothies ($3.75). oh and my friend recommends the raspberry-ginger ale with your meal.

the place is tiny with a few two-seater tables inside and out, colorful walls, with a view of touchless carwash and all the people waiting out of Great China. I'll save that review for later!

expand your experience with organic; your mouth and the environment will thank you!

cheers,
