Shishoto Peppers at LACMA

While on a work-trip-turned-vacation in LA last month, I had lunch with my boyfriend at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. This museum has an amazing collection of modern art and it's gourmet farm-to-table restaurant, Ray's, was equally as impressive. We decided to share plates which means we played the game of searching the menu to 'order within my diet' for both of us.  While I strictly adhere to my "no dairy, gluten, corn or high carbs" diet, I don't expect those restrictions to be imposed on my meal companions, but it's extra nice when they play along. We found three items on the menu that fit the bill and they all three dazzled. It just goes to prove that even 'healthy' can be inventive, tasty, and imaginative, and I don't have to feel like I'm missing out on the dining out experience. Pictured above is a tuna sashimi, shishoto peppers with salt, and a kale and pigs ears salad.
