From Earth and Water - Burleigh Beach

From Earth and Water is the most amazing vegan delight cafe, located in Burleigh Heads Beach down the Gold Coast. The small but gourmet restaurant specialises in serving all Organic, Raw and Vegan food and is by far some of the best food I have ever tasted.  The quality of the meals are of something you would be served at a 5 star restaurant with a tempting menu full of delicious high quality and flavoursome meals. You would never know the meals were raw, vegan nor healthy as each dish is packed with so much flavour, and the chefs have replicated the dishes identically with a unique twist. The cafe has a breakfast and lunch menu offering a variety of rotating meals filled with goodies such as raw ravioli, raw tacos, harvest salads, vegan brioche burgers, raw wild rice sushi and the most decadent amazing desserts! 

Walking into From Earth to Water has such a unique and welcoming feel. The walls are painted are bright white which opens the small space and has a clean and quirky look. The interior desgin of the space is filled with the cutest furniture and decorative features. The table setting is set up so nicely like you were at a high tea, featuring little vintage plates, forks and knifes and small jars of fresh native flowers.

This time round I was eager to try the Vegan brioche burger with a crusted tofu filling and almond peanut coleslaw, and boy Im glad I did!  the burger was one of, if not the best vegan burger I have ever tasted! The brioche bun was light and savoury with the most amazing texture, the tofu was soft yet lightly crusty on the outside, and the coleslaw and pineapple was fresh, crisp and complimented the dish beautifully. The serving was also big and generous, successfully filling my big appetite just nicely.

My Sister got the raw tacos which I have had previously, and it was hard deciding weather or not to get them again. The tacos had a flaxseed and nut base which was light, crunchy and identical to a normal taco shell. The filling had crisp cos lettuce, cherry tomatoes and an amazing mix of sweet corn guacamole, cashew sour cream and a spicy mexican vinaigrette layered on top.

And last but not least the amazing raw desserts! its hard to go past their most popular and delicious dish on the menu, the raw caramel snickers slice!  Layered with a vanilla creme, chocolate mouse and sweet caramel filing, a crunchy crackle base that will blow your mind ! and an oozing caramel placed in between the mouse and topped with the most decadent thin slice of raw chocolate. It is seriously just worth traveling to Burleigh for this caramel snickers! 

So If your down the Gold Coast or at Burleigh Beach for the day I highly recommend visiting From Earth to Water as you will not be disappointed with the amazing food they serve!
