Locals are rejoicing the arrival of VIDA Gourmet, La Jolla’s newest culinary sensation. The enlightened establishment provides time-saving home delivery of oven-ready and fully cooked meals, all made with extraordinarily healthful and organic ingredients. VIDA’s motto is, “Making your life naturally delicious”, and they seek to do so by serving a “diverse array of meals, so that our customers can enjoy a culinary adventure every day of the week in the comfort of their own home.”

However, if patrons would rather escape the comfort of their own home instead, VIDA also includes a comprehensive restaurant. Among the salubrious selections are roasted butternut squash soup, spiny lobster cakes, hormone-free filet mignon with caramelized onions, and for dessert, chocolate “three ways”: in cake, a cherry torte, and roasted orange rocky road ice cream.

VIDA Gourmet will open this August. Read more at www.vidagourmet.com.
