“The best thing you could say about Grass,” according
fn founder Bobbv Goldman, "Is that we’re a hundred
years behind the times, when people knew very little
about additives, preservatives, etc., and Mom couldn’t
help but put delicious natural foods on the dinner table.”
The same formula has brought success to the Common
Ground, a modest natural foods restaurant in BratUeboro,
Vt. Stir-fried chicken and Chinese vegetables are a
traditional favorite there. Other popular items include
local, fresh-baked turkey with chestnut stuffing, fresh
salads, homemade soups and make-them-yourself sand
wiches served on whole grain bread. Even their
mayonnaise is prepared fresh daily on the premises.
With such emphasis on quality, natural foods eateries
may turn out to be the gourmet restaurants of tomorrow.
In this age of increasingly synthetic, convenience
cuisines, they could go a long way toward warding off
what Shelton sees as “a gastronomic 1984.”

in time to get
maximum return from the
