There's always something happening at the Lotus! This month includes Island Style Bluegrass, Brazilian Jazz with The Mike Smith Band and the Heartfelt Melodies of Jivan, just to name a few. Check out our calendar page for all of our events.
Hopefully you've visited us and experienced our offering first hand, but we're here to tell you that currently it's live on Kaua'i. Please come by The Root to check out what many believe has the most exotic and thoughtful bakery and beverage items in creation. The restaurant is serving it up like never before and it seems that folks are really liking our unique mixture of vegan, live and healing dishes. Of course, if you're in the mood for spirits, we have a full organic wine and beer menu.

The only son of the founder of the Baskin-Robbins ice cream empire, John Robbins was groomed to follow in his father's footsteps, but chose to walk away from Baskin-Robbins and the immense wealth it represented to "...pursue the deeper American Dream...the dream of a society at peace with its conscience because it respects and lives in harmony with all life forms. A dream of a society that is truly healthy, practicing a wise and compassionate stewardship of a balanced ecosystem."
He is the author of several bestselling books, including Diet for a New America, an exposé on the connections between diet, physical health, animal cruelty, and environmentalism. In 2001, he published The Food Revolution, an updated version. It includes information on organic food, genetically modified food, and factory farming. |
John Robbins, the author of HEALTHY AT 100: The Scientifically Proven Secrets of the World’s Healthiest and Longest-Lived Peoples. |
His 2006 book, Healthy at 100: The Scientifically Proven Secrets of the World's Healthiest and Longest-Lived Peoples, published by Random House, was printed on 100% post-consumer non-chlorine bleached paper. This was the first book ever published in the U.S. by a major publisher on such Earth-friendly paper. Subsequently, Random House committed to raising the amount of recycled paper in all their books from 3% to 30%, a shift that will save more than 500,000 trees a year.
"I've had the pleasure of eating at many of the finest vegan and vegetarian
restaurants. The Blossoming Lotus, in Kapa'a, Kaua'i, is among my very favorites. The food is superb, the ambiance is relaxing, and the overall dining experience is marvelous." - John Robbins
