Since its inception in June 2010, the
Rawk Star Café in Palm Harbor has
rapidly gained fame as the perfect
go-to place for healthy eating aficionados
in the Tampa Bay Area. Café
owners/operators Karen and Adam
make truly fresh, well-seasoned food
and drink, tempting and deliciously accessible.
As they explain, “At Rawk Star Cafe, we
go with the flow of Mother Nature. We create new and innovative
raw food dishes, desserts, chocolates and
snacks, as well as bring quality organic
loose leaf tea, superfoods, and superherbs
from around the globe to health conscious
folks in the Tampa Bay community.”
Karen’s many years of accumulated
knowledge and insight gained first as a
registered nurse of oncology, then through
hundreds of hours of personal research and
Adam’s well seasoned
know-how in the restaurant business fuel
the café’s rapidly growing success.
Their experience in the field notably includes
extensive
research and
experience that
they’ve
gained in their
own raw food
journey. They’ve
tried, tasted and
tested the possibilities
and have
mastered the art
of creating high quality products and services. They are like Picasso
with what Mother
Nature has already
provided, then they
turn that into amazingly
tasty and healthy
works or art at an
accessible price .
The Rawk Star
Café’s clientele enjoy
the benefits of organic,
non-processed,
non-manipulated
(GMO free), natural food and drinks. “People
are looking for a more sustainable way of
living and eating,” they explain, adding,
“ we are here to make that experience
healthy, fun, energizing and appealing.”
The café offers the best in raw, organic/
