The Blossoming Lotus Restaurant, as well as its cookbook, Vegan World Fusion Cuisine, is an ever-expanding vision of many kindred spirits. Established in 2002 on the island of Kauai, the main restaurant now serves over 400 locals and travelers a day. The vision has extended to a downtown café at Yoga in the Pearl, which now offers events and catering services. In summer 2006, they launched a new line of live food and packaged products that carry the Blossoming Lotus logo, as they continue to share their vision of plant-based cuisine throughout the world.
