Seasons 52: Great food that happens to be great for you

Last week I had the pleasure of dining at Seasons 52 in Phoenix, twice! The experience was great, and the food was even better!  This place truly knows the definition of green living, and they practice what they preach.

Get this — everything on the menu is less than 475 calories, from their famous flat breads to their “mini indulgences” desserts.  Their menu changes completely every season, while the specials change weekly. Chef Jeff LaVine (head chef at the Phoenix location) hails from more than 20 years of experience cooking professionally. His love for food and love for thinking and eating healthy truly shine through in the dining experience. That being said, Seasons 52 uses only the best products for their customers.  They use only what is in season and get whatever they can locally.

In addition to using great tasting ingredients, the company embraces all-things eco-friendly, down to the hand towels and the to-go boxes.  Also, with more than 120 bottles of wine to choose from at every visit, they go through many wine bottles, which are all recycled.

This restaurant really “gets it” when it comes to living green.  And they definitely get it when it comes to serving up great tasting food without the extra calories.

Seasons 52 is now open at Biltmore Fashion Park, 2502 East Camelback Rd., Phoenix, AZ 85016.  Visit their website at www.Seasons52.com.
