A friend of mine, who is food paranoid, is in town for business and would like to go to a good, casual (jeans) restaurant that serves organic foods/meats---tomorrow night. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. She's staying at Washington Square Hotel, so downtown would be helpful, but not absolutely necessary. |

Gobo is a good vegetarian restaurant that's pretty close to there (6th and Waverly). Don't know if their produce is definitely organic, though. |

Spring Street Natural Foods would fit the bill perfectly. It's been there forever. www.springstreetnatural.com.

I SECOND Angelica's Kitchen. My rule, if anything sound appealling to you on the special's menu GET IT. They are always good. If not, get a Wee Dragon Bargain (and carrot ginger dressing) with ANGELICA'S CORNBREAD with miso tahini dressing. Sounds boring as hell but I leave there feeling like a million bucks. Totally tasty and a bargain. I've taken carnivores to this place (they came begrudgingly) and left RAVING about their meal. Go. Go. Go. I've taken hordes of people to Gobo too. Very good meals there too. |

I like Josie's too. There's a 2nd location near Grand Central.
