Healthy food that is oil and salt conscious. Tasty and yummy. First heard of this chain restaurant as Bill Clinton was in town speaking about nutritional eating as he had heart issues; his daughter Chelsea apparently recommended it (the Stanford location). The Cupertino restaurant is just 2-3 blocks and easy walk from the home.
