Usually, I go to the Fairfax location, but I had to meet Michael from Groovy Green half way. He was in Malibu for a family reunion of sorts — and took the time out to have a lil chat over coffee with me at Mani’s Bakery in Santa Monica.

If you live in LA and don’t yet know about Mani’s — You’ve been missing out, and you’re really, really lucky you read green LA girl ;)

This bakery has the healthiest baked goods — mostly organic, fruit juice sweetened stuff. Not only is the stuff healthier, it’s less processed, more natural, and better for both you and the environment. And it’s yummy, of course :) I had a breakfast burrito with vegan sausage…

Plus, Mani’s serves Groundwork Coffee and has a blog! What more can you ask for from your bakery?

And just for kicks — Here’s some interesting info from Mani’s FAQ:

Why did you stop carrying Coca-Cola products?

Several months ago, Mäni’s decided to take our sodas to the next level. Because we want to provide our customers with healthier alternatives, we chose to bring in a soda with no preservatives and no high fructose corn syrup. For those concerned with calories, we still offer the Diet Coke in glass bottles.

Y’all know about killer coke, yes?

Mani’s Bakery. Los Angeles: 519 S. Fairfax. 323.938.8800. Santa Monica: 2507 Main St. 310.396.7700.
