Healthy Horizons: Leahi Health's Fresh Start in The Villages
Leahi Health: Bringing Hawaiian Vegan Cuisine to The Villages
In this episode of Season seven of Open Forum in The Villages, Florida, host Mike Roth speaks with Tweet Coleman and Malia Walsh about the upcoming opening of Leahi Health, a new Hawaiian-inspired vegan restaurant in The Villages. Tweet talks about the motivation behind the restaurant, which stems from the success her son Jason Coleman experienced with his vegan restaurants in Hawaii. Malia elaborates on the origins of Leahi Health, which began in 2012, and the benefits of plant-based diets. They discuss menu items such as smoothies, kombucha, kale avocado tacos, and beet poke salad, emphasizing fresh, health-centric ingredients. The conversation also touches on the challenges and excitement of introducing vegan cuisine to The Villages and their plans to engage with the community through events and 'Give Back Monday' promotions.
