I had my third wonderful meal at Dynamic Dish in Edgewood. The vegetable-inspired cuisine of this restaurant makes the perfect connection between good nutrition and good eating. David, the owner, told me after my delicious organic pizza, that good nutrition is the reason he got into the restaurant business. You mean it is possible for a restaurateur/chef to be as concerned with nutrition as with the taste of his entrees? In an unhealthy modern era where the addition of addictive fat, salt, sugar and other highly-processed ingredients are the top priority of most restaurant industry executives, Dynamic Dish is a trail blazer.
Saturday is pizza night at the Dynamic Dish. The crust is whole grain, thin and crisp. The toppings delicious little vegetable morsels with a just harvested flavor. The roasted sweet potato soup was spicy and sweet with fresh ginger (not to mention loaded with cancer-fighting carotenoids). Superfood dandelion greens were dressed with vinaigrette and highly nutritious sunflower seeds and apples. Flavors, textures and nutrition should be the new “bliss point” that restaurant executives aim to achieve rather than the unholy triangle of fat, sugar, and salt which currently permeates most restaurant menus.

You said the magic word when you said pizza. I live in Decatur so I’m not too far from DD either.
