About Life Opens in Lane Cove

North Shore lovers of organic coffee, kale, and other stuff that generally helps to stop you getting sick, you've cause to cheers over another wheatgrass shot. About Life, one of Sydney's healthiest institutions, has come your way.

Self-described as a "holistic lifestyle hub", About Life was already taking care of trying-to-prevent-your-early-death in five locations: Bondi Junction, Double Bay, Surry Hills, Rozelle and Cammeray. But why stop there, when millions of city dwellers are in need of shinier skin, brighter eyes and internal makeovers?

Opened on March 31, the Lane Cove branch is doing just as its predecessors have done: bringing you not only a grocery store specialising in all things whole, local, fresh and organic, but also a cafe, a self-serve food bar and, in case you're planning a not-very-naughty party, catering service.

The coffee is just as you'd expect it: 100 percent organic, from the beans to the milk, and, if you're considering improving your caffeine hit, you're invited to try a ginger turmeric latte. In the food bar, dubbed 'Nature's Servery', you'll find About Life's signature creations, from cacao rich bircher to coconut cinnamon rice pudding to raw zucchini noodles with kale pesto and cauliflower tabouleh.

A hectic special events calendar is in the works, too. Keep an eye out for cooking demos, book launches, product launches and Q&A sessions led by experts.

Find About Life at 62 Burns Bay Road, Lane Cove. Open 7am-8pm daily and 8am-5pm on public holidays.
