Calling Home | Lexi Pivots and Reframes Her Narrative

Save

Eat More Plants, that's the claim that Lexi has emblazoned on the walls of her restaurants.

Not "only eat plants"
Not "Don't eat meat"

Just eat More plants. More variety, More of them, More than the other things you eating.
This nuanced message is the focal point of Lexi's food philosophy where there is space for even the most ardent carnivore to explore.

We talk about how her shops have fared over the past couple of years , lack of energy both literally and figuratively and her own mental health.
