US City Seed Oil-Free Restaurant Guide - Part 4
Southern metropolitan areas. 104 restaurants. 12 cities.
We’re onto the 4th & final week of our 4-part series on the seed oil-free restaurants of the greater metropolitan areas around the US.
Part 4 of a 4-part series split up by geographic region:
Part 1 = Mid-Atlantic & New England
Part 2 = West Coast & Rockies
Part 3 = Midwest
Part 4 = South
In Part 4, we cover the major urban areas of the South region of the US:
Miami
Charlotte
Raleigh
Nashville
Austin
San Antonio
Houston
Atlanta
Oklahoma City
New Orleans
Orlando
Dallas
These restaurants remain the exception to the industry norm. But until the norm becomes seed oil-free, we’ll need to drive the cause through a grassroots initiatives. We support those restaurants - especially local businesses - taking into consideration culinary excellence & customer health. Vote with your wallet.
A good general rule of thumb for the restaurants listed below: avoid anything deep-fried. Each featured establishment has committed to using premium cooking oils like olive, avocado, & coconut, or traditional fats such as beef tallow & butter. While some may still offer deep-fried options using seed oils, we'll clearly identify which restaurants maintain strictly seed oil-free kitchens.
Last point before we jump in to our extensive list: if you know of or are the owner of a restaurant/café/deli fitting this criteria, let me know so we can add & continue spreading the word to make a healthier America in the coming years.
