PRAISE FOR MATTHEW KENNEY:

Everyone thought the raw diet was a fad soon to pass, but its alive and well. [Kenney] is a virtuoso when it comes to raw and living cuisine.
- Huffington Post

Los Angeles has never lacked vegetarian options, and Ive eaten at most of the usual suspects. I typically go once and never return. M.A.K.E. is different. Kenneys food is a revelation.
- Brad A. Johnson, LA Register

Kenney is the real thing.
-Johnathan Gold, LA Times

Kenney has created a movement that aims to be as inclusive, accessible, and educational as possible.
