Gourmet Raw Culinary Art is the newest, sexiest and most innovative palate for the culinary artist to paint from. I am excited to have helped pioneer this new cuisine.

Chef Be*Live

Brian James Lucas (Chef Be*Live) is one of the pioneers of the 90′s gourmet raw food movement.

From 1998 to 99, Brian was Executive Chef and co-owner of Organica: the Living Cuisine, located in San Francisco, CA. Organica was unique being that it was one of the first gourmet raw living restaurants in the world. It was Raw, Vegan and Organic (Wild or Biodynamic). The restaurant was definitely ahead of its time, as you will find characteristic of Brian.

Chef Be*Live placed #1 as Favorite Gourmet Raw Chef in the only international raw food contest the Best of Raw 2010 and also placed high in 2008 and 2009. He considers himself a “transitional” gourmet raw chef, specializing in creating raw living cuisine that tastes superb thereby helping make people’s first experience with raw living foods equal to many of their cooked favorites. Believing that most individuals need a good tasting experience to transition into eating more fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds, he has encouraged a multitude of people to discover a healthier diet through flavorful raw living plant based cuisine.

A number of influencial individuals such as Jake Gyllenhaal, Keenan Ivory Wayans, Woody Harrelson, Nick Nolte, Jeremy Piven, Andy Dick, Mike D, Anna Getty, Aileen Getty, Angela Bassett, John Salley, Rohan Marley, Brett Dennon, AC Green, Bleona Qereti, Michael Beckwith, Ammachi, Brittany Daniel, Barry Zito, Greg Cipes, Ed Begley Jr., Cathlene Silvers, Anthony Borden Ward, Peter Nygard, Vassiliy Jirov, Bai Ling and many more have enjoyed his culinary artistry.

  

Chef Be*Live has a unique style that is absolutely his own and which has gained him praise amongst his peers and an increasingly large fan base.

He was featured in the supermodel Carol Alt’s raw food book The Raw 50, where you can find the recipe for his “Mom’s Stuffed Bells”.

Chef Be*Live is a true RawkStar in every sense of the term. He always guarantees to give an Orgasm of the Taste Buds that will RAWK your world with all of his culinary delights.
