Toby Scheckter - "The Idea is to educate as many people as possible to experience a plant-based diet in an enjoyable way"

Former world champion go-karter, Formula 3 racing driver, founder of Scheckter's Energy Drink and now restauranteur behind the very popular Scheckter’s Raw in Seapoint "Health food has always been a big part of my diet but when I was living in New York launching Scheckter’s OrganicEnergyTM I was blown away by the ingenuity and creativity that was flourishing in the health food scene and a greater passion was sparked in me. When I returned to South Africa, I became frustrated with the local health food offerings. Compared to New York, they were unimaginative and limited. I wanted a place to eat where the food was nutritionally uncompromised, looked as good as it tasted and bursting with original, fresh flavours. Most importantly, I wanted to share that experience with other like-minded, health conscious foodies. I drew inspiration from working on my family’s organic farm in the UK, my travels around the world and my healthy obsession for health food! And so – Scheckter’s RAW Gourmet Health Food was born. A serene space serving uncompromisingly honest, beautiful and innovative healing food made with love.
