Sitting on the end of Malibu Pier, happens to be Malibu’s newest gem, Malibu Farm. The seaside company was started a few years back by Helene Henderson from her pasison for food blogging and cooking classes. Since then the newly opened cafe caters to the health-conscious Malibu WIFE looking for a chilled out meal with beautiful ocean views. The cafe’s mantra is “Fresh. Organic. Local.” They locally source all of their produce, and actively practice the “farm to table” concept as well as only serving up sustainable seafood. Every week, they handpick their products from a local farmer’s market.
THE WIFE Favorite: Swedish Mini Pancakes and Quinoa Oatmeal. Malibu Farm Cafe is currently only open for breakfast, lunch and taking reservations for dinner (Wednesday – Sunday). Malibu Farm Cafe, 23000 Pacific Coast Highway

Each bottle is topped off to limit oxidation and avoid degradation of the juice, thus preserving the juice’s nutrients and live enzymes.
