What if I told you that eating plants could be delicious, satisfying, and joyful—and also help protect animals, preserve natural spaces, and reduce our impact on the climate?
Just outside Chicago is a restaurant that brings all of this together. It’s called Spirit Elephant. A 100% plant-based restaurant where every dish is thoughtfully prepared without compromising flavor, creativity, or comfort.
The moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels uplifting. The space is alive with plants, warm energy, and one of my favorite features—a giant photo of an elephant herd stretching across the wall. Whether I’m dining with someone who is plant-based or not, everyone always leaves impressed by the food, the service, and the experience.
On today’s podcast, we’re sitting down with Founder and CEO of Spirit Elephant, CD Young, and Assistant General Manager, Jordan Pedone, to explore not only plant-based food, but the deeper connection between what we eat, our health, animals, community, and the planet.
