A new and exciting vegan restaurant called Earthy Picks is getting ready to open soon in Downtown Orlando at 420 E. Church Street.
The new health food restaurant with “a Latin twist” is the creation of entrepreneur Tatiana Henao who was born and raised in Pereira, Colombia, and then moved to the US when she was 17.
She grew up in a Colombian family that loves to cook and enjoys gathering people around food. In her quest to enhance her lifestyle choices, she discovered the benefits of plant-based foods and submerged herself into Holistic Health and Nutrition studies, and graduated from IIN (Institute of Integrative Nutrition) in 2017.
Inspired by her mother’s idea to share her favorite vegan recipes at the Orlando Vegan Market, she decided to listen to her entrepreneurial spirit and opened Earthy Picks pop-up in July of 2020 during the pandemic.
Today, you can find her beautiful booth at the legendary Orlando Farmers Market and the first ever Vegan Market in Orlando, and soon at Tatiana's new downtown restaurant.
The new restaurant will serve a menu of plant-based dishes, including tacos, grain bowls, empanadas, and more.
Here is a few of the delicious dishes you can expect once Earthy Picks opens.
