In addition, the website offers access to some of the most interesting dishes imaginable, including regional specialties, such as Japanese chae, Korean Jja-jang Bob and Korean-style squid.

As Brian D. of Campbell, Calif. said on Yelp.com, ?I have brought my daughter here for three years now, each summer. Shelley Ballard has been gracious enough to negotiate a deal for multiple classes, spread out over each summer, for us. My daughter loves it; enough that she is motivated to want her own restaurant when she gets older! In fact, she has used her knowledge to help prepare food in a neighborhood restaurant!?

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) January 10, 2012
Scoma?s Restaurant, a San Francisco seafood restaurant in Fisherman?s Wharf, is beginning the new year with two events this January.
Scoma?s is hosting its own booth at the Winter Fancy Food Show to spotlight its retail product, Scoma?s All Natural, Sustainably Harvested Seafood Cakes. Scoma?s Seafood Cakes include crab cakes; shrimp and crab cakes; and salmon and crab cakes. Scoma?s will also feature its popular clam chowder, which Newsweek Magazine recognized in 2005 as one of the best clam chowder recipes in the country. The Fancy Food Show lasts from Jan. 15 to Jan. 17.
Since 1955, the NASFT Fancy Food shows have been North America?s largest specialty food and beverage marketplace. Between the Winter Show in San Francisco and the Summer Show in New York City, the National Association for the Specialty Food Trade events bring in more than 40,000 attendees from more than 80 countries to see 260,000 innovative specialty food products, such as confections, cheese, coffee, snacks, spices, ethnic, natural, organic and more.
Scoma?s is also participating in the 11th Annual Dine About Town from Jan. 15 through Jan. 31.

Truly a family affair and rich with San Francisco tradition, Scoma’s continually seeks to provide a memorable San Francisco waterfront dining experience.

According to the product?s developer Arnel Ricafranca, their 28-day weight loss program was designed to teach people clever little tips and tricks about their favorite foods, so they can eat them and not feel guilty about it.
?Now that the new year is here, I wrote the ?Fat Loss Ignition Food Swap Guide? to help everyone discover how to make healthy substitutes of the foods you love the most. This will help you preserve all the taste and flavor of the food you like, and ignite fat loss at the same time. You?ll get recipes that are based on our proprietary formula of what constitutes an FLI score for a meal,? said Ricafranca.
?Here?s the formula = 1 FLI score equals 12.5 grams of healthy carbohydrates (specifically selected carbohydrates to eliminate insulin spikes). It also contains 10 grams of delicious, flavorful proteins and 2.5 grams of rich, heart healthy fat,? he added.
However, he quickly noted that based on one?s gender, height, and weight, the user will know the maximum FLI score her or she can eat in a single meal and still lose weight. Besides, you?ll also know your daily FLI score.
Ricafranca also assured that users won?t have to worry about the intricacies of the junk food tricks? in the FLI Food Swap Guide, because he?ll be helping them figure it all out as he claimed to have more advanced calculators and recipes, including baking recipes for them to use in the members area. For more information, please visit http://www.fatlossignition.com.
Also, Ricafranca added that as persons reach their goals with the Fat Loss Ignition program, they will continue to eat delicious foods that balance healthy carbohydrates with lean proteins and heart healthy fats. ?For example, we have FLI 4 score and FLI 5 score versions of your favorite recipes like chocolate chip pancakes, quarter pound burgers, pepperoni pan fried pizza, cheesy chicken enchiladas, fish tacos, double chocolate milkshakes and much more,? he said.
Ricafranca also claimed that eating fresh, hot, delicious and healthy FLI foods every day (most of them take 10 minutes to prepare) and following the exercise guidelines in the ?Fat Loss Ignition Training Manual? will allow persons on the program to reset their body?s insulin levels and ignite fat loss, allowing you to lose 10 per cent of their unwanted body weight in in 28 days and continue losing weight till you reach your goals.
?Once you claim your personal copy of the Fat Loss Ignition manual, you?ll notice that FLI baked recipes taste the same (or better) than traditional recipes and make you feel full faster,? he added.

True Healthy Products, an all natural nutrition company and proponent of healthy eating habits, now promotes healthy dark chocolates and whole food multivitamins that can help counteract cell oxidation and slow the body?s natural aging process.
Antioxidants found in natural foods and some dark chocolates are commonly believed to counteract cell oxidation or cell death which is part of the body?s natural aging process. Youthful bodies can quickly replace damaged or dead cells, but with aging, this cell replacement process slows. Antioxidants can speed this process up again, which may help to slow the overall effects of aging.
According to the company, a common trend with many shoppers is preventative health through good nutrition with a cornerstone in the consumption of antioxidant rich foods like the healthy dark chocolate, ?The Doctors Chocolate? which is featured in the company?s ?Simple Chocolate Diet?.
The Simple Chocolate Diet guide is free and can be found at their web site: http://www.simplechocolatediet.com
True Healthy Products? ?The Doctor?s Chocolate? is one of several antioxidant rich items in their product line. The formulator of this healthy dark chocolate is Dr. Keith Scott-Mumby who received his formal medical training in the UK. He went on to take a special interest in food allergies and nutrition and has written several popular books on these subjects to help thousands of people simply by changing their diets.
Dr. Keith Scott-Mumby?s book ?Diet Wise? can be found here and is a remarkable resource:

?Dark chocolate ? but not milk chocolate or dark chocolate eaten with milk ? is a potent antioxidant,? reported Mauro Serafini, PhD, of Italy?s National Institute for Food and Nutrition Research in Rome, and colleagues. Their report appears in the Aug. 28 issue of Nature. ?Antioxidants gobble up free radicals, destructive molecules that are implicated in heart disease and other ailments. Our findings indicate that milk may interfere with the absorption of antioxidants from chocolate ? and may therefore negate the potential health benefits that can be derived from eating moderate amounts of dark chocolate.?
In addition to healthy dark chocolate, you can consume a diet rich in fruits and vegetables to help counter cell oxidation and the effects of free radicals. Typically, the fruits and vegetables with the deeper colors contain the higher amounts of antioxidants.
The company’s all natural whole food vitamin ?9 A Day Plus? is also full of antioxidants to arrest cellular aging, probiotics for digestive health, and the nutritional equivalent of 100% of RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) of fruits and vegetable requirements.
