Just call it ‘Fresh B Cuz’
From Divine
Grounds to
Fresh B Cuz
By Eve Marx
Seaside Signal
Searching for delicious,
nutritious,
gluten-free,
dairy-free, no-meat food
to go? look no further than
Fresh B Cuz, a spanking
new micro-restaurant just
opened in Seaside.
“As much as possible,
our food is locally sourced,”
said Desshia Duffey, the
proprietor. “That also helps
keep the farmers in business
over the winter months.”
A 20-year Seaside resi-
dent and Nebraska native,
Duffey is a familiar face to
many as, with a partner, she
was a long time owner and
operator of the coffee hut,
Divine Grounds.
Inspired by the acai
bowls she fell in love with
during family vacations to
Hawaii, Duffey said she was
motivated to open Fresh B
Cuz because she craved that
kind of food.
“There aren’t a lot of
places in Seaside offer-
ing meat-free, gluten-free,
dairy-free choices,” Duffey
said.
Fresh B Cuz occupies
a tiny 9-foot-by-9-foot
structure on the corner of
Holladay and 11th. In time,
Duffey expects to be joined
at the location by two other
micro-restaurant establish-
ments.
Featuring
smoothies,
acai bowls, protein bowls,
avocado toast, soup, and
Sleepy Monk coffee, Fresh
B Cuz is already shaping up
as a popular destination for
clean, healthy eating.
How did Duffey come
up with the name?
“At first I was just go-
ing to call it ‘Fresh’ but I
couldn’t get that name,”
Duffey said. “Then I was
going to call it ‘Fresh by
Dessh,’ because that is my
name. Then I hired Amanda
McKimmey to help out —
and she’s my ‘cuz.”
Fresh B Cuz is located at
1115 N. Holladay Drive in
Seaside. Hours of operation
are 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday
through Saturday.
Drive up or walk up;
there are two windows. Call
or text your order to 503-
298-7903.
