Mint Leaf Pasadena with RKVC | Reverse Cheat Day – Ep. 2 Quincy James Freeman27 May 2017086 views On this episode of Reverse Cheat Day I head north of Los Angeles to Pasadena, CA. Accompanied by my good friends, RKVC, we try Mint Leaf Pasadena, an Indian cuisine restaurant with impeccable tastings. Rod of RKVC is vegetarian, and a vince is gluten-free. I, of course, have no eating restrictions other than preference and personal palette. When i was invited to Mint Leaf i immediately thought this dynamic duo would be the perfect pair of people to join me. I am glad to have filmed this episode of Reverse Cheat Day, a series where i step away from my normal eating habits of burgers and fries, and into the light of what i consider healthy or somewhat healthy, kinda. Please sit back and relax as we go through a series of appetizers, entrees, and a dessert offering that is good enough for the gods.
