When did Rush Bowls start?

Rush Bowls originated in 2004, when Pudalov decided to leave the New York financial scene to pursue his dream of creating a healthy, fast-dining restaurant that filled people’s lives with honest ingredients and delicious recipes, according to its website.

As a result, Rush Bowls was born in Boulder, Colorado offering bowls filled with fruits, granola, and honey, and blended with protein and vitamins.
