Here is a list of places we like to go to eat as they serve healthy foods and beverages. Not all-inclusive of course but places we know and like.
We really hope that there will be more places that serve food that is really meant for our human body…Isn’t food meant to nourish us and keep us healthy? However in today’s world we need to go to “specialty” places to eat “healthy foods”…! Do you share our hope? Make your demand heard! Ask your restaurant about offering brown rice option for example. (Support the Brown Rice Movement!) Ask them about the water they use and the oil they use… Suggest them to offer organic options. Support those who operate with integrity and your health interests as prioity!
And your suggestion to add to this (growing) list is very welcome!!

A sincere and creatively decorated vegetarian restaurant in Central. They prepare and serve their food with love.

Not everything is free of diary or wheat but we appreciate that they always have whole grain choices and those who prefer a combination of cooked and raw can find it here in their set menu. We love the vegetarian bibimbab… They have a set menu with about 5 sets at lunch and dinner and it changes weekly.
