While many restaurants offer healthy
choices in their extensive menus, it’s almost impossible to make a
healthful selection when those mozzarella cheese sticks are making
your mouth water. Here are ten places where you can’t help eating
healthy—and we promise, you’ll enjoy every bite.
Kung Foods
If you’re
vegan-curious, this is the place to go. Not a single animal-based
product can be found among their hot and cold deli-style selections,
which range from salads to burritos to fiery barbecue.
Cilantro Live!
San Diego County’s
only totally raw restaurant. Yes, you heard it right. For bold souls
who don’t mind eating like bunnies, some of the items are downright
delicious.
Daily’s
Offers a
“Heart-Healthy” menu that’s as delicious as it is nutritious,
with items such as three-bean and corn chili, southwest chicken
wraps, and fresh-squeezed sparkling lemonade.
Mama Testa’s
The only restaurant
in town that serves up solely free-range meat. That means happy
chickens, and even happier tummies. There are also many great Mexican
selections for vegetarians, like avocado taquitos.
Crest Café
Home cooking was
never this healthy. A lip smacking selection of fresh juices,
alongside nourishing entrees like chicken artichoke salad and pesto
veggie sandwiches.
Region
Emphasizing fresh,
local produce and other products in elegant simplicity, this
Hillcrest restaurant features fare like organic salads, ricotta
ravioli, grilled albacore, and melon sorbet.
Celadon Thai
Dozens of healthy,
exotic choices—just choose the chicken or tofu over the other types
of meat.
Kemo Sabe
Pacific Rim cuisine
with Native American flair. Try the vegetarian platter, “Good
Things Growing”, even if you’re a carnivore—it’s like a
patchwork quilt of different flavors, and a portion of proceeds are
donated to the San Diego Humane Society.
Bombay Exotic Cuisine of India
So vegetarian
friendly! So delicious! Also try sister restaurants, Monsoon, Blue
Ginger, and Masala Spices of India.
Spread
This tiny, funky
restaurant offers a short menu of delicious, ever-changing items, all
featuring a different nut-based spread. Every gorgeous dish is
sprinkled with edible flowers, and based with organic products.
