9 of the best places in Hong Kong for the most healthy and delicious lunchtime eats

Skip your lunch of salad or boiled broccoli and chicken and check out these restaurants around the city with menus full of healthy, fresh and innovative choices
We’re one month into the new year, and many of us are trying to stay on track with our resolutions.
Some of us are taking part in Dry January, trying to get into a good gym routine, budget better, or find stress-reducing activities to add to our busy schedules. With all these motivating goals, improving our eating habits and finding options for healthy restaurants is another commitment for some of us to tackle in 2019.
Healthy eating is a mindful practice, and what you define as “healthy” can be different for others. Most of us have a balanced diet, but on occasion, we all love a good cookie or pain au chocolat in the afternoon, and nothing is better than ending a long work day with happy-hour drinks.
Over the past few years there has been an explosion in healthy cafes and restaurants in Hong Kong, and we’re happy to see menus catering to vegans, vegetarians, or incorporating a plant-based diet.
Healthy food isn’t just a trend, but a conscious focus on what you put into your body. Dishes can remain creative and wholesome – the best of both worlds.
Here are nine of the best – tuck in guilt-free!
1. Elementary

Elementary is a pretty chill restaurant. Fill your table with some colourful, fresh, and innovative dishes for brunch or dinner. One of our favourites is the EFC (Elementary fried cauliflower), and the veggie burger just hits the spot. The desserts are quirky, fun and great for sharing. The white chocolate pudding remains one of our favourites.
