Healthy restaurants to eat in
The incredibly colourful taste experience at The Detox Kitchen, making healthy taste way too good. Detox Kitchen

The January challenge to stay healthy can be difficult when talk turns to going out for dinner. Not wanting to be the only one ordering the side salad without dressing, it is often tempting to just pass and head out again in a couple of months when the pressure has died down and your resolutions are long forgotten.

Luckily you are not alone in your desire for a little protein kick or low carb dinner as a number of restaurants have launched menus for January that are high on taste but low on the fat.

This is where you will find us this month:

Andina

Ready for the January diet overhaul the Andina have just launched a brand-new workout-friendly menu based around their Peruvian cuisine, designed to boost energy pre and post-gym session. Nutritionally-packed offerings galore include protein-rich dishes including the morning chia seed pudding, and traditional Peruvian tacu-tacu butterbean 'Peruanazo' for dinner.

Honey & Co

Homely and nutritious middle-eastern food cooked to perfection. Walk past the delicious cakes sitting in the window and indulge in the chopped vegetable salad, creamy feta, zaatar & pomegranates or the Lahma made with roasted marinated peppers , walnut muhamra and feta on a pitta base for a taste overhaul without guilt.

The kings of raw food that also specialise in cleanses. Nama is the place to go if you're looking to try going raw but need a little persuasion. The chocolate and beetroot brownies taste too good to be so healthy. Its also a great way to try your favourites like pad thai or canneloni in a totally new way.
