Greenwood cafe serves raw food, which is a very specific experience (and one of it's kind in Hong Kong). As someone who does not usually eat raw food, I was surprised by how energised I felt after eating it.The place currently only serves lunches Tues-Fridays, but I really think that they should consider hosting an afternoon tea session, because the cakes are really the highlight.

The place currently only serves lunches Tues-Fridays, but I really think that they should consider hosting an afternoon tea session, because the cakes are really the highlight. In fact, they are mind-blowingly yummy. The portions are not very big but you really don't need a lot as they are made with nuts and ice and god knows what. It may seem pricey at $88 a slice (and it seems such a small slice) but honestly, given the ingredients that is needed to make it, and how satisfying it is, I would totally take a special friend or a date there to treat them.
The seaweed sushi-like things and the flaxseed biscuits are not bad either. One hint: there usually are two choices in the lunch menu. Pick wisely. Don't necessarily go for the bigger portion -- I did that and ended up with a lot of salad. Meanwhile my brother got the smaller one and had more interesting things. If there are two or more of you I recommend picking a meal each and sharing. That way you get to try everything.
The environment is pleasant, it feels very natural and in tune with their philosophy. In the evenings I believe they also host events, special dinners and also have an adjoining organic food/raw food shop.
