There is a script by which a health food restaurant typically adhere to, some more successful than others. Whole grain. Organic. Kale. Quinoa. Beet salad. Tofu... Stop me if you've heard this before.However in Nood's case, they pull off a wonderful dining experience through a script that seems so idiot-proof its a wonder why most health food joints come off as boring or contrived.

However in Nood's case, they pull off a wonderful dining experience through a script that seems so idiot-proof its a wonder why most health food joints come off as boring or contrived. That is to say, Nood serves the above ingredients in surprisingly tasty ways with great customer service to boot. They add enough salt, acid, and flavour to make an ingredient like kale sing in many different dishes. Importantly, they understand that variety is the spice of life, and offer a menu that allows diners to customize with 8 different salads on order, a revolving door of sandwiches, and hot options such as soups, roasted veg, and other comfort food done in a healthy manner.
I've yet to eat my way through the menu as I typically stick to a single script - the 4 salad combo box with pulled white meat chicken ($120), juicy despite its provenance, made even better with a thin utilitarian brown gravy. Beyond the bird, I always go for the kale with avocado dressing, the ever present beet salad, and when available, a playfully crisp and refreshing preparation of sugar snap pears with sesame. It's a combo that I eat once a week, and never grow tired of.
Nood also gets it right with fantastic customer service, something that I rarely see in Hong Kong restaurants. The service is all smiles and warmth - not just once, but on every visit. Want that meal to go? They'll carefully tape the takeaway box to prevent leakage. Squeamish about mixing your salad and chicken? They'll break up your meal into separate containers without an extra charge.
If that script sounds heedless, rest assured that you'll have a good meal at Nood. A meal that nourishes both your body and goodwill.
