I always believe there is a strong correlation between the food and the body. What you eat will affect your look directly. Hence, in order to look healthy and beautiful, the first step is to have a healthy lifestyle and eat healthily instead of focusing on make-up or fashion.That’s why I have done mass researches regarding nutrition of food, healthy food mix, and lifestyle pattern recently.

That’s why I have done mass researches regarding nutrition of food, healthy food mix, and lifestyle pattern recently. I am not a total vegetarian but just try to consume more. The result is quite nice as I can feel my mood becomes more peaceful and pleasant after eating veggie. Also, I concern much about the global issue and want to be environmental friendly. Eating veggie is definitely advantageous to cut the release of carbon. Let’s have a quick move to contribute for the planet today. However, I find that it is quite hard to find a vegetarian restaurant in the heart of main district. Well.. I prefer some modern and western vegetarian food to Chinese, Indian vegetarian food. The former looks and smells more enticing than the latter. Both are wholesome and healthy though. In Wan Chai, there are not many vegetarian or organic restaurants. Life Deli is one of them. Indeed, the location is a bit secluded as it is not at the main street, but at the corner that you may miss it easily. It is not so noticeable that only one staff and a few seats are in the store. The customer flow is not too busy during my whole stay in the restaurant. In the fridge, the labels clearly show the ingredients and state which food is optimized for vegetarian.
Here is my order: Life Quiche ($50)
Actually, life quiche refers to Egg and Spinach Tart. Please feel free to ask the staff to heat up your food. It tastes better when it is tepid. For the texture, it is like a bit harder than Chinese steamed water egg but softer than marble cake. The flavor of egg is slightly lighter than the normal ones. Maybe it is made from organic eggs. It is also rich in spinach. I think not many people like spinach but this one is baked so it is not bitter at all. Carrot Cake ($50)
The feeling is quite special to try dessert in a vegetarian restaurant. Normally, the sweet tooth may doubt whether they have to cut all sweets if they go vegetarian. Then, it is proved not! From the ingredients, the carrot cake is made from carrot, nuts, grains, orange juice. Honestly speaking, it does not arouse the appetite from the appearance as the colour looks pretty dull, ya, just a piece of “stuff” in dark green, brown. You can say the natural colour then. Given various kinds of nuts, you may produce some crunch when you eat it. Hahaa. Wow! Although the carrot cake is lumpy, it’s incredibly lip-smacking! You can taste different layers in a bite. The magic should be the orange juice which makes it a bit sweet as well as juicy but not over the top. Besides the light food, you can also purchase some organic food here, such as energy bar in the cupboard or coconut water in the fridge which are rare to find in elsewhere. The food here is a little bit pricey but you pay a great effort to the planet. Okay. I gonna try the salad next time!
