After an evening of indulgence I was desperate for something healthy and I remembered a friend had mentioned the Wellness Café which is part of the Wellness Warehouse chain. They are known for their healthy ingredients so I was excited to see they now have a café. Situated in the heart of Kloof Street it’s a very popular place, but luckily we went on a Sunday when the roads were a bit quieter and managed to find a parking.

We were starving, so we placed our order at the counter and sat down to wait. I chose the Poached Egg on Greens which was a poached free range egg on broccoli with courgette, cheese, hemp seed and parsley cake with toasted seeds. It was very strange to have so many greens for breakfast but it all worked really well and I absolutely loved it. Especially the parsley cake, that was my favourite part. My husband went for the Wellness Full English which is scrambled free range eggs on whole wheat toast, with fresh parsley, bacon, mushrooms and wilted baby spinach. He asked to change the scrambled eggs to poached eggs which they were happy to do. He absolutely loved it. We felt great after our breakfasts and I would definitely go back.

I didn’t love my Americano but I tasted my hubby’s cappuccino and it was lovely.

A very fresh, vibrant and healthy place which I’d love to return to.
