10 Winter Warming Picks at the Eatery

Winter evokes a mixture of feelings; cold weather means rich and wholesome meals, but it also means colds and the flu. Being snuggled up in our warm and cosy beds but then oversleeping and not having time to pack lunch for work.   

What if we told you that you could have your cake and eat it? Both literally and figuratively.
Food Lover’s Eatery boasts a wide variety of rich and wholesome meals packed with illness fighting vitamins, so you won’t need to pack lunch! Okay so maybe we don’t have a solution for getting out of your warm and cosy bed, but we are working on that.  

Disclaimer – We will only list our top 10 Winter Warming Picks, but there is so much to choose from. So much more! And, of course, we have the classics like pizza, burgers, and sushi. What kind of eatery would we be if we didn’t?  

1. The Pasta Bar

Lasagne, Alfredo, mushroom Napolitana tagliatelle, creamy chicken pasta… It is too difficult to recommend just one pasta. Try them all. Pasta is an excellent source of carbohydrates essential for energy. Teamed up with meat and veggies, it makes a well-balanced meal. 

2. The Smoothie Bar  

An absolute must for many reasons. Firstly, they are crammed with fruit – perfect for keeping you in excellent health this winter. Secondly, they are tasty and thirdly they are fast. An ideal solution to meet your 5-a-day needs on the run. Choose from a multitude of flavours! 

3. Autumn Butternut with Brown Rice and Feta Salad 

Bleh, salads in winter, right? Wrong! Maybe boring salads are bleh. But not our great combinations. Butternut is a good source of fibre, essential for keeping our colon healthy, potassium and vitamin C! Perfect for fighting those pesky colds. 

4. Mexican Burrito Salad

Beans, mielies, peppers, avo, and protein. This is a bowl of goodnessl! Enjoy every forkful knowing that you are providing your body with the fuel that it needs to function this winter, along with delicious flavours.
