PLEASE heed this warning, make sure you are not reading this post on an empty tummy, you will either start nibbling on the corner of your screen, or find yourself booking random flights without thinking just to get to this next venue as fast as you can, BUT that's what they want, complete SA-LI-VA-TION....pfffft!

This moth we are looking into HEALTH CONSCIOUS RESTAURANTS & ONLINE RESTAURANT GUIDES with HEALTH OPTIONS....and have we found a cracker, TOTAL!!!

Please meet....

First, lets take a look at Dining-OUT', its an awesome site, its so incredibly detailed you'd be surprised at how easy it is to follow. Right slap bang in the middle of the main page is the search engine that leads you wherever your palette desires, and we just wanted to see what offerings there were for HEALTH Restaurants, or at least HEALTH CONSCIOUS Restaurants, and we were pleasantly surprised.

We clicked on HEALTH & WESTERN CAPE, and it came up with 52 OPTIONS, that were recognised amongst other things as HEALTH restaurants or restaurants with HEALTH options.

We decided to try 8/ EIGHT RESTAURANT.

Now, according to the websites review EIGHT is a pioneering restaurant with a farm-to-table eating experience. The produce used at EIGHT is either grown on the farm or sourced from nearby farmers. Natural and Organic ingredients are preferred and combined to create nourishing, healthy and delicious food, which diners can enjoy in a beautiful setting next to the Eerste Rivier.

Spier chose a symbolic name for their restaurant, something that captures the essence of the experience. The number 8 signifies balance, cycles, harmony, infinity and abundance. It also represents Spiers closed loop approach, and its integration of Natural cycles into business cycles.

The chefs at EIGHT combine these ingredients into simple but Delicious dishes which accentuate the natural flavours and qualities of the food. The standard menu will be small and seasonal, and specials will make the most of daily availability to ensure the guests enjoy healthy, wholesome, delicious and nourishing food at EIGHT.

Now if that doesn't scream healthy...what does?! Remember, we define healthy by how fresh an ingredient is, how organic it is, and how low the calorie count is, and also how few chemicals, preservatives and additives are in an ingredient. Not whether a restaurant is vegan or vegetarian, but even on that count you will be impressed. Not only is this a something for everybody restaurant, but ts the best of health options you can find anywhere close, or far for that matter. They really have the 'recipe' right here.

Now to take your RESTAURANT SEARCH a little further, Dining-OUT's powerful search engine will find you the restaurant you've been looking for, and some you didn't and glad you found, but the search comes complete with Full Menu, Contact Details, Photos, Editorials, Maps & Directions, with normal map Google map and street view.
