    Kaz Vitamines

    This quirky juice den just off the main drag is perfect to recover from a hangover. It serves smoothies, vegetable and fruit concoctions, and if you've reached your carri-eating limits, there is a cold veggie soup (around €4) or a salad. Try the explosively fruity (and eye-poppingly purple) cocktail La Kaz, which is a mix of pitaya, banana and lime.

    Crocodile

    A very popular café-bar up in the lively Kisimenti district, the Crocodile has a tempting range of salads, pasta dishes and sophisticated snacks. It gets very busy on Sunday, as the healthy flavours are good for a hangover.

  8. Chez Mahad

    Ultrafresh fruit juices are the deal in this buzzing bolthole, so put some bounce in your step with a glass of mango mixed with milk or papaya with watermelon. It's off rue de Madrid.

    This place is great for a refreshing vitamin C fix, squeezing and mixing up a great selection of juices and smoothies. There is no seating area: slug it back and keep moving.

    Tornado

    Dim lights, TVs and canoodling couples - but the hardest drink is a smoothie, and the fresh-fruit sheesha tastes practically healthy.
