Health Food restaurants in South America

  1. Mandala

    This humble, health-minded café affably cooks up quick, quality vegetarian fare (breakfasts are huge!) in a subterranean space with tables that probably look just like the ones at your grandmother's house.

    Calorie-counters swear by this inexpensive and healthy lunchtime buffet, where a team of chefs washes, tosses and stirs an impressive range of salad dishes.

    Todo Natural

    Healthy offerings include fresh wholemeal sandwiches, a lengthy salad list and numerous vegetarian choices in this cute little café with an open kitchen and small alfresco courtyard. The service is downright bad – guess speedy service just wouldn’t be natural – but the food is decent, making it worth a visit.

    Dumbo

    Dumbo serves gourmet frozen yogurt in the usual flavors plus maracuya (passion fruit), papaya, guayaba (guava), almond, tangerine and so on. One thing you can say about the meals here is that you get a lot of food for your money.

    Lito's

    Lito's might not look like much, but the service is excellent and the traditional Chilean dishes are consistently well prepared. The fixed-price meal, including a platter full of salad and a good portion of fish or meat, is quite a bargain.

    Manzana Mágica

    This is a worthwhile, strictly vegetarian spot known for its breakfast – muesli, juice, eggs and brown bread, and tasty soy steaks. Lunch is ultra-healthy and à la carte dinners are assertively spiced and portions are big.

    Casa de Campo

    Healthy food is the name of the game here, with all-day breakfasts, homemade pastries, vegetarian dishes, soups, salads, you name it. The friendly owner is keen to make her guests happy, but her breakfast is the priciest in town.

  8. Inversiones Lakshmy

    A small health-food store and bakery with fabulous vegan (can you believe it?) empanadas (around US$1), dried fruit and bags of TVP (texturized vegetable protein) that vegetarians covet on Roraima treks.
