5 restaurants for healthy and tasty meals in São Paulo

I’m far from being the healthiest person in the world, but over the years I’ve learned to, on some occasions, compensate for life’s alcoholic-gastronomic upheavals with lighter meals and healthy . I’ve included playing a sport – which I haven’t done in years – and I hope this leads me to a more controlled life.

No, this is not a text that tries to convince the reader to eat this or that (or stop eating), nor to boast because I know I have a lot to improve in my diet and daily habits.

However, some time ago I started to value light and healthy food when done well and with a lot of flavor.

Therefore, in today’s text I indicate 5 restaurants that value the ingredient and, in most dishes, use the most diverse types of vegetables, vegetables, proteins without intervention and are great options for days when we want to follow a healthier diet, but full of flavor.

Because life is not and shouldn’t be, not by a long way, watered with junk food (although I’m passionate about it).
