Yummy green food at Lyfe Kitchen, Chicago

Image
Our recent family trip to Chicago was another food adventure. One of our favorite lunch spots was Lyfe Kitchen, at 413 N. Clark Street in River North, Chicago. Here, they serve great food that makes you feel healthy as well. I love that they have a fresh herb garden right at their entrance, and gluten free, vegan & vegetarian, and everything (for those who eat anything) menus. My 7 year and 9 year old boys loved their flatbreads, sweet corn chowder and Thai Curry Bowl with marinated tofu or chicken. We also tried their Quinoa crunch bowl and Kale Caesar salads--all very tasty! For weight watchers, nothing on the menu exceeds 600 calories. I found kale and quinoa welcome healthy additions on many menus during this trip and am going to start cooking more with them. Wish we could bring this place home with us to Paris! (Hmmm... Business idea??)
