*** SALAD PLUS ***
EAT & BE HEALTHY
Recently, my foodie friend,
Ruth Wong aka food blogger at perutbesi.blogspot.my invited me to check out a brand new salad and sandwich joint ~
Salad Plus Co which was located in
Quizinn Foodcourt at Nu Sentral Mall in Brickfields. Well, it was an eye-opening experience for us as we were treated to a wide array of
low-fat, nutritious, healthy and yet tasty plus appetising meals to fill our hungry stomach that afternoon.
You can never miss Salad Plus as it's located strategically right across the main entrance at the Quizinn Foodcourt. Spacious, clean and comfortable seating are available at the foodcourt where you can dine in comfort and bright atmosphere.
Salad & Sandwiches
Amazing sight for me to see such wonderful spread of tantalizing, nutritious and all-natural wholesome market-fresh greens at the salad counter!
Extensive Selections
Choose from an extensive variety of vegetables/fresh greens and you can pick your choice of toppings with some delectable seeds, nuts, grains, fruits and complete your healthy and well-balanced salad with your choice of protein such as cajun chicken, tuna, turkey, smoked salmon, grilled aubergines and pan-fried tofu among others.
Mixed of Shredded Purple & Yellow Cabbage
Salad Plus' Chef, Diana Moe is proud of her house-made dressings, all are specially concocted to complement the salads and warps as well. She takes pride in preparing them using only fresh and premium ingredients like basil, mint, cilantro, lime, palm sugar, ginger, garlic, apple cider, olive oil, sunflower seeds and premium soya sauce just to mention a few.
All Salad Plus's dressings are suitable for vegetarians as Diana is careful not to use any animal products like the fish sauce for her homemade dressings. She explained that the dressing is made fresh from scratch without any preservative, hence they are kept for a week or two to the max and discard before a new batch needs to be made.
Take your time to check out their menu for breakfast, brunch salads, salads, wraps or even Salad Sets that come with a choice of either soup or coffee or a combination of both to whet your appetite of clean eating!
On top of that, there are also appetising hot wraps, sandwiches, homemade yoghurt and desserts for those looking for a quick bite ~ "Grab N Go" concept. Good choice especially for busy working adults and students who are looking for some nutritious and wholesome meal to keep them going.
Our gastronomic adventure at Salad Plus starts with a parade of colours, textures and flavours from every salad served, artistically fused together for an unforgettable vitamin-rich, all-natural and well- balanced experience. Read on .....
High Energy Greek Delight

For those that must have rice in their meal, should check out this special rice dish. For RM 9.90, it makes an affordable, tasty and complete well-balanced meal with carbs, protein and vegetables on the side.
The rendang chicken is cooked with loads of fresh herbs and spices; quite evident when I take my first bite of the chicken. There's no coconut milk used for this dish but it does not lose the creaminess, yet rich tasting with fragrant sauce that goes hand in hand with the nice warm brown rice.

Thai Salad with Chicken in a Spinach Wrap

Patrons can have the option of having their salad in wraps like in this Thai Salad with Chicken that is served in spinach wraps. The wrap is more filling compared to the salad and I do like the spinach wrap; not thick or too doughy, just the right thickness to fill everything in nicely.
This zesty Thai-infused wrap is colourful with a mix of orange. white, yellow and green with 4 colours of food ~ coriander, basil, spring onions, cherry tomatoes, mixed peppers, carrots, chilies, nuts and vermicelli and served with spicy, sweet and sourish Thai dressing ~ a special taste of lime juice, sesame seeds and ginger.
