The Wellness Warehouse Group has added to Wembley Square’s healthy lifestyle offering, with the addition of the uberstylish and uberhealthy Wellness Café, on the ground floor of the trendy Cape Town shopping and office precinct.
I was invited to the launch of the Wellness Café last week where journalists, bloggers and influencers were hosted to a casual lunch buffet. The buffet table had a big selection of salads available while Cajun linefish, lasagne, quiches and other dishes were available as well. The cafe sources its ingredients locally and seasonal foods are often preferred whenever possible. It also supports the growing trend of plant-based diets, organic eating and the quest for wholefoods and superfoods which quickly becomes apparent when looking at the menu.
Eat well – Wellness Café opens in Wembley Square
The menu adds a gourmet touch to healthy eating, and the Wellness chefs prepare a feast for the wholesome daily lunch buffet that includes a range of soups, hot foods and salads. The café caters well for special dietary needs with vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, diabetic and dairy-free food options. Taste, texture and spice are combined in grains, proteins, fibre and farm fresh fruit and veg.
Wellness Café brings you the best of good health with the delicious celebration of taste. Our food is made with passion and love, with consideration for the environment and an excellent balance of nutrition, energy and wholesomeness.
Being close to the Wembley Virgin Active, the Wellness Cafe puts fitness on the menu with the post-workout protein smoothies and superfood brownies. Otherwise customers can indulge themselves over organic coffee with a muffin, raw cacao cookies, mini-carrot cakes or squares of melt-in-your mouth vegan Tahini fudge.
Besides being wonderfully good for you, the Café is a pleasure to relax in. The fresh, white décor blends seamlessly into Wembley’s contemporary design. Minimalist tiling and gentle, eco-conscious lighting echo the Wellness principles of alleviating pressure on the earth and going back to simplicity in order to live life well.
The Café is opposite a Wellness Select store which specialises in a range of healthy food and fitness supplements. The store’s sections are each dedicated to a different area of holistic living, from well known protein and immune-system supplements to a yoga-inspired exercise-wear, beauty products, raw foods and supperfoods.
Based on the pillars of sustainability, integrative health and living an eco-lifestyle, Wellness Warehouse is firmly committed to dual principles of environmental awareness and community development. A key aspect of that development is raising awareness about the many choices available to the consumer, who is concerned with living life well..
The Café at Wembley Square is designed to show how easy it is to develop sustainable eco-coscious eating habits, and develop a healthier lifestyle that works for you.
