One of the most joyful things in life is to discover something pleasant, completely unplanned and unexpected. I think people call them 'pleasant surprises'? :) Was walking around The Central in search of a cafe to chill at while waiting for a dinner date with my mum and two family friends, but Starbucks' crowd totally put me off and Broun cafe, which was nearby, was closed. Such bad luck grrrrrr.
Then I came across Real Food and immediately got attracted by its spacious interior and unique concept of
cafe + grocer + mini bookstore, all in one!
Figured they're not so much of a cafe meant for coffee lovers since they only have one type of coffee on their menu :( But the special thing is, it's organic! After spending 2 hours or so reading on the comfy sofa seat, I decided to call and cancel my previous restaurant reservation and have dinner here instead. Yay to a healthier meal with organic ingredients!

It took me awhile after the meal to realise that this was a meat free restaurant... slow, I know. But it didn't make the meal any less yummy even for an omnivore like me hehe. It was supposed to be my treat, but I felt like I was the one who ate the most... but then again, '
at Real Food, all our meals, dressings and sauces are made from scratch using basic organic ingredients. Absolutely no artificially processed ingredients, preservatives, trans-fats and colouring landing onto your plate and into your stomach.' Yes I grabbed that from their website but my point is, that makes me feel a lot less guilty :p
