The sunny days are coming and with them a lot of clichés inviting us to drastically reduce the number of calories on the counter – no longer say the word “diet” – if we want to have a new look, not to mention a good impression in our swimsuits .
As good, well-informed friends, we traveled through the Marais to find the best “healthy and gourmet” canteens of the moment. Because eating healthy today no longer means starving yourself or wasting away from boredom in front of a tasteless salad, quite the contrary.
Follow the guide.

Brunch at The Cali sisters

On the menu , from breakfast to dinner without having to skip lunch or brunch, quality products with torrid flavors: O Petit Grain breads, handmade tacos in Paris, organic French meats to prepare meatballs in a casserole and smoked short rib, seasonal vegetables and fruits to compose plates of roasted butternut squash, seared broccolini and cashew nut pesto… Of course, amazing desserts, from the spring fruit and ricotta bowl to the ultra-airy classic cheesecake and the unmissable cookie with a melting center.

Brunch at Season
Are you looking for the healthy Marais canteen where we meet to Instagram our gargantuan plates, created to make us love "superfood" or any other vegan recipe previously avoided? Go to Season.
Its decor with its cleverly decrepit walls, its French-Lab-style white tile counters and its ultra-efficient service contribute to its success which can no longer be denied. It must be said that faced with the richness, softness, fondness and creaminess of all their dishes, no matter how gluten-free or lactose-free they may be, it is impossible to resist.
As proof, the menu includes, of course, the Açaí bowl and avocado toast, which they have made their specialty, followed by veggie bobun, burritos, Caesar kale salad, raw dishes, kefta balls and pastrami sandwich, but also naan and Matcha Bowl with banana.
For breakfast to devour without guilt, the “Banana Tartine” with gluten-free bread, almond puree with honey, bananas, raisins and fresh fruit. And don't forget to hydrate with one of their cold-pressed detox juices Juice It, coffee from Brûlerie de Belleville and “Tell me that I'm good” spring water.
Simply orgiastic.
