Hello again Steemians!
Welcome to my first food blog. It was a lunch out with family and friends. We all decided to visit a small cozy place Buen Provecho Cafe, located at uptown Cagayan de Oro City near SM Mall. Buen Provecho is a Spanish word meaning " Good Benefit." It doesn't really make sense right? But this is what the Spaniards say to their guest and friends before they eat their meal. It's an equivalent of "Bon Appetit" in Italian or "Enjoy Your Meal" in English.
Healthy Lifestyle Program
Not only a place to eat and enjoy mouth-watering foods but, they have an advocacy and that's spreading a Health Message by eating the right food in order to stay healthy and enjoy life at the fullest. They have a program called "CHIP" Complete Health Improvement Program. As what I have heard from customer's, it is a 30 to 60-day program wherein you undergo "detox " naturally by eating natural, organic fruits and vegetables in your meals. By doing so, you can improve your health. " Eat More Weigh Less". That's the theme is all about.
Now, maybe you are wondering how can an individual weigh less while eating more ? It's because it is purely a vegetarian diet. I am not a vegan anymore. I just consider myself as an occasional vegetarian. I can live with a strict vegan diet but not for long. My meals at present , consist of fruits , veggies, eggs and fish. I eat beef, native chicken , and goat once in a while. Way back 2010, I went on a vegetarian diet for 6 months. Yep! 6 months without fish or meat. I lost about 25 lbs and my waist line trimmed down from 30 inches to 27 in. So, it's not impossible to weigh less and eat more.
Lunch Buffet Theme: Asian Fusion
They have other themes like Mediterranean, and European . Lunch Buffet is every Tuesday and Thursday
