For a healthier option, I get the wheat one for a price. There is also the pesto wrap option instead of the wheat and regular one, also for a price. I think this is the perfect option when I'm looking for a a quick healthy snack that can ease my hunger instead of going for a heavier meal. This is like my default snack when I can't decide what to snack on. The place is just like a small kiosk where only three to four people can dine in. It's really more for ordering take out or if you're in a hurry. But remember to eat it as soon as you get it. It's better hot than when it's not. The only problem I see here is that it's on the top floor (6th?) and it's just really an effort to go there before you can eat. I wish it's on the second floor so I don't have to go all the way up for just a quick snack. And for them to have more exposure. Though going all the way up is worth it because of the very good taste of their product and well the guy doing my order is cute so all is forgiven. Haha!

I usually hate when things remain the same, but with food this good, I thank my lucky stars that Plato Wraps is consistent. I only order their chunky chicken wrap, while my girlfriend swears by their ham and cheese wrap. Back in college, two chunky chicken wraps plus a bottle of C2 was my go-to movie snack, which may be the reason why I'm so, uh, horizontally-challenged (read: fat) now. Gah.

Salads in case I wouldn't get my fill on just one order of leafy greens. It turns out, though that I didn't have to! For only P100, you get a good serving of salad, and I felt pretty full from my order of Wild Wild West (I chose it for the buffalo chicken bites it had in it), which was really refreshing. The vegetables were still pretty crisp, and dare I say, delicious even without the meat! I had a Breakfast Smoothie on the side, but that actually proved too much because the smoothie was so filling; it could have been a meal on its own. I'll take note of this place when I have extra time to eat out and maybe decide to lengthen my lifespan a bit more, LOL.

Filling yet affordable salads are a little hard to find. Either they are served as a side dish -…read moretoo little to satisfy - or served big but at a more than moderate price. So I was very happy when Go! Salads arrived in Katipunan. Whenever I crave for salad greens, I come here. The salads are all worth PhP 100 only. My favorites are the no-meat salads: Peach Traveler and Sweet Caroline. The greens are fresh and the kitchen puts in an adequately generous amount of other ingredients. I really wished that this store would be successful in Katip so that I would have a salad place nearby. Like an angel of blessing, the store extended and now offers green shakes. I tried their Breakfast Smoothie made of apple, banana, cinnamon, chia seeds, oats, coco sugar, soy, and greens. It did taste like a mix of vegetables with hints of cinnamon. I enjoyed it a lot because I like the taste of vegetables and of cinnamon. I am not sure, however, if the green smoothies would be a hit for everyone since the taste of the greens was quite dominant. But, if you are a health food lover or just brave enough to be a vegetarian for once, try Go! Salads.

Though I've only just recently learned to stop eating after dinner at eight pm, it's been working well for me so far. That said, it can be a difficult thing sometimes to find something that's nutritious and good to eat so I try a lot of things sometimes when I'm in a mall or on the go someplace, and thus I got to try Plato Wraps. It's actually a pretty simple idea behind their food--just a press-toasted tortilla folded in half with some form of savory filling inside it. It's basically a sandwich with a "twist," I guess? It's not ingenious at all, but on the whole, it's pretty okay. I have a dislike of mayo, though I can take it when it's a sandwich spread, and the ones they use with their fillings are good enough to take away from that mayo taste.I think the major thing going for them health-wise is that they actually include a little veg into their small meal, which I think is great enough, and they actually have a completely veggie option too.

Plato Wraps has such as strange name because they don't actually serve wraps. They serve cheap but…read moregood panini. For P60, you can get one that is filled with some savory things like ham & cheese or chunky chicken. They come in two sizes: medium and big. The panini itself is thin but holds up well to the amount of filling they put. I like that it becomes crisp when they heat it up. They say they bake their own wraps, so that must be why these don't taste like the commercial ones you'd find in a supermarket. Their wraps are available in regular, pesto or wheat. Get wheat if you want the healthier option. It's great for a quick snack that's pretty easy to eat. I just hope they come out with new and more exciting flavors because they already have the good base panini, they just need to really make a big push for innovation to get more customers to try the food. Maybe introduce some Mexican flavors with pulled pork or add another vegetarian option with roasted eggplant? The day they come out with edgier flavors, I'd be one of the first in line to try it.

But for Salad Stop, they've made the taste of salads not taste so healthy! For a quick healthy fix, in a heartbeat, I suggest you make Salad Stop your pit stop. You can either whip up your own salad or you can choose from their menu on their signature salad recipes. You've got two choices - either have it prepared the traditional way (just all greens in a bowl) or in a wrap. My ultimate choice for first timers is the Cobb Salad. It's this chicken based salad that has romaines, cheese, egg, and even avocado. It's really so good and refreshing! The Jai Ho is also a good choice - this is good if you want to have some Arab tasting salad. I'm excited to go back and try the other flavors. Their combinations are very unique!

Especially places like Juju Eats which not only serves salads and fruit juices, but DELICIOUS salads and fruit juices. In my experience, I've learned that "delicious" and "healthy" don't always go hand in hand. Thankfully, Juju Eats is here to prove that sometimes, it does. The whole vibe of Juju Eats is sort of like a giant salad bar. The food comes in stainless steel bowls, and you can choose whether you want your salad as a half order or a full order. If you're like me and can't get enough of all the veggies, I'd say definitely go for the full order (even if it's a little pricey, in my opinion) but the half-order is pretty filling too. The salads are definitely not of the "tasteless green stuff" variety, and you can choose from a menu or make a salad up yourself. They have everything from nacho salads to pasta salads to some special ones like the Roast Pumpkin which has bits of fruit and nut in them. You can even choose to have your salad wrapped in pita, if you want to eat your salad on-the-go. They also have a bunch of specially-made juices, if you wanna up the "healthy food" factor with a delicious fruity drink. Juju Eats is definitely the place to go if you're a health nut looking for a fix, or a veggie hater waiting to be converted.

One of the first restaurants I tried entering 2016. I told myself I'll take eating clean more…read moreseriously, and with their salads, wraps and salad pastas, Juju Eats seemed like the perfect option. I visited their Paseo de Roxas branch for dinner on a Tuesday night, and there were only a few tables occupied, perhaps because most have their Juju meals delivered our for take-away? Anyway, no queues and waiting for a vacant table, the place was well-lit and the interiors were so modern and vibrant without being intimidating, so this was a very pleasant experience for me. The freedom to customize your food at Juju Eats is just plesantly overwhelming. Their salads can be ordered Regular- or Half-size, or as wraps. Or if you're feeling a bit more adventurous, you can practically make your own salad from among their MANY fresh ingredients you'll see at the counter. Since it's my first time, I went with my friend's recommendation, the Big Boy Wrap--romaine, grilled chicken, bacon, hard boiled egg, sun dried tomato, grated cheddar, red kidney beans, and french dressing in a wrap of regular dough (the alternative option is whole wheat dough). It was one of the more appealing choices for me because there was meat in it, unlike the other choices that contained mostly veggies, fruit, or cheese. And the flavor didn't disappoint at all. The ingredients were obviously fresh and went well together in one bite, just like a good, hearty salad, minus the overpowering dressing. They put their EVOO and vinaigrette as free-flowing condiments you can have on the side, so I tried them and they made each bite even better. My friend even put sriracha on his salad pasta. If there's anything I'm not jumping up and down about Juju Eats is the price. But then again, it's hard to find restaurants with really affordable guiltless offerings these days, especially in the Philippines. Also, don't expect to be filled especially if you have a usually big appetite (As a result, we walked to the nearby Jamba Juice stall at Eco Plaza, LOL.) Overall, I was happy with my first Juju Eats experience. In fact, I cannot wait to try every other thing in their menu, especially their salad pastas. I just don't think it's financially sustainable for me to buy from them everyday.

Don't forget to pour on the garlic sauce and you have an awesome meal that is super affordable and fills you up real good. :) Ambience-wise, well, don't expect much. It really is not fancy.
