6 Restos That Help Us Stick To Our Keto Diet
Sticking to a diet can be hard especially a keto diet. But not to worry, here are places that can help us stick to them.
Keto diets usually mean removing carbs from our diet. We don’t eat rice, stay away from all the delicious kakanin, and scrutinize every dessert served to us. We moms always want to get our old bodies back. The body we had before having kids and a body strong enough to address all our kids’ needs. So, we resort to keto diets to break down the extra flab. But since some keto recipes are hard to prep, here are some places that can support our keto diet.
1. The Sugar-Free Bakery
As its name states, everything in that bakery is sugar-free which means it can also be keto diet friendly. For those who have milk-tea cravings, the Sugar-Free Bakery has sugar-free milk tea and cronuts to enjoy. If you want something more savory, they have a Vegetarian pizza. Their pasta is good too; they have Seaweed Pesto Pasta and Lemon Mushroom Pasta which is usually a no-no for diabetics and those on a keto diet but, they made it. It’s free delivery if you order more than PHP 1500 worth of goodies which we’re sure won’t be hard.
2. Cyma
Owned by Chef Robby Goco, the beloved Greek restaurant Cyma has cauliflower rice available for those sticking to a Keto diet. Their Lamb Souvlaki is one of their most beloved dishes and if you’re not into grilled, they also have a Greek version of Lamb Stew. They have multiple branches with the well-known ones coming from EDSA Shangri-La Mall and Trinoma, making it easy for us to just Grab or FoodPanda it.
3. SaladStop!
SaladStop! has a lot of keto diet friendly options such as the Big Bird which has avocado and turkey ham and the Omega 3 Baby. Both salads are chuck-loaded with all the good “fats” or the Omega-3 fats which is what keto diets rely heavily on. To satisfy our sweet tooth, they even have Chia Puddings which are recommended for keto diets because of their fiber content and Omega-3 fats. For some, you’ll just have to remove the mango or the banana since they’re usually the ones with high sugar content.
4. Brother’s Burger
We remember Brother’s Burgers for their big burgers but they recently introduced their lettuce wraps. Although they cut down their menu to simpler recipes, their lettuce wraps make it easier for us to enjoy their juicy burgers. Their Black Angus Burger‘s one of their more gourmet burgers but for those who don’t like beef, there’s their Lamb Burger as well. Just don’t forget to convert them into lettuce wraps before checking out!
5. Gourmet Gypsy Art Café
Currently located in Maginhawa, the Gourmet Gypsy Art Café has a nice hipster touch with some good keto options also. They have a Cauliflower Paella — a ketogenic twist to the traditional Spanish favorite. But for those who want Singaporean food, Gourmet Gypsy has Keto Laksa wherein she uses the same noodles she uses for her Jap Chae: shirataki noodles! They also have some vegan and vegetarian keto diet friendly options for their burgers if you want that meaty taste.
6. The Wholesome Table
If you’re looking for a fancy place for a date but want to stick to your Keto diet, the Wholesome Table has a lot of Keto diet food options. They also have a good winery if you want to make it a classy, romantic dinner. They have the Greek Burger which they offer to turn into a lettuce wrap if you really want to go gluten-free. Their comfort ramens are considered refined-sugar-free (the kind of sugar we’re trying to avoid!) and even have pastries and muffins that are guilt-free.
More Keto Diet Friendly Choices
One of the biggest problems of sticking to a ketogenic diet is that Philippine cuisine itself isn’t ketogenic friendly. It’s hard to convert a cuisine that relies heavily on rice. It’s also hard to start ketogenic diets in the household because it’ll affect the expenses and it takes more prep time for some keto recipes. But these restaurants at least help make your journey on a keto diet easier. That way, if you’re out of time or too tired to cook, you’ll have these places to keep you on your diet.
