Kcal Kitchen

With people being more aware than ever of the importance of a healthy balanced lifestyle I decided to create a blog on trying out healthy trending restaurants and cafes in Glasgow. For my first blog post I thought I would tell you a little bit about myself and review my first café.

My name is Eve I am a third-year student at Strathclyde studying Marketing. I enjoy eating healthy, trying out different sports and finding new cafes and restaurants that I love.

My hobbies include playing netball, running and strength training. I have challenged myself to try different healthy eating spots around Glasgow that are trending or that I have wanted to try for a while. I will rate each of the establishments for price, service, taste and then an overall score.

The first place that I visited in Glasgow is a popular café called Kcal. The café is located in Regent Street. The overall place is very aesthetic, it is decorated with a flower wall and has an outside and inside seating area.

On Kcals website it states it is “a nutritionally focused health kitchen & smoothie bar in Glasgow”. It has a wide range of food that will appeal to everyone including burgers, pancakes, Chinese food and also milkshakes. It also has vegan and vegetarian options.

I ordered the Salt and chilli chicken and rice and my friend ordered the zinger chicken salad, which I also tried and it tasted great. The food tasted amazing and the service was great. It was a big bonus knowing it was nutritionally dense as well. I would rate my meal a 4/5. My friend really enjoyed her salad too. For price I would say it was not too expensive but it was not cheap either (you could compare it to Nandos pricing). The service was good, the waitress we had was lovely and welcoming. Overall this was a good first place to try, you will not be disappointed.
