The Exciting Salad Bar
Greens are good. Amazing greens are better.
We all know vegetables bring colours and nutrients to the plate. And of course, you can serve most of them just the way they are. But sometimes it’s so worth it to put in a little extra effort and by doing so turning the veggies into a true experience. Enjoy our tips on how to do it!
Seasoned greens and salads
Reasons to choose seasonal food
Seasonal fruits and vegetables are tastier because they’re harvested at their peak. They get to develop and ripen at their own pace, which brings maximum flavour. Local produce also means less transports and lower carbon footprint.
Seasonal fruits and vegetables are cheaper due to the principles of supply and demand. When they're in season, there's a lot of them, which leads to lower prices. Since they’re grown locally, transportation costs are cut too.
Seasonal fruits and vegetables are healthier because they’re picked when they contain the most nutrients. As they grow in optimal conditions they’re also less reliant on chemical treatments such as pesticides.
Cabbage is always in season
We believe cabbage is a truly underrated crop. It’s tasty, healthy, versatile and it comes in a great variety of colours, textures and flavours. Since there’s always some kind of cabbage in season, you can get it cheap and with low climate impact, which leaves a nice aftertaste.
