Sometimes, eating healthy doesn’t pay. It’s usually expensive eating healthy outside, but Glow Cafe at Supernature takes it to a whole new level. For this salad and latte, the bill came up to $26.30. I don’t care if everything is organic or not, this was definitely not what I was expecting when I saw “Small salad - $15” on the menu and was informed I could pick two different salads on the display. Turns out they charge the salads by weight, so 1kg of salad costs $60 and this mix of kale and capsicum salad, soba noodle salad and firm tofu was 330g. Hmm. The salads were pretty good though. The kale was definitely massaged so it did absorb the dressing and was much softer and easier to swallow than raw kale. The cherry tomatoes were incredibly sweet. I have no idea what variety they use, but it’s amazing. I’m still not sold on the price just because of that though. The soba noodle salad was pretty ordinary, and the tau kwa, though delicious, was quite ordinary as well.

I actually really liked the latte. The blend wasn’t too acidic nor bitter, and it had a smooth, well/rounded mouthfeel. The latte was reasonably priced at $5.50 with an additional $1 for soy milk. I guess if I was around the area I’d just go for the coffee, but definitely not getting ripped off by the salad again.
