Sproutworks has been my go-to whenever I ran out of idea for dinner since moving to West Nanjing road. It’s a fast food restaurant with tons of healthy food to choose from, and frankly speaking, I have a mix feeling about this place. 

The ordering process is pretty simple, go to the counter and choose any cold and hot dishes you like, pay, and then find a seat in the dining area. It took me a while since they have at least ten different kinds of salads and another six hot dishes.

I usually go with kale salad with pine seeds and cinoa, pumpkin with apple and raspberry, and a side of chicken breast or a soup. Salad is good here as it’s quite balanced with all the ingredients and flavors. Grill chicken is more on the dry side and the tomato soup is warm and savory. Aside from salad, they also have sandwiches, pasta, and smoothies and other drinks. 

I do appreciate the healthy concept and all the options, which is why I revisit the place, but all and all it’s like a worse version of Huntergatherer, yet with the same price range. (It’s around 65 RMB with two salads and a hot dish.) The place is clean with fast wifi, and like Huntergatherer, you’ll have to put your plate back when you finish your meal.
