What do y'all eat between lunch and dinner? Lunch in Hong Kong is early: office workers are scurrying around at noon time to beat the crowds. Simultaneously, long working hours are de rigeur in this city. We dine typically at 8:30-9pm. Going for 8 hours without food is quite dire. Coffee shops only seem to have unhealthy cakes. Being a vegetarian also limits choices available in these cafes.
What's a person to do if they want healthy yet filling alternatives? If you have access to a good blender, I recommend a super smoothie. It can have any combination of fruits and vegetables, but I suppose its good to always have 1) spinach or other green leaves, and celery 2) high GI and substantial fruit like pears or bananas 3) vegetables which add sweetness like carrots or beetroots 4) perhaps a dash of ginger for a kick that's different? I whipped it up with ice to make it a nice long cold drink and viola! here it is! Not sure how long its going to keep me full and replete, I will definitely let you know!
