Bergen County Healthy Eats

We recently had the pleasure of talking with Robin Decicco, holistic nutritionist! She gave us the inside scoop on the healthiest and most delicious dishes right here in Bergen County! Find out what she had to tell us below!

One of my all-time favorites organic markets is Healthway! Healthway is an organic food market in Tenafly that serves organic products, juices, smoothies, and delicious meals made from scratch! On those busy work days when cooking lunch at home just isn’t an option, I always recommend picking up one of Healthway’s prepared meals for lunch! Healthway’s meals are all made from natural ingredients, plus they require no cook time whatsoever! One of my favorite plant based go-to orders from Healthway is the vegetarian chili soup with an order of the curried chickpeas on the side!

Another one of my favorite restaurants is Hanami in Cresskill and Westwood! Hanami is a traditional Japanese restaurant that includes naruto rolls on their menu! Naruto rolls are sushi rolls wrapped in cucumber without rice! My go-to order is an order of the seaweed salad to start and an order of the Hanami naruto roll for dinner.

You can never go wrong with a date night at the Sear House in Closter, NJ. It’s perfect for a night out with your man because the menu ranges from tuna tartare, to a 20 oz ribeye steak! Plus they offer outdoor seating, so get ready to bundle up for your outdoor date night! My go-to order is always the tuna tartare to start and Chilean sea bass over broccoli rabe for dinner.

Last but certainly not least, Brasserie in Tenafly, NJ. Brasserie is a quaint French American bistro with a variety of delicious healthy options on their menu! Ranging from fluffy egg white omelets to delicious salads, they’ve got it all! My go-to dinner order is the roasted cauliflower to start and the chop chop salad with chicken! https://www.instagram.com/tenaflybrasserie
