Linguinis and Fit Too Travel (FTT) are pleased to present healthy meal options to assist customers in leading and maintaining a fit and healthy life.

Peter Scholes Owner/Chef believes this is a way to cater for all people who visit the restaurant.  The restaurant has fantastic variety on the menu, plenty for people to enjoy and options for people who like to have a healthier choice.  Initially the Linguini’s Light (LL) option will be on the dinner menu and we will see how the LL options go, but we are considering similar smaller options on the lunch menu. 

The entrees are fresh seafood options, the main menu option is a serve of protein (150g) with vegetables and the salads are again fresh with optional side dressings.  The lunchtime option will consist of a smaller serve of protein (90g) with vegetables and a low fat pasta option again smaller in portion size than normal serves.

Leanne Hammond, Consultant Nutritionist agrees that the choices and the ingredients on the Linguini’s Light Healthy meal options are perfect for the health conscience.  There are fresh ingredients with a minimum of cooking so all have fabulous nutritional value and are extremely healthy for us.  Basically, there is a portion of protein with vegetables and what fats are used are good fats.  Fresh pasta is used which is low GI  and fibre is always good for us!

Linguini’s only use the freshest possible ingredients, the seafood is fresh, the chicken breast is fresh and all salad ingredients are crispy fresh and all dressings are served on the side which makes these optional i.e. balsamic vinegar or Italian dressing.
