Healthy food in Tartu is not unattainable even when eating out!
Yes, that is true. Healthy food in Tartu, our romantic and youthful University town, where, for example, street food gems and the “best of” fatty dishes familiar from pub culture dominate in delivery orders, is a topic that deserves special attention.
One average lunch in a café, which doesn’t balance out daily calorie intake with enough steps, can still heavily lean towards fats or carbohydrates in terms of macronutrients, leaving our body deficient in daily protein and fiber needs. One thing that many healthy food advocates agree on is the principle of balanced nutrition. V Café is, of course, not a place for diet foods, as its enticing menu of artisanal pastries, baked goods, and flavorful dishes from world cuisine naturally offers plenty of opportunities for indulgence. But as the V Café team believes: The best café in Tartu is one where, in addition to tempting treats, you can also find options for a balanced and delicious lunch.
“We have known for over five years that V Café is the café in Tartu that offers the best cakes, kringels, and other artisanal pastries, but recently we have also set the ambition that healthy food could be associated with our name in Tartu. In addition to using local and high-quality ingredients, we have focused on the composition of our menu to avoid leaning too much towards oily and fat-rich dishes. Additionally, we are working to ensure that lactose-free and gluten-free options are available without compromising on taste,” confirms V Café’s marketing manager Jaanika Prangel, adding that healthy food when dining out is certainly no longer unattainable for the people of Tartu.
