At London Paris, protein-rich dishes are seamlessly integrated into the main menu, rather than confined to a section of their own. Among the most substantial is the fitness bowl, a generous composition of chicken, buckwheat, poached egg and avocado. Delivering an impressive 57 grams of protein per serving, it can comfortably stand in for a full lunch. For those following a ketogenic diet — or simply favouring dishes with minimal carbohydrates — the keto plate combines salmon, eggs, avocado and rocket, providing around 28 grams of protein.
Hani has taken the protein brief rather seriously, devoting an entire section of the menu to it. Each dish comes with a full nutritional breakdown, sparing diners the mental arithmetic. The protein breakfast — cottage-cheese waffle, tuna dip and fresh salad — delivers 38 grams, while the farmhouse-style chicken waffles with vegetable ragout weigh in at an impressive 48. Protein milk can be added to porridge or swapped into any drink; there are protein shakes, too. Even the latte, cappuccino and matcha pull their weight, offering up to 22 grams of protein per serving.
Delish has added a health-conscious chapter to its main menu, with the build-your-own bowl as its centrepiece. Diners can assemble their own from a choice of base, protein, vegetables and extras, or opt for one of the kitchen’s ready-made combinations. The bowl of roast potatoes, sous-vide chicken, cabbage and rocket, for example, delivers a substantial 32 grams of protein for a measured 535 calories. The drinks list is equally attuned to the brief: coconut matcha fortified with protein, a spirulina smoothie, and a strawberry-and-banana blend with an extra protein boost.
Roots is a reassuring place for anyone who likes to keep a close eye on what they eat. Almost every dish comes with a full breakdown of calories, protein, fat and carbohydrates, making it easy to put together a balanced meal in minutes. The menu also features probiotic foods and low-calorie sauces, while lactose-free, gluten-free and sugar-free options are clearly marked. The drinks follow the same healthy lead, with smoothies made with spirulina, collagen and vitamin C — an easy way to add both protein and other beneficial nutrients to your diet.
At Coffella, calories, protein, fat and carbohydrates are listed alongside every dish, making the menu refreshingly easy to navigate. The protein waffles — made with either cottage cheese or spinach — provide a versatile starting point for breakfast. Add your choice of toppings, with sugar-free jams available for something sweeter. Sandwiches, wraps and matcha puddings also come with a full nutritional breakdown, making it simple to build a well-rounded, protein-rich breakfast or lunch from just a few items — without spending too much time on the maths.
