If youre craving comfort food but cant face another rich meal or cope with a fast expanding winter waistline, Geisha Wok and Noodle Bars new wellness menu offers a welcome alternative.

Devised by Conrad Gallagher to satisfy desires of comfort while maintaining good health, the winter wellness menu offers diners three set menus with an array of healthy, oriental-inspired dishes.

Look forward to energy-giving combinations such as apple and ginger juice with shredded mint; tuna sashimi with lychees and melon, mizuna and lemon grass aioli; or a trio of dim sum including spicy crab with chilli and purple basil, tofu and shitake mushroom and spinach, rocket and watercress.

A healthy appetite is sure to be satisfied with generous mains which include bamboo-steamed free range chicken in a pepper broth with wok-seared bean-sprouts, bok choy, corn, cabbage, coriander, mint and radish, served on whole-wheat soba noodles; or wok-seared sesame-crusted yellow fin tuna, with bamboo steamed Asian lettuces, Chinese mushrooms and butternut in a light coconut chilli and ginger broth.

All three set menus is rounded off with a delicate dessert of marinated mango with orange blossom and green chilli, toasted coconut and lime sorbet in a bento box.

The winter wellness menu is available at R185 per person.
