Part of our happiness comes from the choices of good foods. Foods that are tasty and keep us coming back for more. But what about healthy foods like eating vegetables and tofu-based dishes?

This brings us to our list of Top 10 Healthy Eateries in Singapore, where these restaurants and cafes offer healthy, yet delicious meals.
