Of course, there are plenty of more known restaurants in the greater Orlando area that serves healthy meals like the Reel Fish Coastal Kitchen & Bar, Amatista Cookhouse at Loews Sapphire Falls Resort, Ethos Vegan Kitchen, The Sanctum Café and a lot others, but few of them offer authentic Mediterranean diet cuisines.

What Health Experts Say About the Mediterranean Diet?
Ever since the Mediterranean diet was discovered in the 1960s and subsequently exposed to the west, more and more health experts rally behind it and promote it as a natural alternative to modern invasive medicine. As it turns out, the Mediterranean diet does a whole lot more than any pill or medical procedure ever could! It can reverse the effects of chronic illnesses like CVD, diabetes; Alzheimer’s and even some cancers, as well as serve as a preventive maintenance for any person who has these chronic diseases.

Avalon Pockets did not set out to serve Mediterranean dishes for this purpose, but we are proud that our food can make people healthy. Just take a look at some of the quotes of medical doctors on the Mediterranean diet:

“One of the best things you can do for your heart is follow the Mediterranean diet, there’s also growing evidence that it may help people live longer.” – Dr. Gabelman, assistant clinical professor of medicine at Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons

“This diet is successful and beneficial because it emphasizes healthy fats and proteins, like legumes, nuts, fish and olive oil. Using these foods in place of simple carbohydrates and saturated fats will boost energy, shed weight and ultimately prevent heart disease.” – Jay Mohan, DO, chief cardiology fellow at McLaren Macomb-Oakland Medical Centers

“A Mediterranean-way of eating has also been proven to reduce obesity, prevent asthma and autoimmune disorders, and prevent pre-atherosclerotic changes in major arteries in children.” – Eric Zacharias MD and author of The Mediterranean Diet: A Clinician’s Guide

“When people think of the Mediterranean diet, they think of a heart-healthy diet, but really, the Mediterranean diet has been shown to prevent Alzheimer’s disease, macular degeneration and cancer as well.” – Dr. Timothy Harlan, editor-in-chief of Health meets Food: the Culinary Medicine Curriculum

Well, we can give you no particular reason, except for our food has the best health benefits and they’re also very delicious. After all that’s been said and done, it really comes down to your preference about what kind of food a particular restaurant serves, its proximity to your residence (you’d want to be able to drive to a diner in 5-10 minutes time and eat after waiting another 2-5 more minutes), affordability, ambience and comfortability.
