Usually before lunch, I am in good spirits to eat something healthy for lunch so I can indulge over dinner as dinner to me is the most important meal of the day. I know that nutritionist say that breakfast is the most important meal but for me the mornings are just a coffee and be quick to go to the office so I can leave it again as early as possible. And then again, how good can a healthy breakfast be? I&#8217;m not talking about scrambled eggs and bacon or cream cheese bagels with salmon. I&#8217;m thinking muesli, fruit and yogurt. How am I supposed to enjoy that more than a dinner? Dinners on the other hand for me are full of great tastes, socialising, talking about the day with Mr. C. and enjoying a glass of white wine (or two or three).<\/p>\n<p>But getting back to lunch&#8230; especially on warm days I&#8217;m really in the mood for a salad. The salad bar that I usually go to offers two different kinds that you can top with ingredients of your choice. They have something like a dozen of different toppings of which sweet corn, spicy olives and tuna are my fav ones. I really do like that salad but the problem is, that on the way to the salad place I have to pass these babies:<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 50%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-896 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/?attachment_id=897'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Lunch-2-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Lunch-2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Lunch-2-440x440.jpg 440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/?attachment_id=898'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/lunch-3-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/lunch-3-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/lunch-3-440x440.jpg 440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/?attachment_id=899'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Lunch-4-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Lunch-4-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Lunch-4-440x440.jpg 440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/?attachment_id=900'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Food-1-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Food-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/thepreciousthings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Food-1-440x440.jpg 440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>The cakes are quite easy to resist as I&#8217;m more of a salty person. But you cannot imagine what torture it is, to pass the bratwurst place. That smells kills me every time I walk past. And sometimes the bratwurst wins. I am not exactly the queen of restraint. To me, the bratwurst of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.belgrill.ch\/\" target=\"_blank\">Sternen Grill <\/a>is the best in town also if other people are of different opinion. It&#8217;s served with a famous <a href=\"http:\/\/www.baeckerei-gold.ch\/\" target=\"_blank\">Goldbuerli<\/a> and the most spicy mustard in the world. You know, that kind that goes up your nose.
