The chicken salad uses sous vide chicken so the meat is less dry, the beef salad adds heartier protein, and the salad pasta puts vegetables, meat and noodles in one filling bowl. For anyone watching their diet, Prefers Diet Food is an easy choice for a meal out in Nowon. ## Good to know - **Location**: 1F, 65 Sangye-ro, Nowon-gu, Seoul (Nowon Station) - **Main menu**: Chicken salad, beef salad, chicken/beef salad pasta, rice bowls - **Protein options**: Chicken, beef, pork - **Notable feature**: Some dishes are made with sous vide chicken *as written by the visitor on Sep 19, 2026* When you're managing your diet, eating just chicken breast or salad every single time can get old fast.

The menu runs from chicken salad to beef salad, salad pasta, and rice bowls, so you can pick whatever style you're craving that day. With a name like 'diet food,' I half-expected things to be a bit bland — but once I saw the actual menu, there were more options than I expected, which made choosing genuinely fun. ![Menu board at Prefers Diet Food](https://img.superchart.com/images/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta-05-hmouo-m-900.webp) What I especially liked was having chicken salad, beef salad, and salad pasta all available, so you can choose based on whatever mood you're in that day. ![Menu listing chicken salad and beef salad](https://img.superchart.com/images/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta-06-j2ex8-900.webp) ![Menu board including salad pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta-07-axaju-900.webp) ![Menu selection guide at Prefers Nowon Station branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta-08-1xfjs-900.webp) On lighter days, the salad menu fits well, and on days you want something more filling, the pasta is a great choice. ![A full salad set on the table at Prefers](https://img.superchart.com/images/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta-09-1wnbd-900.webp) ## Chicken salad: sous vide chicken that isn't dry The chicken salad is an easy, low-pressure first order at Prefers. Fresh vegetables paired with chicken give you crunchy veggies and lean protein together, a combination that fits nicely into a diet routine. If the chicken is too dry, you tend to get sick of salad pretty quickly — but Prefers uses sous vide chicken in some dishes, which keeps it soft and easy to eat. Mixing the sauce, vegetables, and chicken together gave a different flavor with every bite, and it ended up tastier than I expected. ![Chicken salad topped with sous vide chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta-10-jcwg4-1200.webp) ![Chicken salad tossed with vegetables and sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta-11-hb7rz-900.webp) ![Close-up of a bite of chicken salad](https://img.superchart.com/images/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta-12-ttfdp-900.webp) ## Beef salad: a heartier protein option The beef salad at Prefers is a good pick when you want something richer than chicken breast. ![Beef salad with a beef steak](https://img.superchart.com/images/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta-13-13amx-900.webp) ![Beef salad with beef topping and vegetables](https://img.superchart.com/images/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta-14-etg85-900.webp) With a beef steak on top, it definitely feels more like a full meal compared to salad alone, and eating it with the vegetables cuts through the richness. There's also a beef salad pasta on the menu at Prefers, combining tender beef, vegetables and pasta into a hearty meal, according to reviews (Diningcode). Personally, on days when salad alone feels like it's not quite enough, I think the beef option would be very satisfying. ## The beef salad pasta is the standout dish The menu item that caught my eye the most was the salad pasta. Instead of eating salad and pasta separately, you get fresh vegetables, meat, and noodles all together, making it much more filling than a regular salad. The chicken salad pasta comes with chicken steak, fresh vegetables, and pasta, while the beef salad pasta adds a beef topping. Other visitor reviews of Prefers also mention how satisfying it is to eat meat, pasta, and vegetables all in one dish. Rather than avoiding carbs entirely while dieting, I think this is a great choice when you want a moderate amount of carbs, protein, and vegetables together. ## Why Prefers Diet Food works for diet-conscious eating in Nowon What I like about Prefers is that it doesn't give off that 'diet food = bland food' feeling. With chicken, beef, pork and other protein options, plus salads, pasta, and rice bowls, you can switch things up even if you visit every few days. Reviews of other branches also note the variety of proteins across salad, pasta and rice options. (Diningcode) It's not an awkward place to eat alone, and it fits well for a clean lunch or dinner. Above all, if you dislike getting hungry soon after a salad-only meal, I'd recommend going for a chicken or beef option. If you're looking for a meal that's light but still filling, or need a restaurant option while managing your diet, Prefers Diet Food is worth a visit as a salad restaurant in Nowon. - Chicken salad → light and clean - Beef salad → hearty with meat - Salad pasta → flavor and fullness together Choosing this way lets you enjoy eating out without losing sight of your diet. ## Where it is - Prefers Diet Food Nowon Station branch (프레퍼스 다이어트 푸드 노원역점) - 1F, 65 Sangye-ro, Nowon-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 노원구 상계로 65 1층 - 37.6563603, 127.0622597 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%94%84%EB%A0%88%ED%8D%BC%EC%8A%A4%20%EB%8B%A4%EC%9D%B4%EC%96%B4%ED%8A%B8%20%ED%91%B8%EB%93%9C%20%EB%85%B8%EC%9B%90%EC%97%AD%EC%A0%90/@37.6563603,127.0622597,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@at-mealtime/prefers-diet-food-nowon-salad-pasta/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
