Eating out on a diet: where to go near Yongsan Station?

The writer, who is dieting ahead of a wedding, picked Prepace Diet Food Yongsan right by Yongsan Station. The wedding is getting close, so I've been on a diet lately. And honestly, the hardest part of dieting is eating out. I want to eat healthy, but when I'm actually out, a salad alone feels like not enough, and regular restaurants are too heavy on calories.

So this time I went to Prepace Diet Food Yongsan, where you can have a healthy meal near Yongsan Station. After trying it, it didn't feel like a weight-management meal that gives up on taste. It felt like a meal that gets both health and flavor right. It's also great for eating alone, and I liked it for an office lunch or a post-workout meal, so let me walk you through it in detail.

What's on the menu at Prepace?

Prepace Diet Food isn't just a salad place. It has plates, salads, poke and more, so you can choose to suit your taste! Every menu item balances protein, carbs and vegetables, which makes it perfect for a diet.

I got takeout to share with friends, and ordered three items: the chicken plate, the pork plate and the chicken cobb plate.

Chicken plate ₩7,900: won't the chicken breast be dry?

The Prepace chicken plate is ₩7,900, and the first thing I noticed was how moist the chicken breast was. Say "health food restaurant" and many people picture dry chicken breast, but Prepace was nothing like that! It was so soft and juicy that it felt like eating a regular chicken dish.

And above all, the vegetables were really fresh! The crisp texture made the whole thing taste great, and it came with sweet pumpkin and potato salad too, so there was a nice variety of flavors. I found out that Prepace Diet Food gets fresh vegetables supplied every day!

Pork plate ₩9,900: how's the pork texture?

The Prepace pork plate (₩9,900) was better than I expected too! The pork wasn't tough but cooked moist, so the texture was lovely, and the clean, mild flavor went really well with the vegetables.

I tend to get bored of salad quickly, but with meat, a variety of vegetables and side dishes together, I could enjoy it to the very end. I really feel like the days of eating tasteless food just because you're managing your diet are over.

Chicken cobb plate ₩8,900: the tastiest of the three

Personally, the tastiest was the ₩8,900 chicken cobb plate! It was generously packed with fresh vegetables and protein, so it was plenty for a meal, and with bits like corn kernels here and there, you get a variety of ingredients and textures.

Above all, the overall composition was really good. It isn't just chicken breast and salad dumped in a box. It balances many ingredients, so it felt like a genuinely healthy meal.
