El Huerto

With its organic decor, peaceful ambience, and creative vegetarian dishes, El Huerto is the culinary equivalent of a pair of Birkenstocks. For all its natural kudos, it offers a hip, metropolitan dining experience with a wonderful outdoor terrace on a quiet leafy street in the heart of Providencia. Breakfast features omelets, granola, fruit smoothies, and freshly baked bread, but it's El Huerto's lunch and dinner menu that really allows the chef's skills to shine through -- traditional veggie staples are reinvented with enough panache to abate the fleshy cravings of even the most die-hard carnivores. From the cheesy asparagus strudel to an artichoke tart and an eye-catching Asian salad featuring a mélange of peas, avocado, soybeans, quinoa, and baked tofu drizzled with an Asian peanut dressing, El Huerto's dishes are healthy and delicious -- until you get to the dessert menu, that is. The double cheesecake sampler and brownie à la mode are wickedly rich and creamy. You can get back on the wagon before you break away by purchasing healthy condiments, herbal teas, and even a pair of sandals in the adjoining eco-products shop.
