In the new year, everyone decides to go on a diet as if they had made a promise. I decided to go on a diet again this year, but it wasn't as easy as I thought, and there were so many delicious foods. This is the point where the decision to go on a diet while starving will go awry! Here are 5 of the best New Year's resolution restaurants for eating well and dieting

It is a vegetarian restaurant that offers a variety of dishes using eco-friendly ingredients and homemade sauces. The signature menu is “grilled vegetables and brown rice with miso sauce,†which consists of brown rice with sweet grilled vegetables and miso sauce, and a leafy vegetable salad plate, and the colorful “Avocado Brown Rice Bowl,†which is eaten like bibimbap with various toppings of vegetables, brown rice, avocado, and lemon and soy sauce dressing.
A bowl made of only vegetables creates an unimaginable healthy umami flavor. I was wondering if an apple would go well with the rice, but the crunchy sweetness goes perfectly with it. In this way, it is best used to make the best use of the characteristics of the material as it is. It's a place where you can find the splendor of the perfect combination of ingredients you often eat in a bowl that was thought to be simple, and health is a bonus.
