Keep Cool With Fruit and Veggies

Lychee Salads: Fresh and Chemical-Free

Lychee Fruit Bar is taking its healthy mindset philosophy to new heights with the launch of its fresh salads. Made with hydroponically grown greens that don’t touch soil, Lychee’s salads are chemical- free. With a 24-hour policy, salad vegetables are freshly picked from the farm and transported to Lychee’s factory where they are washed and sorted, and sent to Lychee’s branches on the same day.

A strict five-stage chemical-free washing and sorting process ensures that vegetables maintain freshness, crispness, and nutritional benefits. The cleansing process begins in a Jacuzzi where jets separate the leaves, the vegetables are then moved to a conveyor belt where any remaining dust is removed, followed by a second washing with purified water on a second conveyor belt. The third stage entails a sorting of defected vegetables, and finally, vegetables undergo a drying process via a blower to maintain freshness.

The five salads available at all Lychee branches are: Goat Cheese and Beets (made with arugula, goat cheese, roasted beets, mushroom, and balsamic); Lychee’s Tuna Salad (made with green/red Batavia, tuna, red onion, sweet corn, olive, and herbal lemon); Clean Green (made with green Batavia, mushroom, sweet corn, roasted beets, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, sliced carrot and balsamic); Quinoa Steak (made with green/red Batavia, quinoa, beef, mushroom, roasted bell pepper and balsamic); and King Kale (made with kale, green Batavia, grilled chicken, Parmesan, croutons and Caesar dressing).
