You are aware of how great of a team we are. That doesn’t mean, of course, that we avoid salads, fruit, and vegetables. On the contrary, though! Every meal aims to have as much fruit and veg as possible! For us, they don’t preclude one another. The clearest illustration of this is our spring pizza, which not only comes with a tonne of fresh veggies and herbs but is also hearty and healthy after a long day at the office.
