Tuck Shop Cafe Perth

Came for lunch but ordered yummy breakfast food. Iced coffee.





Carrot juice was light and sweet for $7.5. Diabetes and carbs see below. 





Churizo with pork belly $19.5 






and some greens with salad nicoise $15.5.  





Good range on menu. 









Sat outside as it was very busy inside. Testament to the good food. Iced coffee $6.5 was thick and strong. Salad was fresh and I had the dressing on the side.

The churizo was crunchy and the pork belly was pan fried after roasting - the only way we can explain the extra crunch.Check out kept saying we ordered 'nasi goreng' when I said we had the "nicoise". Ok it was rush hour and the place was packed.

The Harvard health site has 5 simple steps to preventing Type 2 diabetes see harvard.edu/nutritionsource/diabetes-prevention/



1. Less television and more exercise helps reduce weight gain and reduces risk for diabetes due to a modern diet.
2. Smaller portions can help keep weight in check and reduce risk of diabetes.
3. Avocados, nuts and seeds contain healthy fats that can reduce the risk of weight gain and risk of diabetes. Olive oil has fats that are helpful in reducing risk of diabetes.
4. Vegetarian proteins, including whole grains, and leafy vegetables keep you full and nutritionally adequate so reduces risk of obesity and diabetes.
5. Reduce your intake of refined carbs, sugary drinks - white breads, white pasta and confectionary to reduce wild fluctuations in your blood sugar levels.
For light and easy work out try walking round the block for 30 mins or climb up & down a couple of flights of stairs for 20 mins.
