Top 10 Healthy Lunch Ideas @ Sunway Pyramid

We know how stressful healthy eating can get. Back in 2017, we shortlisted our Top 10 Healthy Lunch Ideas to help you out, but a few things have changed since then. So we went around the mall again to refresh the list with what's actually good (and actually still open) today!

Simple Life

Simple Life needs no introduction if you've been coming to Pyramid for a while, it's been serving up vegetarian food here since 1992, making it one of the mall's longest-running tenants, period.

Rice lovers can go for their multi-grain fried rice or nasi lemak, while noodle fans get spoiled for choice with brown rice mee sua, bee hoon or ramen. Don't skip their fresh fruit and vegetable juices to round off the meal.

• Simple Life is located @ Sunway West First Floor.
• Prices start from around RM14.90.
• Caloric value (estimated): between 350 – 550kcal per meal.

Zen House

Craving Japanese food but trying to keep things light? Zen House serves up modern vegetarian Japanese cuisine that doesn't feel like it's missing anything.

Each dish leans into a creative mix of flavours, redefining what "vegan Japanese" can taste like without falling back on the usual tofu-and-rice combo.

• Zen House is located @ LG2.99
• Caloric value (estimated): between 300 – 450kcal per dish.

JUICY

Sometimes the healthiest lunch move is what you drink alongside it. JUICY serves up fresh, cold-pressed juices that make for a solid pick-me-up between meetings or shopping stops.

• JUICY is located @ LG1.70
• Caloric value (estimated): between 80 – 150kcal per juice.

Boost Juice Bars

Australia's favourite juice and smoothie bar is still very much a go-to at Pyramid. Load up on vitamins with Boost Juice Bar's fresh fruit and veg blends, no sugar crash required.

• Boost Juice Bars is located @ LG2. Ice Rink
• Caloric value (estimated): between 150 – 300kcal per smoothie.

Nando's

Yes, healthy eating can still be tasty. Load up on protein with Nando's flame-grilled chicken (a quarter, half or butterfly breast all work), and swap the chips for their Algarve Salad, Mediterranean Salad, or a wrap if you're after something lighter.

• Nando's is located @ LG2.56.
• Caloric value (estimated): between 350 – 550kcal for a chicken meal.

Subway

For the days you need to eat and run, Subway is still one of the easiest healthy calls in the mall. Turn any of their sandwiches into a salad and you're left with a generous serving of fresh vegetables, protein and your choice of sauce.

• Subway is located @ LG2.79
• Caloric value (estimated): between 200 – 360kcal for a salad.

Pommes Frites

Known for Belgian fries and pasta, Pommes Frites is also worth a stop if you're after something a little healthier. Their salads and grilled meats hold their own against the fries everyone comes here for.

Try the Chef's Salad with mixed greens, bbq chicken fillets, feta cheese and garlic bread with balsamic dressing, or go for the Roasted Chicken or Tarragon Chicken and swap the fries for salad.

• Pommes Frites is located @ F1.AV.196.
• Caloric value (estimated): between 200 – 300kcal for a salad and 300 – 500kcal for a chicken dish.

STUFF'D

If build-your-own bowls are your thing, STUFF'D is the one to know. Serving Mexican and Turkish cuisine, their kebabs, burritos, quesadillas, daily bowls and tacos are made fresh daily, not sitting under a heat lamp.

The whole concept is built around eating well: nutrient-dense, ethically sourced and minimally processed. Build your own bowl by picking a main protein, salad base, sauces and toppings, and you're set.

• STUFF'D is located @ LG2
• Caloric value (estimated): between 350 – 550kal for a chicken burrito

Hotpot Kitchen

Prefer to build your own meal, right down to the broth? Hotpot Kitchen lets you pick your ingredients and spice level from scratch, so you're only ever eating exactly what you choose to put in the pot.

Their ingredients are sourced free from pesticides, antibiotics and hormones, and they run a series of value set lunch menus built around a genuinely balanced meal, not just a mountain of fatty meat. Stick to lean protein, vegetables and a lighter broth (skip the creamy or oily bases) if you're keeping this one on the healthier side.

• Hotpot Kitchen is located @ OBK7, Terrace.
• Caloric value (estimated): between 400 – 700kcal for a personal bowl with lean protein and vegetables, more if you go for fattier meats.

Kakatoo

Craving something local but still want to keep it light? Kakatoo brings authentic Nyonya cuisine to Pyramid, blending Chinese heritage with Malay spices for bold, herb-forward dishes that don't rely on deep-frying to deliver flavour.

Their Nasi Kerabu is the one to go for if you're after something lighter, a herb rice salad tossed with fresh kerabu leaves, sambal and kerisik, that's as fragrant as it is filling. Everything here is halal-certified too.

• Kakatoo is located @ Oasis Zone, LG1.

Go forth & be healthy!
