The Good Co. is a newly opened healthy fast-food cafe with a twist, serving what it calls \u201chonest food\u201d. The Good Co. prides itself with an aim to improve one\u2019 s quality of life through mindful and healthy eating.<\/p>\n

The Good Co.\u2019s key mission is to change mindsets on fast food, which is long known to be fattening and heavily processed. The Good Co. intends to offer its customers a healthier fast food option of natural, nutritious, sustainable and organic ingredients which it hopes will improve one\u2019s quality of life.<\/p>\n

\"TheThe idea for The Good Co. cafe began five years ago when its Founder, Miss Levy Li (Miss Malaysia Universe 2008)moved back to Malaysia from the US where healthy food is widely available and had difficulty finding healthy plant-based cafes in Malaysia. The founder herself started to be on a full plant based diet after her dad was diagnosed with colon cancer and she saw all this happening around her \u2014 people getting sick, putting on weight and generally not being healthy. Hence The Good Co. was born with the intention of serving freshly prepared daily healthy meals pre-packed in the most convenient way to indulge on the go. Moreover, The Good Co.\u2019 s food is inspired by Levy\u2019 s journey during the pageant and her travels abroad centred on the art of healthy and clean living.<\/p>\n

\"Founder\u201cOur body deserves to be nourished with natural healthy ingredients and detoxed from meat overload. Based on internet research, Malaysia has one of the highest meat consumption in Asia Pacific which represents differently from the healthy living food pyramid guide, that shows more than half of one\u2019s daily diet should actually consist of vegetables, fruits, nuts and grains,\u201d said Miss Levy Li, Founder of The Good Co. She added, \u201cAs such, The Good Co. strongly believes the choices we make about “what we eat”, “where it comes from” and “how it’s prepared” have a direct and powerful impact on the health of individuals, communities and the environment.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the launch, The Good Co. offered guilt-free samplers including salads in a pot, oats jar, artisan sandwiches, smoothie bowls, soups, cold pressed juices and locally roasted coffee. Other than fresh food, The Good Co. also has its own-made \u2018 Honest\u2019 products, ranging from granolas, peanut butter, raspberry rose jam and much more to come.<\/p>\n\r\n
