Linsey, a former financial management graduate and marketing professional, left her corporate career last year to follow her passion for healthy living. She's returning to her hometown of Eindhoven to open The Happiness Café next month. As a special preview, she's sharing one of the standout recipes from her menu.
Linsey says: 'At The Happiness Café, we use 100% natural products—no E-numbers, artificial fragrances, colors, or flavorings. Just pure, honest ingredients, mostly from organic farms. Our motto is Home of Healthy Living: a welcoming 'second home' for everyone, whether managing allergies, following a specific diet, or simply passionate about wholesome, delicious food.'
Our mission is to prove that healthy eating can be exciting and flavorful. We draw inspiration from global trends in New York, Hong Kong, and Bali to bring innovative dishes to the Netherlands. Alongside chia pudding and classic oatmeal, our breakfast menu features smoothie bowls—still a hidden gem here, but packed with nutrition and flavor we can't keep to ourselves!
What is a smoothie bowl?
It's a thick smoothie served in a bowl. You get all the vitamins and minerals, but eating it with a spoon encourages chewing, activating mouth enzymes for better nutrient absorption. Top it with favorites like organic muesli, nuts, coconut chips, or chocolate chunks.
Try our 'Raw Chocolate & Nuts Bowl'—100% natural, vegan-friendly, and perfect any time of day.
