About Healthy Dining
In 1990, HEALTHY DINING began working with chefs and restaurateurs in Southern California, guiding them in creating, serving and promoting a selection of healthier dishes as part of their menu mix. To assist health-conscious Southern California residents, the team published a series of Healthy Dining guides, which identified the healthier menu choices, along with corresponding nutrition information, at restaurants in Los Angeles, San Diego, and Orange County. In 2004, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) awarded HEALTHY DINING a grant to expand the program nationwide through HealthyDiningFinder.com.
