Ready to put years of unhealthy living behind them, The Healthy Habit owners Kevin and Hope Yeung set out to create something that would not only encourage themselves to lead a healthier lifestyle, but inspire an entire community to do the same.
Our Food
The Healthy Habit serves up delicious, farm-fresh chopped salads featuring locally sourced ingredients, including non-GMO produce, grass-fed beef, cage-free raised poultry and small batch dressings made from scratch. Each salad is chopped to allow its flavors and textures to envelope every bite.
Our Community
At The Healthy Habit, the word “local” goes beyond the ingredients. For us, local also means being a driving force in the Hilton Head community. Creating jobs. Supporting local schools, churches and organizations. Partnering with local fitness centers. And promoting good health to our customers. These are a few of the ways we want to serve and positively contribute to the community.
Our Founders: Kevin & Hope
Kevin Yeung’s love for local ingredients began as a young child when he would accompany his mother to New York City’s Chinatown to help shop and compose family dinners. These experiences helped propel a remarkable culinary journey. In 2001, Kevin enrolled at the prestigious Culinary Institute of America where he partnered with acclaimed Chef Stephen Barber of San Francisco’s Mecca. Upon graduation, Kevin rose through the ranks at Boston’s Legal Seafoods and New York City’s Nobu, Restaurant Associates, Harlow and Skylark. Kevin is now thrilled to combine this culinary pedigree with his entrepreneurial spirit to serve the Hilton Head community.
Raised mostly in Florida and Georgia, Hope is a true southern girl who is thrilled to be back on the other side of the Mason-Dixon line. She pursued her culinary studies at Art Institute. When her instructor asked why she wanted to attend culinary school, her answer was “I want to learn to cook so I can prepare a nice meal for my future husband”. Little did she know that one day she would end up marrying a professional chef. Hope brings nearly 20 years of house management to her new management role at The Healthy Habit. Her other loves: volunteering at animal rescue groups, scuba diving, snowboarding and, of course, all things Kevin.
