If you're bored of munching on generic supermarket salads, you may just find veggie heaven at
Govindas.
Found in Burleigh's trendy James Street, stocked with tasty vegetarian dishes, neighbouring with chic boutiques and beach views, no wonder the cafe has a line up at lunch.

Small plates of salad start at $7 - including the bean and kofta ball salad, tofu, pumpkin and sesame salad and your traditional Greek, kalamata olive and feta salad.
To mix with dishes from the hot menu you're looking at $9 for a small plate.
Hot dishes include delicious spinach and feta samosa's, kofta balls and tomato chutney, seasoned jasmine rice, potato bake, vegetable curry, and specials of semolina (wheat like pasta) and roast veges.
The quaint cafe makes use of organic and home-grown produce whenever possible, so it's a healthy lunch date.
It's not just the food that allures you in, complete with small chandeliers, soft white lounges and vintage wall paper the
new age setting is equally as inviting.

The spirited atmosphere is set with ambient tunes, framed photographs of Indian Gurus (
Eat Pray Love much?) and
a selection of inspiring literature from
Hindu Gods - for those who prefer some extra Zen with their dish.
For the sweet-tooth, cheese cake, chocolate cake and tiramisu sit-pretty behind the glass cabinets from $6.
The cafe is a popular night spot and later for kicks, head up the outlook for a bright view of the skyline.
Take away options are also available just in case the pint-sized cafe gets a little cozy.
