Fresh Booth

When Bön D raves about something, you listen. Well I do. LOL I took my mom here for a work day lunch and wasn’t sure what to expect. But we both ordered the Rio burrito and enjoyed how… well, fresh it tasted. A good mix of rice, beans, corn, red onion and decent chunks of chicken. The sweet onion sauce kicked up the flavours just enough to provide the zest. I had the strawberry smoothie and that was yummy, although a bit high on the citrus content.
Two girls behind the counter weren’t super bubbly which is unusual in new establishments because I feel it’s needed when most clientele is probably new and need a bit of guidance. And the layout of the prep area seems odd as they walk around a bit too much with the bowls of your meal ingredients.
And while there I think the owner showed up and helped himself to things in the kitchen. Hopefully he did the proper cleaning of hands and whatnot. Appearances matter, dude and you never know who is watching.

First time here! Heard they had great vegetable meals.
Was a tad early so they gave me a menu while they switched over to lunch.
I ordered the Panago bowl… wow. Tons of avocado, cheese, tomatoes on top of rice. I ordered chicken to go with it but there was so much favour I did not need it
Very filling… finishing was questionable at one point!
I will return. Excellent value for the money, nice ambience. Only thing off was the dance music :)
Highly recommend!

Good quick lunch place, and they carry Pulp&Press juices so that’s a definite plus. They advertise their fresh ingredients, but for the price you don’t get a whole lot. They use a lot of filler which sucks, as more veggies would definitely improve their bowls. Overall a good lunch place for something healthy.

So weird, I wrote up an update last week but it got lost somewhere in Unilocal!land. :/
Anyhow Shelley C, this is for you. I have been back and tried a few more salads.
Thai is my new favourite, I substitute chicken for the shrimp at no extra cost. The sweet thai dressing with the crisp wontons on a bed of crunchy spinach with cucumber & carrot is delightful.
Also dove into the Powerhouse, steak, roasted red peppers… you can’t go wrong. The steak edges were a bit dry for me but the dressing made it fine. Also the smoothie has improved, much more strawberry tasting and now they have hours posted so… full five finally.
