Crave Healthy Habits

SO REFRESHING.
If you’re growing tired of IQ, give Crave a try. It’s located in the Richmond-​Adelaide center adjacent to the Starbucks that’s across from a Rexall.
I’ve tried two boxes and would get both again. The dressing is always provided on the side (win!) and is super tasty. All the greens are fresh and crisp. You line-​up to order, pay by cash or credit, and give ‘em your name. Then, wait to be summoned to receive your delicious lunch box.
Tried —
STEAMED: «Il Padrino» is a zucchini pasta with loaded green goodness and a delicious garlic-​free basil pesto.
COLD: «Lulumelon» is an interesting arugula salad with watermelon, chickpeas, edamame, corn, cucumber, feta cheese, mint, basil, quinoa or brown rice + avocado basil.
Do something different for your tastebuds!

If you’re looking for a quick breakfast before work, you should try their breakfast menu. Personally, I love their MORNING RUN!
It’s filled quinoa and yogurt topped with fruits, lemon curd, splash of syrup and nutmeg.
It also has almonds on it, but I prefer with pecans. So if you’re a pecan-​type-​of-​person, you should definitely ask for that.
I also asked for raisins on top to give that tangy-​sweet taste on my yogurt. If you like raisins, ask if it’s available. :)

I’m not a health but, but do like to eat healthy from time to time. If u can cook me up some healthy fast food, I’m loving it. But when it’s tiny portions of bland healthy food… Pass!
Servings sizes are like a side salad, and the salmon I added were two thumb sized pieces (albeit nicely seasoned and cooked).
For roughly $ 12, If you want a very light healthy snack, but I wouldn’t call this a meal.

Delicious healthy options. Adorable staff. Fast service. I would suggest checking your sauce to ensure it’s what should come with your meal. My fav meal is Californication. Don’t be dissuaded by the lineup, it moves fast.

New spot for healthy eaters in the west end of the path, underneath 120 adelaide, near the york/​adelaide stretch of the path. the place offers clean food with a delicious twist and has similar aesthetic characteristics.
the place is conveniently located and easily spotted near the starbucks and rexall and is also reacheable form the outside with entrance directly from nearby buildings and even a direct entrance to the path from the outside near the york/​adelaide intersection (north east corner). it has an appeal to the «clean» eating types. The place has an app which makes it easy to order food. ⁵⁄₅ for the place
the food is unprocessed (for the most part with the exception of some condiments and cream cheese), clean and very fresh. each item has a good texture, freshness, a mixture of colours (means good for vitamin variety). the kitchen is open, which makes me trust them more, compared to hidden kitchens. the problem with the path has been that it is hard to get fresh, clean, unprocessed, nutrient-​dense foods. you can argue and probably you would be right in finding a place that has some of these but not all of these criteria. food ⁵⁄₅
the service is quite good and I never have to wait on my food for long. servers are generally nice. crave has an interesting ordering system, one is that you can pay with the app, but the second interesting part is that after you order there is a distinct sound made by the speakers, indicating to the servers that an order has been received and that it is time to prepare it for the customer. service has been great overall ⁵⁄₅
reasonably priced when you consider other healthy option and definitely a great bang for your dollar!!! ⁵⁄₅
looking forward to coming back.

I am not a health-​conscious eater. In fact, even the thought of salad makes me grumpy. I would never choose healthy food over tasty food… but now I don’t have to.
The Californication steam box includes quinoa (you can choose to get brown rice), napa cabbage, snow peas, corn, peppers, and alfalfa sprouts. Sounds terrible but was delicious! All the ingredients complimented eachother well and went great with the tempeh that I had added. It filled me up without making me feel gross and helped me get through the rest of the day without snacking. No 4pm hanger surprise! It also comes with 2 sauces on the side (Next time I will opt to get 2 of the hot sauces instead of the peanuty one). A guilt-​free lunch for $ 11 taxes in. Not bad for the underground path.
Other menu options include breakfast, soup, and cold boxes.
Verdict: I am a fan and no longer believe that healthy means bland/​dull food. Will definitely go back to this place and recommend it to all.
Bonus: they have a ‘take a book, leave a book’ case close to the pick-​up area.
