As long as the food is palatable is all that really matters. I spent 36 hours in the ER this past week and had an opportunity to eat some of the food offerings. Meal #1 was a turkey burger. It was delivered quickly (about 1/2 hour) and was tasty but dry. The bun was fresh. Meal #2 was a greek salad, hummus wrap, and a cookie. The portion size was enormous, the hummus wrap was freshly made and very tasty, and the cookie was a Lorna Doone (one of my personal faves) In all, the food delivery was adequate and good. I would rather never need to sample any hospital food again, but if I did, I would definitely order the "meal #2" again.

Well in just a couple hours we were able to cover SO much ground. From making a delicious salsa and homemade chips, to a steak and a chicken, even farro with caramelized onions. Not only did I learn tons of REALLY helpful skills that I've already been implementing, but I had delicious food that lasted me for a handful of meals THAT I HELPED MAKE! They brought all their own ingredients and left my kitchen completely spotless (possibly cleaner than how they found it) I am so thankful to these two and I look forward to our next lessons.

When my husband and I first decided to find a personal chef we thought "maybe this will help, we…read morecan't keep eating out, it's killing us." Neither of us really knew what a personal chef service looked like. We love cooking but we didn't/don't have time during the week to cook. We hoped we'd get more vegetables into our diet at a minimum. That not eating out would mean less of the white devils (sugar, salt). I reached out to The Skinny Beet in a frenetic and desperate state last December. Since they've entered our lives the sun is shining, the clouds have parted and Mondays are happy (re: they are miracle workers). We have been a weekly client with The Skinny Beet for almost 3 months now. At the end of 1 month we reached out to them and shared a list of each positive benefit directly or indirectly related to hiring them as personal chefs. I would like to share this list with you (reader of my review): 1. My husband and I spend more time together. 2. We portion control better. 3. We work out more (have time to work out). 4. We feel better: less groggy, less irritable, more energy. 5. The food they make tastes flavorful, wholesome and satisfying. We get to eat our favorite cuisines with less of the sugar/salt and more grain/vegetable variety than what we know how to cook. 6. We waste less. 7. The brain space we wasted thinking about what to eat, what to cook, when to go pick things up, crap-I-forgot-an-ingredient --- Poof! Gone. Which, working full time while part time grad school, any and all brain space I can allocate to my work is priceless for me. From Week One: Flexibility with schedule and menu planning was made easy for us - We come home and our kitchen tools and pans lovingly (and somewhat expensively) acquired over time are clean - There are delicious dishes made with quality ingredients ready for devouring in the fridge. We are so grateful for the difference The Skinny Beet has made in our quality of life. Seriously, I wasn't kidding: Miracle Workers.

However being in…read morethe suburbs of Boston, it gave me the opportunity to try other cuisines, and I was excited to see this authentic Turkish restaurant not far from my hotel. Ironically, I found this place when I was looking up ice cream. They serve authentic Turkish ice cream, and it's been something I've been wanting to try. In addition to the ice cream, I ordered Manti (Turkish dumplings) and Uludag soda (which they say is a Turkish ginger ale). I loooooooooved the Manti. While the dumplings were filled with meat, the dish overall felt light since each dumpling is like the size of a quarter. The dumplings had a nice chew, and the sauces made the dish rich yet creamy. The Uludag soda was definitely much lighter than a ginger ale. Tasted like a light citrusy drink, and it's less sweet than American sodas. The ice cream had a nice pull and chew, although it didn't look as stretchy as Turkish ice creams I've seen. Nice amount of pistachio flavor throughout. I came on a weekday lunch, so there was ample seating inside. Ordering is done via a QR code on your table or on a tablet stand in the middle of the restaurant. Service was quick and friendly, making it a great experience overall.

I'm not sure what they offer on their regular menu because they only gave us the happy hour menu. I wonder if you're able to order something from their regular menu during happy hour? Anyways, we got three things from their "Shy Hour" menu: - Chipotle cheddar bacon smash burger ($10) - ranch fried chicken sandwich ($10) - 12 chicken bites (60¢/each) + sauce flight $2 Chicken bites were good. Not dry at all & I highly recommend paying the extra $2 for the sauce flight to try all the sauces they have. The chicken bites do come with a choice of one sauce though & is 60¢ per extra sauce. Burgers were cooked well. They were juicy & not dry at all. Very good flavor for both! I really liked the chipotle cheddar bacon burger. It was slightly sweet (maybe had a bit of maple syrup or honey?). Both burgers came with fries. The fried were your classic frites; reminiscent of McDonald's fries to us but less salty & crispier. Overall, I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would, since I'm not much of a chicken fan. I would for sure come back again, especially for their happy hour! Great deals & nice portion sizes.

We currently get AlFreshCo for one meal per week, and it's nice to look forward to an interesting, local, seasonal, meat-free dish every week. Initially we were thinking we'd use it for a weekday lunch, but we find even with most of the prep done for you that some of the dishes take a while to cook, so tend to save it for a dinner instead (some of the time estimates are pretty accurate, others are definitely low-balled in our experience). There are 4 recipes to choose from each week, and we like the international bent of the meals- it's fun to have the opportunity to make and eat things you don't regularly see, like koshari or an African peanut stew, and even the more common food items (noodles, dal) are still nice to have. We've been generally pretty happy at the end result- it's all been pretty solid, nothing that has made our jaws drop or anything but still nice for what it is. It's also appealing to cut down on our carbon footprint, not only in the process (less packaging, bike delivery) but in the food itself (locally sourced, no meat). Would recommend.
