Healthy Alternative is truly the best healthy alternative food delivery option we've found so far…read more(especially for their vegan options) that is both reasonable price-wise and tastes amazing (without a lot of the unsavoury additives you'll find...ahem...corn syrup). We've tried LiveFit, Yumba, WeCook...I can't believe I actually WANT to order their salads - they're that good. I've also ordered the meat options and they were great too. The only reason why I've given them 4 stars is because I wish their ordering system was more clearly explained and user friendly on the website, because I had to call/email them a couple times to figure out how to do it. Just a heads up, it's a food subscription, they offer a first time delivery discount code, call them and ask for it. You order a plan through the website then they email you the weekly menu options. They also offer some wiggle room in the delivery dates, which is awesome. Also, free delivery, yay!! I also wish they offered more non-soy vegan options, but still love that they offer delicious vegan options. As a side note, I've really loved their salad dressings & sauces so far (particular YUM to their tzatziki or aioli sauces). Definitely worth a try if you're trying to find a delicious and healthy option!

I switched to Healthy Alternative about 8 months ago when my previous food delivery service decided…read moreto hike their prices. It must have been "food fate", because I'm extremely happy that I made the change. What I like most about Healthy Alternative: --Tasty fresh food with different menu selections per delivery (I especially love their breakfast dishes) --Portion-controlled to fit my diet --Customized for special requests (i.e. No asparagus for me, please!) --Delivered right to my door twice a week --Fairly priced If and when I've had any concerns, Healthy Alternative has always been quick to respond and rectify the issue. Now that's what I call customer service! I look forward to continuing my service with HA for a long time to come. Thank you! :)

Both visits, I dropped by after work. The mall has a parking lot. It does get a bit busy at night. I backed into a spot and took the entrance on the left to head inside. There was a huge banner that led me to this food stall. You can't miss it. This place goes get busy at dinnertime. Both times, staff were pleasant and nice. York University students and non-students alike drop by for some good, cheap eats in this mall, so it makes sense why this place is so popular. There is a special for students. Between 11 am and 1 pm, they can get the son's size lasagna for $5. It's such a steal that I almost want to be a student again for this deal only... haha! You can choose between beef or vegetable lasagna. I have now had both. It takes approximately six minutes to heat up a small (son's) size of lasagna. The medium size is the dad. You can get a double of each size, depending on your hunger pangs. I don't mind waiting for yumminess. Staff were cool to come around the counter both times to hand me my food. It was such a nice touch. During my first experience, I had ordered a caesar salad. I noticed while heading to my car that I didn't have it, so I walked back. The male staffer immediately knew and was extremely apologetic. Craziness does that to all of us. I paid with a credit card both times. It allows tapping. Paying with mine was smooth. The son's size of lasagna is generous for one person to devour. I brought my lasagna home both times. It was still warm in my insulated bag. This place does four-layer lasagna. I liked that it had the perfect amount of cheese, which made it not terribly rich. It had sliced mushrooms in it. Yes! It pleased this mushroom fan. The difference between the meat and vegetarian lasagna versions was the sauce. The meat sauce in the former was excellent. It tasted homemade. My side salad was decent. I got croutons, parmesan cheese, and Italian dressing in separate small containers. The lettuce was romaine, which made my day because it was fresh and crisp. It made me happy, Getting grab-and-go lasagna is a brilliant concept. I love the lasagna here that's made with love and care. It's yummy. This place is the perfect stop to grab takeout lasagna while heading home from the office. (38)

The wonton soup tasted like most places, but the wontons with big and packed with shrimp. The beef tendon came with lots of tendon, perfectly cooked, super soft.

Located in a primarily industrial area, it's a bit hidden away and parking can be tight. The staff working were super patient and happy to let us try flavors. There were so many to try! We ended up trying a lot of flavors and bought 4. Peanut Kaya toast - has a nice light peanut butter flavor and has chunks of toast mixed in. I wished there was a bit more condensed milk sweetness but it was nice. 4/5. Tofu pudding - if you're a fan of the Asian tofu pudding dessert - this is perfect for you. It's got a perfect light hint of tofu and light sweetness. 5/5 if you love tofu dessert. It was pretty good to me 4.5/5. Ginger milk- be warned - this has a good ginger kick. If you're not into spicy, avoid! For those who like ginger milk, this is the real deal. The ginger will linger in your mouth and throat. 5/5. Green apple - tastes like green apple candy. Hits the spot for that classic green apple flavor -5/5. Lychee osmanthyus - has a really nice lychee flavor and a hint of tea to balance the sweetness - 5/5. Horlick - this one is on the delicate side, not super strong but does remind me of Horlick. 4.5/5 only because I wish it was a bit stronger. Salted egg - this one is definitely an acquired taste. It's very good as a salted egg ice cream - whether you like this or not depends if you liked salted egg. It's like someone took the salted egg out of a moon cake and transformed it into ice cream. 5/5 if you like salted egg. Pear - surprisingly not flavorful at all. Honestly, couldn't taste any pear - not sure if I just got an ice chunk out of the sorbet when tasting. Not sure I can rate this fairly. Hojicha - another great tea flavor. If you like hojicha, this is for you. 5/5. Price - 5$ for a small container and 15$ for a big pint.

The freezers for take home scoops and pints remain the same. I didn't see any of the pastries this time around and not sure if they'll bring it back. The owner remembered me. :) friendly as always, she asked me what flavours I'd want to see upon my next visit! I couldn't think of any since they've make flavours for EVERYTHING. Apparently cilantro flavour was her husband's idea LOL. But i love tea-based, fruit, and unique flavours so i'm excited for all of those. Today's visit i got these take home flavours: - salted egg yolk - ube coconut *my dad raved about it not being too sweet - hatch coffee *starlight blend* *my mom said this tasted great - tofu - mango *they didnt have this in the fridge but the owner offered to scoop out of their Backstock which was amazing of them!!! I did an upside down scoop (cone on cup) of double chocolate over genmaicha. The double chocolate tastes like a lighter version of a chocolate truffle - the owner influenced me into trying this flavour and won me over since it wasn't too rich or too sweet, which I deeply enjoyed. The genmaicha had a strong tea flavour. You could really get the nuttiness nd roasted rice flavours out of it. Both were super creamy and smooth. Will probably be back here monthly to restock.

The woman attempted to make things right, which I appreciated. I also got a coupon to use on a future order. So Sweet is located in an industrial area. The signage was difficult to see, as there was a huge van in front of the store. All I saw was the number 12. That's the store! I have consumed the following items: - Blueberry and yogurt cake box - Ovaltine cake box - Mini soft cake with homemade custard sauce and pork floss Both cake boxes were full-sized. I loved the mini soft cake with pork floss that I returned for another one. I find the cake box's container lid to be extremely tight. My prying the lid open messed up two of my gel strips on my nails. Ugh! The blueberry and yogurt cake box was yummy. I liked the fresh blueberries. The cake was flavourful. It was as if there were popping boba in one of the layers. It had the perfect sweetness. The jelly on top was a nice touch. I had some before I had the cake. It tasted like grape. It was subtle in taste and sweetness, which was lovely. The Ovaltine cake box was excellent. It also wasn't sweet, but tasted just like the drink, but in cake form. I love the mini soft cake with pork floss. The pudding was a nice touch between the two layers of cake. It wasn't sweet. I like the savoury pork floss. So good! I never got to try the cream puffs. Two will cost you $24. I feel like I need to be in a mood to splurge to try them. I'm not there yet. (94)
