Review from Carol K.
9/20/2011 5 Check-ins Here
This is my favourite place to get food on hospital (Foothills Medical Centre) grounds. The second best place is On The Go by the Teaching Research and Wellness building, but it's run by UofC's catering company, Chartwells. I usually like supporting small businesses, so that's why it's #1 in my books.
This little mom and pop shop is tucked away in the Women's Health Centre, main floor. They have a variety of western, middle eastern and Indian style foods. Eg: falafel wraps , donairs, chicken shawrma, Jamaican beef patties, sausage rolls, samosas, Greek salad, Caesar salad, bagels, coffee, baked goods, baklava, sandwiches, etc.
Sometimes they have lunch specials such as butter chicken, but I come here for the samosas and donairs. They have chicken, beef, vegetable and potato samosas - all delicious! Their wraps and sandwiches are made on the spot. But avoid the chai latte. It's not very good.
If you're looking for a snack or a full lunch, they have it. They have a few refrigerators with all kinds of bottled, cartoned and canned drinks. They also have packaged ice cream, protein bars, chocolate bars, gum, chips, you name it. It's a perfect one stop shop for food! They even have full-sugar, full-fat stuff that you can't find at the hospital cafeteria!
One last tip: they only take cash, and make sure you leave a tip in the "Good Karma" dish!
