| - I study and work at OCAD so I'm pretty much eating here at least once a week. I've only ever gotten salads and sandwiches- both of which are usually very satisfying. The sandwiches are basic sandwiches, but they're quite fresh and well portioned. The salad is basically "fill as much as you can before the lady shuts the box" picked from an assortment of various vegetables, pasta salads, fruits and side dishes. The place is Korean-run so they'll have things like kimchi, kimchi pancakes, etc. Most of the regular items are good, sometimes they'll throw in something new and it'll be a complete hit or miss (in my experience). This place is great for getting a healthy and relatively cheap meal in the area, and even in comparison to the rest of the Grange. You definitely get your moneys worth. (The best is when your box has gotten so full they have to wrap an elastic band around it just to keep the box closed eurherheherh)
Like with most places in the Grange, my main gripe is inconsistency. Some days you get a better meal than others and there's really no predicting it. Some days you'll come in early and still manage to get an item that smells like it's gone bad (I just bit down on a sour piece of watermelon before writing this review), and some days the lady will just pile on extra fruit for you. All in all though- for the price you pay you never really get a *bad* meal, so it's still always worth it.
SIDENOTE... am I the only one who finds the lady who works at the counter absolutely terrifying?? (is she always there, or is she just always there when I'm there..?) I avoid going at busy points (the golden noon lunch period) just because she gets so much more intimidating when there's a line up behind you.
