Chopped Leaf has opened another location in Calgary. This one is in Deerfoot Meadows where Teriyaki Experience used to be.
I arrived just before 12:00 to find a line about 10 people deep, with another 6 or so people already ordered and waiting for their meals. The line did not move very fast and all said and done it took me a half hour to get my salad.
I went with the southwest salad with spinach instead of romaine. I chose the full size salad, grabbed a peanut butter cookie, and tried their Chopped water of the day which was orange mango. The salad was really good, nice and filling, and they don't douse it with dressing. The cookie though was awful. It had an off flavour like the plastic wrap it came in or something. It was definitely not worth the $2.50(?) I paid. The water was fine.
Overall this was an expensive lunch for $17 that took 45 minutes from the time I walked in to the time I was done eating. While I like these types of QSR's as a healthy alternative to the regular fast food options, they're just not quick enough and always a little too high on the price point for what they are.
