I visited the Olly Fresco's franchise located downstairs from Simon's department store in the tunnel linking McGill and Peel Metro stations. I was interested in trying a new place that had a menu offering food that I could pick and choose according to my taste. They serve hot foods such as Chicken, Fish, Roast Beef, Rice, Pasta and Potatoes and Vegetables. The cold tables served salads. There were drinks (coffee, tea and sodas) and desserts as well.
I chose a handful of French fries, two small baked potatoes, a Samosa, one piece of Roast Beef and two Chicken Wings for a total cost of $9.32. I almost choked when the cashier told me the cost of my meal. Incredible! This meal was way overpriced for what I received and the food was utterly horrible and tasteless, probably the worst meal I have ever eaten in my life. My money would have been better spent on a trio at Mc Donalds, or better yet, a can of Chef Boyardee from the dollar store. The best thing about this meal was the recyclable box it came in. At least they got one thing right!
