Freshii

Freshii Logo (Custom)

I was invited to see what Freshii is all about at their 444, 5th Ave. SW location here in Calgary in the downtown core to try some of their fast-casual, fresh food. It was nice to see a fast food outlet serving fresh salads, wraps, bowls, burritos, soups. froyo, juices smoothies and more! What a fabulous selection of fresh healthy meals and beverages!! My mind wandered from one menu item to the next, hardly being able to decide on what to eat!!

 Freshii (7) (Custom)
Fast food has never been so healthy and so personalized. You start with a base of vegetables for your salad, bowl, sandwich etc. They all start off vegan, then you add your proteins, tofu, falafel, chicken, steak or tuna. Every dish can be custom made. There is a plethera of choices for toppings to choose from plus for bowls you can have brown rice, rice noodles or quinoa. All of this not appealing, too complicated? In a hurry and want Freshii to do the work for you, no problem, they have vast menu to choose from too! All made fresh for a healthy grab and go meal.

 

Freshii (2) (Custom) (Custom)
After a long time perusing the menu, I went with the crowd favorite, Pangoa bowl, which is a hearty serving of brown rice, avocado, black beans, aged cheddar, corn, grape tomatoes, cilantro, lime wedge, and hot sauce. This has amazing taste and is a wonderful combination of flavors.

Fresh quality items go into all of Freshii’s dishes. I could have one of these everyday!! The crowd at lunch sure enjoyed them, a very popular destination.

 

Freshii (4) (Custom)
My girlfriend Trisha, who enjoyed lunch with me, had this excellent Mediterranean bowl. Bowls are hot right now, trendy and delicious. Her bowl consisted of half quinoa and half salad greens, kalamata olives, red onions, feta cheese, cucumbers, roasted red peppers, tomatoes, cilantro, almonds, and red pepper sauce.

 

Freshii (5) (Custom)
Her choice of protein was the falafel which marries perfectly with this bowl of goodness. They are full of flavor and I had to sneak a bite of one, wow fantastic!

 

Freshii (6) (Custom)
Trisha opted for a bottled water for her drink of choice which is usually what I have too but I wanted to try one of the juices, as this is something I rarely have. I went for the Carrot Zinger which is a mixture of carrot, apple and ginger, all perfectly balanced and a great option. We also tried the Green Energy Juice with apple, cucumber, kale, lemon, carrot, romaine, and spinach when we first arrived as a sample. It was slightly sweet from the apple but had all the goodness from the greens. I would love a full serving next time!

 

Freshii (9) (Custom)
The staff are friendly and efficient, the enviroment clean and organized. Freshii also provides catering and in a downtown location I can only imagine how busy they are!

    Freshii just opened up in the town next to us and I’ve been meaning to stop in and check them out. I’d love to try one of their bowls although the Spicy Thai burrito sounds really good too.

    I LOVE Freshii and am so grateful to have one right downstairs from me! The Buddha bowl is my favourite and the Pangoa one is on my list to try!

    I would customize my own wrap with quinoa, spinach, chicken, walnuts, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, roasted red peppers, balsamic vinaigrette and sriracha. I’m guessing it would be busting open on its own and turn into a custom bowl!

    I would like to try the Buddha Satay Bowl; it has some great flavor & texture combinations! Then I’d finish off the meal with a nice low fat probiotic frozen yogurt with dried cranberries!
