Working Chix – this one’s for you (and me of course, haha)! Between work, family & social life, sometimes there are simply not enough hours in a day, and cooking a meal after a hard day’s of work is the last thing we want to do. That’s the case for me anyway, I work 9-whenever, then I hit 1-2 or 4 events at night, then come home starving, wanting to eat, crash on the couch & fall asleep to Netflix.
That’s why I could not contain my excitement when I 1st heard about Aliments -40!!! Located at 137 Laurier O, this little shop carries the solution to my biggest problem: no time or desire to cook (I hate it, truth be told), as well as one of the biggest joys in my life: food! They offer frozen restaurant quality, home cooked style meals that you can pop into your oven and savour the deliciousness! I love indian food, so naturally I went for their best seller: the butter chicken, and for dessert: a pie with nuts. One word: YUM! Honestly, I could not get enough to the point that I went back to the store the following week to buy another butter chicken and nut pie, no joke! The butter chicken was seriously better than most of the indian restaurants I tired – it was super tender (not dry at all) and the portion of the chicken was extremely generous – one package makes a meal for 2 (at a cost of $25)! And the pie ($18) was finger licking good, my hubby and I devoured it in one sitting – and it’s a pretty big pie! They have tons of things to choose from ranging from soups to pasta to specialized dishes – something for every taste! Perfect to have in your freezer for the week & cheaper than eating out – as well as healthier, as there are no preservatives in the meals! I highly recommend and you might be seeing me there when you check it out; this is forever my go to place!
Bon Appétit!
