Dinner, dessert, and overall

I'm still a little peeved about the service putting everything in one container for sides but I'll deal.

Lets just jump right into taste.

Thai Curried Noodles with Broccoli and Tofu (bland and overdone noodles. Also, why use silk tofu and not firm?)
with Creamy Parmesan, Parsnip and Potato Mash (good)
and Exotic Mushroom Ragout (there were very few but it was good) -- why is this lacking? Are mushrooms that many calories?
Is it filling? Actually, yeah. But it looks like a TV dinner and I am not sure what the nutritional value is of the food I've received.

I'm kind of scared to try the Mango Panna Cotta. It had a layer of oil at the top... Or is that syrup? Three pieces of real mango and a creamy panna cotta is okay. I'm not a huge fan to begin with but it doesn't taste bad, it's actually a nice flavor but I'm not a fan of creamy stuff. This might be great for others though.  I think it would be fine without the mango bits.


Overall review of all three meals: it's a step up from TV dinners and a step down from takeout.  Takeout would not be as healthy as this, and supposedly nothing is frozen but taste can be improved. I will wait for the rest of the dishes this week to arrive to see if I should continue or cancel the subscription but I feel like the quality and quantity of the food has the potential to be much better than this for the price I'm paying.  One thing is for sure: they have excellent customer service.  Every time I called (three times), there was no wait time.
