Afternoon Delight

I had the pleasure of dining in the White Wave office cafeteria for lunch today, and I must say it was a pleasure indeed!

When you think of a "cafeteria" you might envision gloopy trays of mystery meat, hairnets and cartons of lukewarm milk. While there was plenty of Horizon Organic milk (and it's dairy free counterpart, Silk) available at this cafe, the food was knock-your-socks-off good. Or, at least pretty darn good for $5 served up in a cafeteria in a business park.

The cafeteria boasted 4 hot plate options which today included: Seafood Bouillabaisse, Roasted Vegetable Tart with fingerling potatoes and green beans (my option), Pizza and Asian Chicken Stir Fry with Soba Noodles. For the less adventurous there is also a make-your-own sandwich bar, smoothie bar, latte bar and an organic salad bar. They're just missing the happy hour cocktail bar! Most everything on the menu is organic or at least all-natural. The cookies and bars looked freshly made.

And the tray dump included bins for composting, mixed recycling and trash. Now that's what I call an office perk!
