Welcome to Ottawa Spread......thank you for coming…read more Spread is of the farm to table concept and the owner Jules comes from a catering background in Toronto where she owned Pan Bagna Catering which specialized in France and Italian lunch cuisine. She moved to our glorious city - to get away from the ridiculousness of Toronto (my words) so if you work anywhere downtown you can order from their awesome menu which includes the following sandwiches.....Roast Paprika Chicken with a Creamy Dill, Lemon, and Honey Coleslaw or how about Pastrami, Sauerkraut and Russian Dressing......I opted for this one. Super fresh and great flavors. My sandwich came with the Potato Chips and homemade Three Onion Sour Cream and Pickles Dip.....ok I will confess the Philly Sour Cream Dip you buy at Beckers is one of my secret go to's.....I could kill a whole bag of ruffles and that dip. This dip kicks the crap out of that times 100.....i'm glad I can't buy this at Metro or I would weigh 500lbs by xmas. The onions are perfectly caramelized to add such a sweetness to the dip.....ummmmm - I may need to order some tomorrow. and the pickles.......ok, I hate dill pickles.....always have, but apparently they have changed me.....they make their own, and it's a combination of sweet and sour - very crispy and sweet.....nummy. my dessert was their butter tart......I have a weakness for butter tarts and they certainly stepped up to my tart fetish, and for the record their homemade butter tart is $1.50....pretty sure I've paid double that before. They are set up to supply lunch for your office - they will be doing their deliveries via bike courier, so for the "green" people out there that should make you happy. Get some people together in your office and give these girls a call or tweet them @spreaddelivers enjoy Ottawa,

Delicious! Spread came to our office today for a sandwich day. I tried the ham sandwich, with…read morepotato chips and dip. The bread is from Nat's Bread Company (delicious) and was topped with a fabulous ham (maybe a sweet pancetta?). I savored every bite. I was actually sad when I finished it. :-/ Potato chips were nothing special - but - they came with a great dip. Enjoyed those too. - though honestly I was over-full by the time I finished everything. Things to know: They will cater. They will also do a thing where they drop by with an assortment of sandwiches and people can buy what they want. All in all, loved the product - and the service. Would I recommend: Yes Would I return: Yes - as in, if they came to our office again, I'd be happy happy happy

Healthy Planet just opened up about a month ago. This location is in the Ottawa Trainyards. It's…read morenext to Urban Barn and in the same plaza as Nordstrom Rack. Healthy Planet is a Health Food Store similar to Kardish and Natural Food Pantry. Since they are new, when I went they still had some empty shelf space, but I'm sure with time they will fill it with products. The store is big and bright and they carry a lot of items that I like at slightly lower prices than their main competitors (who I named above). They carry Vegan Rob's chips, which I absolutely love. They also carry Fiasco Gelato, as well as Mapleton's Organic ice cream! I saw lots of frozen breads, but not any fresh bread, and they don't have a bakery section :( They have a beauty section, but very limited brands of cosmetics. They have skincare, bath and body products too. They have a rewards/points system, but like their competitors it's pretty minimal. You get 1 point per dollar spent and get $5 off when you reach 500 points. So spend $500 and get $5 back. Better than nothing, I guess, lol. It's free to join the rewards program. I'm in this area a lot, so I will likely be going here often. Hopefully they have lots of sales and will have a clearance section, lol. Lots of free parking in the plaza.
