We…read morevisited on our first day in town and found our spot, as Fresh Fit Meals checks all the boxes we sought. It starts with the store manager, Jenny, who is a terrific human but also provides great customer service due to her awareness, enthusiasm, and customer service. Her store is roomy, clean, and comfortable. Plenty of parking is adjacent. Multiple tables are inside, and a microwave is available if you're eating in. Many prefer their Grab n Go option. They also have a nutritionist (Becca) on staff to aid your habits and health. The large menu includes identified new items, and they offer local delivery (which we will do once moved). All items are nicely displayed in their wall-length fridge, and there were no sales-type moves by Jenny throughout. I selected the Blackened Cajun Salmon, which was tremendous, aided by delicious greens and mashed potatoes. No doubt, down the line, they will have loyal customers we live here.

Located on Des Moines' fun Ingersoll Avenue, Palmer's private parking begins your visit with an easy landing. Clean, well laid-out, and spacious, this place manages to retain its cozy feel without a hitch. Had great interaction when paying, and Joe was terrific as i tried to decide my choices. The Corn Chowder was superb, just the right thing on a damp, cold day. Tasty, thick, yummy. My partner had their fresh Frogeye option and loved it. I look forward to my next visit, because their sandwich options are limitless!

As people shuffled in and out from all cultural backgrounds you are able to spot those a part of who's who in the community immediately-- I briefly chopped it up with our former Mayor Cownie as he was exiting with prime desserts.

I've ordered from here a few times now and I'm always impressed at how good their sandwiches are. I typically order whatever sandwich I'm feeling at the moment and a side, usually cottage cheese, although their potato salad is very good as well. May be a little pricier than fast food if you're just looking to get lunch, but it's definitely higher quality food than fast food, too. One complaint I would have for D.R. Deli is that for whatever reason, this place always seems to be closed. But when I happen to be at the mall when it's actually open, it's not a bad place to get a quick meal.

I usually get the turkey club - the quality of their turkey is great and they LOAD the sandwich high with meat and toppings. My mom's favorite is their ham salad - she is obsessed! I also love their variety of classic deli sides. I've had their potato salad, but this time got the broccoli salad: so good. Service was quite slow this time, but it seemed to be a new staff member learning the ropes. We took ours to go but it's a nice experience inside. Overall, good prices, great quality and generous portions for what you get!

They're so hard to obtain in the south but I saw the box lunch and thought why not. I got got the #14 Turnberry on sourdough. It's a huge mountain of Smoked Turkey, Havarti, cranberry chutney & cream cheese. Sounds as if it doesn't blend but oh it does. The Sourdough was THICK; Texas toast slices. They loaded a hefty amount of chutney and creame cheese on to it, too. Thus, a whopping sandwich! I was able to grab a garlic pasta on the side with one of their equally massive cookies. I totally forgot that they go BIG! Big flavor, big bites, big impact, delicious bites I go to Paris often and the open-air resturant feels like a parisan establishment. I do wish they had outside seats.

Still worth a try!

There is tons of parking available in the strip mall's parking lot that is in a reasonable walking distance. As I mentioned, these are gourmet cinnamon rolls, and gourmet does not come cheap. The shop is very clean. They have a decent size dining area with tables and chairs. There is also a lounge area with purple couches. You will find a fenced in patio area available to eat you treat at as well. The guy working the shop was friendly enough, but my interaction with him was limited. They have a bunch of signature and rotating/seasonal cinnamon rolls such as Strawberry Fields Roll, Berry Crumble Roll, Tropical Bliss Roll, Caramel Apple Pie Roll, and Campfire S'mores Roll. You can also get a traditional plain cinnamon roll. They also have soft serve, brownies, cookie dough, king cake and ice cream floats. I got a Snicker Salad. It was made while I waited and only took five minutes. I ordered it at night and ate it the following morning. It was still delicious. I really enjoyed it. It was tasty. I highly recommend checking this place out to satisfy your sweet tooth.
