Calo, located in Seef Mall, is a healthy eatery offering meal subscription plans for those looking to gain or lose weight. Their mission is to make healthy eating easy. They also have an app to streamline the process. Let’s dive into our review of their offerings.
Location and Concept
Calo’s location in Seef Mall is ideal for a cafe/healthy eatery. They operate on a grab, coffee, and go concept, displaying ready-to-go meals. Customers can pick their meals, order coffee, pay, and enjoy in the seating area or at home. We had the opportunity to try some of their new summer items.
Drinks
- Coconut Matcha: Coconut with matcha might be even better than milk. This drink was refreshing and sweet with the right amount of matcha, and we loved it.
- Yuzu Lemonade: This was good too, but it’s essentially a basic lemonade with a minty essence.
- Iced Shaken Sesame Latte: This drink was divisive. One colleague loved the sesame flavor with coffee, while another felt the flavors didn’t mix well. It’s an acquired taste.
Bone Broth
We tried three flavors of bone broth: classic, spring onions, and lemon, and gochujang. Most of us had never had bone broth before and were pleasantly surprised by how good it tasted. The gochujang broth had a spicy kick and felt like a warm hug. It’s definitely something we’d get more of.
Food Dishes
- Cheesy Breakfast Sandwich: This was a top favorite for us. The sundried tomatoes added great flavor, making the sandwich taste very well with tons of cheese.
- Grilled Salmon with Mashed Potatoes: The grilled salmon paired nicely with the creamy mashed potatoes.
- Pesto Chicken Salad: The pesto flavor with the chicken was excellent and matched perfectly.
- Mini Citrus Chicken Salad: This tasted like a basic salad but with a lemony twist.
- Mini Yuzu Summer Salad: This salad had a refreshing summer vibe.
- Chocolate Strawberry Parfait: This was delicious with crunchy granola.
- Chai Jam Parfait: This parfait was perfectly sweet and satisfying.
