There is a need for fresh ingredient conscious frozen food in my busy life. I have relied heavily on Trader Joe's, Amy's, Healthy Choice and Tyson frozen options to get me through certain periods in my life. The offerings at Feast are much more delicate and a bit luxurious. I have tried most of the hors d oeuvres and a couple desserts. The dauphine potatoes, fig and goat cheese crackers, and quiches are my favorites. The fried artichoke with cheese was my least favorite. I also found that I needed to spray cooking oil on the potatoes, spanakopita, and fried artichoke to achieve the golden crisp.
The service is polite but cool as expected from a French inspired company that specializes in frozen cuisine. They offer afternoon tastings for the skeptical or hungry.
Ah Babeth's Feast. A fun play on the inspiring food film Babette's Feast, am I right?
There's a market for this type of store. I'm just not sure if it's for the vast majority of people.
I mean, it's great having my freezer stocked with gourmet food such as braised lamb shanks, chocolate souffle, and beef bourguignon. Like, can you say FANCY?
But as much as I enjoy this luxury, it's definitely not sustainable. Because you know, money.
I went with a coupon that gave me $25 off $50. The place is looks like the giant freezer section of a regular store, very white and clean. Foods are grouped in meal categories, such as appetizers, entrees, desserts, etc. They even have a kitchen in th back that gives out samples. The staff is quite friendly. For spending $50, I got a free freezer tote to carry my foods home! That was a nice touch.
Everything is quite expensive and your money won't go very far here. I suppose it's an alternative to eating out at a restaurant. I've only had the beef bourguignon so far, but it was pretty good. That portion, which I ate over noodles, lasted me two meals and then some.
I wouldn't go here without a coupon. This is probably for people with lots of money and little time.
