If eating healthy is not high on your list of resolutions this year, because you have neither the time nor the energy, pay someone to do it for you instead. Soul's Care tiffin service is the latest offering from the low-cal dabba stable that might have you stick with those healthy eating plans

If eating healthy is not high on your list of resolutions this year, because you have neither the time nor the energy, pay someone to do it for you instead. Soul's Care tiffin service is the latest offering from the low-cal dabba stable that might have you stick with those healthy eating plans
Each time we get swamped at Andheri or Dadar station by mustachioed, Gandhi topi-wearing men, deftly balancing numerous dabbas on their head, we imagine a hassled exec-type finding solace in mamma's dabba-esque food inside his miniscule cubicle.
Adding to the surfeit of options for those who don't have the time or the inclination to cook lunch is Soul Care's tiffin service.
We mouthed a 'Woohoo!' on spying our Soul Care dabba in office. A little sickened by the thought of steel dabbas being cleaned only the following day by the dabbawalla, Soul Care's small plastic dabbas packed inside a cardboard hexagon seemed a more hygienic option. Though, it's not the most environmentally-friendly.
What we liked: The aroma from our lukewarm meal was inviting. The meal comprises a dal, subzi, rice, roti, salad or raita, and a drink.
Though we are not big fans of brinjal, the baby brinjals stuffed with onions were delicious as was the Gatte ki Sabzi: besan dumplings in a slightly oily, but yummy gravy. The methi parathas were soft and perfect in number: three. It's always nice to have comfort food like moong dal khichdi in the middle of a rushed day, despite it being slightly bland.
The guys at Soul Care can also arrange for yoga sessions at your workplace.
