There are plenty of healthy food delivery services in Manila where people may order food online but I have seen nothing quite like Green Dot Vegetarian Catering and Healthy Food Delivery Service. Green Dot specializes in vegetarian cuisine, not just on food with low calorie count. Their specialty is Indian food but they also offer other varieties such as Thai, Chinese, Japanese, and Italian Cuisine.
Green Dot started primarily as the only vegetarian catering service in the Philippines and then later on ventured into home food delivery service. Their mission is to provide vegetarian dishes that are both healthy and delicious.

With busy schedule and strong will to still eat freshly prepared healthy food, it is understandable that people resort to this kind of delivery services these days. I, myself, although am not confined in a full time 8-to-5 job still find it hard sometimes to prepare a meal or eat out especially when pressed for time due to some tasks at hand. Indeed, home food delivery is the way to go.
Green Dot's website is fairly easy to navigate. There is a separate menu for their catering and food delivery service. Majority of the food indicated on their website is Indian food, but then again, they also offer other cuisine. Do not be afraid to contact them and ask if they can prepare certain vegetarian dish for you which is not on the menu.
When I was asked to sample the food offerings a Green Dot, I immediately
said yes mainly because of two things. First, when I am staying at our
home in Manila to work on a project, food delivery service works for me.
Second, they offer Indian food which is the first cuisine I learned to
love right after I outgrew my aversion to spicy food.
Since it is their specialty, I went ahead and order some of the Indian food I liked to feast on. I love the fact that the packaging is very neat as everything is neatly tucked in a transparent microwaveable container. Everything is neatly labeled indicating the name of the food and a brief description of it.
First thing on my list is their Butter Naan which is my default choice when eating Indian cuisine. It is still hot when it arrive so the buttery smell and the softness of the bread were notably enticing. I also ordered for Pita and Hummus which were both equally enjoyable.
There are several choices of Basmati rice on Green Dot's menu but I went for their Palak Paneer Biryani ( Spinach and Cottage Cheese Basmati Rice), and I am glad I did. Given the generous amount of toppings, this one can be a meal in itself. It has a balance of spice and savory flavor that even my sister who is not a big fan of Indian dishes took a great liking for it.
The Vegetable Chicken Curry was also exceptional. I have tried several vegetarian curry dishes before with mock meat but this one by far was the best one I've ever had. The Indian spices was noticeably there but not to the point of overwhelming.
The Butter Paneer was one of my favorites. The chunks of cottage cheese were generous while the buttery sauce made up of tomatoes, onion paste, and Indian spices made it all the more palatable. I tried eating it with plain rice since our rice already had Paneer on it and it was just amazing especially when doused with the creamy sauce.
The Vegetable Samosas were also great especially when dipped with its accompanying sauce. But it was the Cheesy Corn Mushroom Puff Pastry that earned my rave. I love its flaky texture and savory filling more than anything else. It comes with a sweet chili sauce but it can do well without it.
Green Dot offers an extensive line of desserts to choose from. The choices are aplenty it could might as well be considered as one of their specialties. But staying true to my Indian Food Feast theme, I ordered their Gulab Jamun, a famous Indian dessert and I got no regret with this option.
I have always been fascinated with the richness and the beauty of Indian cuisine. I am lucky that although I have deep affinity for meat, I was raised to love vegetarian food as well, all thanks to my father. I am glad to be introduced to Green Dot Catering and Healthy Food Home Delivery Service because truth be told, their take on Indian food is just impeccably amazing.
I am also happy that they ventured into home food delivery service despite being already successful in catering business. Through this expansion, a lot of people who are into vegetarian cuisine will get to enjoy varieties other than the usual vegetarian restaurants we have in Manila.
So if like me, healthy home food delivery service is something that works well for you due to your busy schedule, I suggest that you try Green Dot. I am not a vegetarian but I appreciate no-meat food varieties and I must say that Green Dot's offerings are by far one of the bet I have tried.
