“I was given a gift receipt for FoodSt as a baby present from my colleagues. It's been so nice to be able to eat delicious food while in my newborn cocoon. My partner and I ordered Davide's Chicken & Chorizo Paella and Gavin's Slow Cooked Beef, Roast Veg & Red Wine Jus. Both were delicious!
I also want to mention the packaging which is fantastic - wool is used to insulate the food which is a lovely touch with so much packaging in today's food delivery.
The delivery fee is to be considered, but could order a few dishes at once as they come frozen, and are recommended to eat within a few days.”
Dear Belinda,Thank you so much for your 5-star review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the food and had a great experience with us. We also love Davide's Chicken & Chorizo Paella and Gavin's Slow Cooked Beef, and completely agree they are delicious!
Thank you for your kind words about our packaging. We are always looking for ways to make our packaging more environmentally friendly, and we are thrilled that you appreciate this touch.
We value your feedback regarding the delivery fee, but you're right the food comes frozen so you can order a few at once and work your way through them as you please :) Just to clarify the food is good in the freezer for 2 months after purchase, and once defrosted needs to be consumed within 48 hours.
Thank you once again for your support and for taking the time to share your positive experience. We look forward to serving you again at FoodSt!
Best regards,
The FoodSt Team
“The dutch croquettes were not dutch croquettes, they were just potato croquettes with some minced beef in.
Dutch croquettes are made with a white sauce kind of base to which all is added and in my life I have eaten a lot,

I bought three packets I was so excited, and so disappointed when I ate the first two I shall throw the other packets away.
I can buy potato and beef croquettes at Ripper Roasts for $2. Real Dutch croquettes are very difficult to find and not at FoodSt. I haven't eaten the cabbage rolls yet but I have no past history of cabbage rolls.”
Hi Lorna, Thank you so much for taking the time to provide feedback on your experience. We truly appreciate your honest review and apologise for the disappointment you had with Cynthia's Croquettes.
These croquettes are made to Cynthia's recipe which has been passed down from her grandmother - we understand that all renditions of recipes can vary and are sad to hear that they didn't meet your expectations as we've had customers who absolutely love them.
“Many dishes are delicious with exceptional cooking and flavours. A couple have been disappointing or just plain ok. For the price point expecting more out of the dish than just a cooked dish that anyone can make at home.”
“What FoodSt has offered me since I have been a regular customer is sheer gift! My husband and I are elderly and to be able to put such wonderful food on our table with little effort for me is wonderful. I have reviewed all the many meals we have eaten”
“I am afraid to say that of all the dishes that I ordered I only really enjoyed one, and that was Vicky's Indonesian Beef Rendang. I was very dissapointed with Manjari's Palak Daal and thought that Ben's Spaghetti and Meatballs reminded me of Heinz spagetti in tomato sauce with stuffing from a Coles take away chicken. I have still to try Vicky's Wonton Dumplings with broth”
“My review is about the condition in which my FoodSt order was received today. My order was over $1,000 & arrived in 2 large boxes. One box obviously had had something heavy on top & was a little squashed. Inside the 2 boxes at least 12 of my meals had lids which were not attached to the base. One lid was cracked and another was unattached and broken completely. Hopefully these meals are still fit for consumption.”
Hi Elga,

“First time ordering and loved every meal so far. First place I’ve ever found delicious vegetarian meals! Finally no crappy lentil lasagnas and boring pasta dishes!
Looking forward to trying the rest of the veg menu - so much to choose from!”
“I live alone, so cooking can be a burden at times, so I order up single service soups and meals and keep them in the freezer for when I feel like something really tasty and wholesome, which St.Food is.
Very simple to heat up and I have never had anything I would not order again, and often do.
Linda”
