The Lean Canteen Is Set To Thrill Your Taste Buds With Its Healthy Meal Service!

When on a mission to eat healthily, the taste, cost, calorie count and preparation time affects the food choices you make. However, now there’s a service to do all the work for you, and all you have to do is sit back and enjoy your tasty guilt-free meals!

Created by food lovers, The Lean Canteen (TLC) is a healthy meal service for calorie-conscious foodies in the Klang Valley. Co-founders Mark Lee and Aina Ghani are both self-declared foodies who love a good meal, and firmly believe that eating healthy can be both affordable and delicious.

Believing that good nutrition is one of the main pillars of a healthy lifestyle along with regular exercise, the team at TLC aspires to start a new movement of the way people view food. Working closely with a nutritionist, TLC ensures that each generous meal averages around only 500 calories.

Each meal is deliciously prepared with tender loving care by a cordon-bleu qualified chef and each flavourful meal is whipped up at a centralized kitchen. The meals are then vacuum packed for freshness before they are delivered to pick-up points in Petaling Jaya.

Menu items include rice dishes like Nasi Goreng Cendawan and Bangkok Beef; jumbo 12-inch wraps like the Taj Mahal (with tandoori chicken breast strips) and Baba’s Beef Burrito; best-seller Salmon Khan, and the latest addition of a pasta dish, the Don Aglio. Besides plans to further expand menu selections, TLC will also have weekly and monthly specials.

Meals are priced from as low as RM13, and are packaged in individual containers labelled with storing and reheating instructions. Be sure to stay tuned for weekly deals announced via TLC’s Facebook page whereby you can order two to three meals at a discounted price!

Your ordered meals can be kept in the fridge and can be enjoyed over a 5-day period. That means you don’t have to pick them up daily as you can go ahead and order your meals for a week.

This is how it works:
