Discovering a Hidden Gem in Tooting: The Olives Meze Shawarma Gym Box

 

After a tough gym session this morning, I found myself wandering around Tooting, searching for something hearty and nutritious. My body was craving fuel, and I knew I needed something substantial after pushing through those grueling weights. It felt like fate when I stumbled upon Olives Meze Shawarma. Tucked away from the bustling streets, it’s one of those hidden treasures you don't realize you’re missing out on until it finds you.

I wasn’t looking for anything in particular, just exploring Tooting’s diverse offerings, but the name Olives Meze Shawarma caught my attention. Curious and hungry, I decided to check it out. And boy, am I glad I did!

Browsing through their menu, my eyes landed on something that felt like it was made just for me—the Mix Protein Gym Box. Featuring tender Free Range Grilled Chicken Strips, crispy Falafel bites, and decadent Halloumi pieces, this box was packed with everything my post-workout body needed. The meal was beautifully balanced with chickpeas, Greek salad, and rice salad, making it both nutritious and filling.

 
As I sat down, the friendly staff explained how to order, their enthusiasm making me feel right at home. The seating area was cozy, and the customer service was exceptional. When they brought my meal to the table, I could tell I had made the right choice.

Taking my first bite, I knew I had hit the jackpot. The chicken was tender and flavorful, the halloumi was perfectly grilled, and the falafel had the perfect crisp-to-soft ratio. The trio of salads—rich with flavor—complemented the proteins, creating a complete meal that felt like a burst of Mediterranean goodness.

This meal wasn’t just food; it was an experience. With 78g of protein, 158g of carbs, and 43g of healthy fats, it was the perfect post-gym meal, keeping me fueled and satisfied without the heavy, sluggish feeling. And all of this, while staying under 815 calories, was exactly what I needed after such an intense workout.

If you ever find yourself in Tooting after a workout, or even if you're just craving a flavorful, balanced meal, Olives Meze Shawarma is worth a visit. It’s more than just a meal, it’s a hidden culinary gem.
