When the delivery arrived, the boxes seals were not stuck properly, the boxes seemed wobbly and not closed properly, the delivery guy was unfriendly and in a rush ... we were hungry after not eating all day so we did not reject it when delivered and thought maybe the messy boxes were the result of them rushing to deliver or prepare it. We are regular customers and after being very sick for the last few hours (which is still an ongoing thing) we have decided not dealing with them anymore. It’s a shame!! See Less”
