Anytime I see Sunterra sandwiches ordered for lunch in the office, I leave and go find lunch elsewhere.

It's probably like Spruce Meadows, where they're technically a farm and not subject to OT laws or some BS thing like that.

Cheque-kiting is a term used to describe a scheme in which cheques are knowingly written on an account that has insufficient funds and covered with cheques drawn on another account that also has insufficient funds to delay default on payments owed.

Sunterra was great years ago. Now often they are low on inventory, their prepared foods are terrible and they are way overpriced.

I really enjoyed the lunch options at Sunterra Market when they were in the Trans Canada building.

It was years ago, but I remember a conference that had lasagna and caesar salads catered by Sunterra. That lasagna was sublime.

They make a pretty good beef tourtiere, too.

The West Market location has been remerchandising for the past few weeks, but I've never otherwise ran into an issue with inventory.

Everything about Sunterra is fantastic. I don't often have any of the prepared meals, but the other quality is great and I find it to be one of the few pleasant shopping experiences

We got a Sunterra Christmas dinner (take it home and heat it up) and it was pretty good.

The one from Joey's was better though.

None of it is good though. Plus way overpriced.

I don't know why they ever changed their name, TC Canada was way ahead of their time with that name.
