small portion for an expensive price. I think I spent like 18 dollars for a small thing of salmon, season veggies (mostly carrots that were sweet and it threw me off), and roasted potatoes. salmon was bland, and the only flavor, if you could call it flavor, was lemon and salt. it was healthy though, and the potatoes were really nice.
