What is WOLF?

Delivering tasty, nutritious meals made with whole foods is our service promise to you.

WOLF Owner/Operator,
John Watson

John’s passion for making healthy meals easily accessible is pushing WOLF to new heights.

Meet John Watson, a local cook who has been creating meals and menus in Victoria restaurant kitchens for more than 20 years.

In July 2016 John started WOLF with a focus on gluten-free whole food meals in an effort to raise the nutritional value of the food he was serving. By November that same year he had rented commercial kitchen space so that he could keep up with rising demand. Since then, WOLF has continued to grow as a way of life for clients who are looking for a healthy response to the convenience of fast-food and takeout – food that’s easy to reach for but is ultimately lacking in nutritional value.

John closes his kitchen four times a year to give his staff a “quality of life break,” and uses this time to create fresh new seasonal menus that are released at the start of each new quarter.

What sets WOLF apart?

The WOLF menu is a collection of traditional meals prepared using only healthy ingredients. It’s a choice John made years ago to promote clean, healthy eating and his clients couldn’t be happier.

WOLF’s online menu items include a complete list of all ingredients, making it easy for clients to avoid allergens or simply things they don’t like.

John and his team use gluten-free rice flour, coconut flour, gluten-free oats, millet, quinoa and other grains instead of traditional flour. These substitutions, coupled with fresh vegetables and quality cuts of meat, raise the bar on nutrition and make it easy for clients to come back, week after week.

Seniors Meals

WOLF now offers seniors meals, made with the same ingredients and packaged smaller to meet our senior clients’ nutritional needs and budgets.

Restricted mobility, the rising cost of food, and reduced appetite from sensitive digestive systems are concerns that John has been hearing throughout the community from the elderly, and their friends and family. That’s why he’s pivoting to implement WOLF’s established business model to make nutritious meals easily accessible for seniors. WOLF’s ordering system – online and over the phone – makes it easy for seniors to order for themselves, or have a friend or family member set up a recurring weekly order that’s delivered right to their door every Sunday.

John’s dream is to provide this service to all of Vancouver Island. Currently this service is available in the Greater Victoria area, and WOLF is looking to expand to Duncan, Lady Smith and Nanaimo. Join the mid-island mailing list to learn more about WOLF’s expansion plans.
