FAQ

Energy Lab Eats sounds like a strange name for a prepared foods business, is your food clinical or diet focused?  

Great question, no the Energy Lab is a physical place on the Ironman World Championship Course in Kona, Hawaii.  The name is meant to evoke a sense that in life we can all use a lift of energy and focus.  Our delicious food provides the fuel your body needs to do great things and focus on what is most important to you.  

We are classically trained chefs who take pride in making outstanding food from scratch.  We are also triathletes so what we eat is important for success on the race course.  

Your brand mentions athletes a lot, what if I am not an athlete or don't play any sports, can I still eat your food? 

Yes!  We are creating a new prepared foods brand for everyone! Busy moms, dads, students on the go, anyone who is looking to eat delicious food that is prepared from scratch and is good for you.   

Can food really taste good and still be good for you? 

Yes! By using a variety of ingredients such as grains like quinoa, amaranth, barely, farro, sorghum, to name a few.  Loads of fresh vegetables and lean animal and plant based proteins we can create food that covers all of your dietary bases. 

By mixing in advanced cooking techniques like braising, roasting, grilling, sautéing, pickling, fermenting, marinating and infusing ingredients we are able to extract maximum flavor while still allowing the ingredient's natural health properties to shine.  

To put it simply food can be delicious and healthy.  Try it! 

Do you have a brick and mortar storefront? 

Currently we do not.  We are trying an experiment with offering online purchases only.  You select your items from our website by Thursday at 5pm.  Then we will deliver them to your doorstep the following Tuesday. 

This allows us to focus on making the food exactly as it has been ordered, minimizing waste and over production.  We can also produce food hours before delivery so it arrives to you in the freshest, most delicious state possible.  

How often does your menu change?  

We will be changing the menu in two week blocks.  This allow customers to have some familiarity from week 1 to week 2.  It will also allow customers to enjoy a wide variety of our offerings because they have two weeks to go through our menu.   

Will I be able to see nutritional information and allergy information?  

Yes we are working on uploading all of our recipes and this information will be available shortly.
