Lettuce be friends!

I was introduced to a yummy lunch option yesterday: Lettuce!  Not the vegetable, but the restaurant! It's a salad bar from heaven, with like 100,000 options and chef-designed salads for under ten bucks!

$9.86 (including tax) got me: spinach, walnuts, goat cheese, red onions, celery, apples, light poppyseed dressing, smoked bacon, a couple large chunks of whole wheat bread, and probably a couple other ingredients I've forgotten. Addictive!  The salads are huge, about 1.3L of volume. (How's that for making you go "huh?" ?)

Today they forgot to put in the apples. I was unimpressed. But still stuffed.

God, I'm jealous. I don't think we have some place that awesome locally... *pout*

The founder has opened three in 15 months, and apparently everyone who discovers it says "I wish I'd thought of this!"

You can have one of the ones that's not near me. :)

LOL... it's still probably seven or eight hours away, which is quite a-ways to go for lunch... or even dinner, for that matter.

*sigh* I'll have to hunt for a good salad place around here. There must be something.

You know there ISN'T tofu in it, right? ;-)

Is this a chain or is it a standalone restaurant?

I'd love if we had one of those here, especially in the summertime. Hot food in the Arizona summer just doesn't work for me.

And you make it sound so tasty. :-)

Chain but in Toronto only. But the concept is such that you could steal it pretty easily. www.lettuceeatery.com

Somebody loves their Waldorf salad hybrids. :p
