fancy sandwiches, salads, soups

it seems like this chain is popping up all over the place, and the ones i’ve been to are usually busy & packed – and for good reason.

panera is a great casual lunch place that is fairly healthy as it offers a nice selection of fancy, yet tasty sandwiches, salads, and soups. so whatever mood you’re in, you have the option for all three, two (i.e. half sandwich & soup), or just one.

i feel that if you’ve been to one panera, you’ve been to them all (which i guess goes for any chain for that matter). this panera offers free wi-fi, and is fairly large so i studied here every now and then….but it can get really loud during lunch rush hour.

they have a yummy appearing dessert selection, but i often felt duped as some of the desserts looked a lot better than they tasted.

but all in all, you can’t go wrong eating here! most everything is delicious.

Dishes I tried:

i ordered this salad ALL THE TIME. i love the sweet, light, citrus flavor of the dressing, and the wonton crispies, mandarin oranges, and tender, healthy tasting chicken made this one of my favorites!

Portobello & Mozzarella

i’ve had this one a few times, and it’s great when it’s prepared fresh. but the last few times it was super oily to the point where the bread was soggy & yucky b/c it was pre-made…i’m hesitant when ordering this dish now.

Pumpkin Muffy

i can’t remember what it’s called specifically, but it’s chocolate cake slices w/raspberry jelly on top. this dessert was super-uber-sweet (chocolate heaviness), which is why i didn’t enjoy it too much. i couldn’t handle all the chocolate!
