Ouch, truth in advertising bit me, huh? My secret’s out.

And just when I thought I was eating healthy at Panera. Thanks a lot, David!

Panera is wonderful…but in the pictures above, that is neither the tom roasted red pepper soup nor the Frontega. Those are the garden vegetable soup and the new chicken bacon dijon panini. Nonetheless, the Frontega is awesome…just don’t look at the fat and caloric content, cuz it’s through the roof!

Rob..I didn’t read every comment above. But, we have Panera Bread in Dallas too. Had you never been there? Actually, I don’t think I’ve been there. But, I’m pretty sure my sister has and loves it.

Ahh Rob I’m jealous, another one of my favorites (Penera) that we don’t have up here. Okay, so talk about prices… I live out in the middle of no where and you would think that prices would be super cheap. But no… they are insane. Grocery stores here raise the prices of even normal items. And gas is anywhere from 50-80 cents more expensive. Insane!

I hit Panera today to get a latte after being reminded of the wonderful atmosphere.

Like gas prices.

$2.23 in my town…went to a larger city over the weekend, saw it about the same until we crossed over one of those invisible city lines and it jacked up to $2.51!!

Well, I guess I’ve been a singleton too long, because I actually found their prices to be pretty reasonable.

In fact, Panera here in Colorado (remember, +5% cost of living increase from Texas) is cheaper for a full meal than ABC in Dallas. Same goes for Peaberry coffee versus Starbucks. Go fig.

The Frontega Chicken is amazing!!! One of my favorite sandwiches from any restaurant anywhere. The food is kind of expensive but if you go for lunch and just get the sandwich or any of the ‘you pick 2′ combos you will get filled up. They briefly had a Portabello Mushroom Bisque that was terrific!!!

Yeah, we don’t make it there very often. It’s not that kid friendly and way too pricey for the whole family. Like James said, we took the family there for breakfast and when we left the kids were complaining that they were still hungry.

I’ll have to try this Frontega Chicken sometime.
