| - I went again today and got the Grilled Chicken Salad Sandwich (Grilled Chicken Breast, Seedless Grapes, Spanish Almonds, Sundried Cherries, Tarragon Aioli, Artisan Lettuce, Tomato on Multi Grain Bread) $7.25, and a cup of Mushroom Farro soup $3.
The sandwich was tasty and everything wash fresh. I really liked it. It was a little light on the lettuce and the almonds were chopped a little too fine, and there were too few present to offer any texture to the food. I wish there were more almonds to bump up the flavor a bit because the aioli was incredibly dominant. I could taste the cherries and the grapes, but more almonds would have better balanced things.
The flavor of the soup was great. It was a basic fall-weather soup (vegetable stock base with mushrooms and farro). It had a good homemade/comfort feel. However, the soup was a little oily for my liking. I'll probably give the soups another try, but I can't give the soup a thumbs up yet. If this was a soup-only joint, I would give the place a much lower rating based on this one.
Overall, I'm still digging the place and now that I'm not eating out for lunch all that much, I might end up stopping here every couple of weeks. It's well worth a try, especially to get away from the usual Hudson/Stow lunch fare.
