Well I have never been to Panera before, decided to give it a go because I miss Paradise. It was a little odd when I first walked in and you order on a kiosk, I think I prefer a human, but it does seem to make the process quicker. I ordered the baked potato soup and the southwestern salad with ginger hibiscus tea. The soup was hot and fresh, creamy and tasty I did enjoy it. My salad, was crisp, flavorful I wish I had extra dressing though cause it was a bit dry. My tea I loved it! I would come back just for the tea! It was a tad pricey about over 16 bucks and I was alone.
