| - I like Newk's! No, I really like Newk's!! I'm thrilled to know that there is a location uptown and I've been there several times recently for lunch, now that I know it's there!!
So, Newks has some great sandwiches. Indeed. I've had the Newk's "Q", the Roast Beef, and the Pimiento Cheese (with homemade pimiento cheese and really hard to beat!).
But, I'm in a "reducing" mode at the moment (way too many calories consumed in San Francisco!!) so I've been leaning toward salads and soups. They have a different selection of soups every day and I've had several of them! My favorite is still the Fire Roasted Tomato! But just check out the list; you're bound to find one that sings for you!! I tried the Garden Vegetable Soup today, and was very pleased! It tasted great and check out the nutrition chart - only 80 calories per 8 oz serving! Win!! So, with the Half Soup and Half Salad deal (I selected the Caesar Salad), I had a low cal, tasty and very filling meal!!
They have several (Count 'em - 10!!!) menu salads,each with it's own personality and taste combination. And if you just can't find what you want on the list, order your own salad combination!
My wife likes the pizza (and sometimes I'll have a slice too!). Her favorite, and mine too, is the Spicy Chicken. Now the pizza isn't going to help your calorie count if you sit there and eat the whole thing, so share it!!
I think this is probably one of my favorite restaurants in Charlotte! And fortunately for me, there are locations near my house, and downtown where I work! I'll see you there!!!
