| - Good ole Sweet Tomatoes! AKA Soup Plantation! The restaurant is very similar to Souper Salad but with a facelift. It's a myriad of unlimited salad items, endless soups, unlimited fountain drinks, and an infinity of hot carbs. These restaurants have a monthly theme where they utilize in-season fruits/vegetables to create special dishes aside from their already existing menu items. February's theme was potatoes (ex. cream of potato soup, potato salad, etc.).
The West Flamingo location is the newest Sweet Tomatoes in the area and even boasts outdoor seating that overlooks the great I-215 (also a great view of Home Depot).
SALAD
Fresh pre-made caesars, pre-made cold pasta salads, pre-made broccoli salad, etc. The salad bar also boasts tomatoes, cucumbers, spinach, lettuce, cauliflower, and tons of other veggies! For the chef salad fans, they have feta and cheddar cheeses, hard-boiled egg, croutons, and a boat load of different salad dressings. Grilled chicken is extra $.
SOUP
I've never really been a fan of their soups even though I've tried many of them :-\. Each restaurant has about 3-5 different soups.
HOT BAR
Mac and cheese, Iike theirs because I like Kraft. Perfect for the kiddies. They also have at least one other hot pasta but don't ask me, because I stick to the Kraft. While you're up there the have hot potatoes that you can load up, different bread sticks that are pretty yummy, and muffins! OMG the blueberry muffins are to die for. Put the honey butter on them--euphoria!
DRINKS
Unlimited of course, just like everything else. They offer Coca Cola products and also have different iced teas and juices. Mix and match you crazy barista!
DESSERT
I always stuff myself on the blueberry muffins, so I never visit the ice cream. Yes, I said ISCREAM! Dreyer's chocolate and vanilla, soft serve, if you will. The sprinkles and chocolate sauce aren't just for the kiddies either, go ahead, I won't tell. Don't forget the hot cobbler!
Overall, I love Sweet Tomatoes. They are casual, consistent, fresh, good, and cheap. Meal+Drink= under $15
