| - I promise I don't hate healthy things. Heck, I once answered the question, "If you could only eat one thing for the rest of the life, what would it be?" with "Broccoli." I admire Daily Kitchen for bringing a little spot of healthiness to the Westside, a spot where you don't have to wonder if they have whole wheat bread. In fact, everything comes on whole wheat!
However, our dishes were simply underwhelming. I was filled with anticipation for their black bean burger, but I was let down. The patty has promise, but it is very thin and overpowered by a whopping, thick whole wheat bun (ironic). The bun isn't toasty and delicious; it is simply big and prevented me from really tasting whatever else was happening in between. The side salad was meager and underdressed. The burger came recommended, and I think with a thicker patty and a different bun, it could live up to its potential. However, when I had it, I felt as if I was eating a bun.
I sampled my husband's turkey meatball sub, and it too suffered from more bread than fillings as well. They have a fresh juice selection, but I didn't sample any on our visit.
I love the menu. I love the concept. I just wish the execution was more delicious.
