Panera Bread

I should stop apologizing for reviewing chains! Some people have never had the opportunity to check out Panera Bread.

 

One of my favorite foods items is bread and bagels happen to be a terrific member of this family. Not only does Panera have bagels but other pastries as well as breads.

 

When I order bagels I usually get a dozen which includes 2 containers of cream cheese. The honey walnut cream cheese is my favorite with sweet bagels and is their best seller. The vegetable cream cheese is also really good with the savory type of bagels. I have tried all the cheeses and they are all yummy.

 

 

 

They have an in store cafe where they offer sandwiches, soups and salads. They also have a convenient drive through!

My favorite soup is the broccoli cheddar and they usually run out! I wish they would plan better how to accommodate all the people who want to eat this soup in a day. All the other soups are all good, especially the potato which has a nice bacon flavor.

I usually order a half and half which consists of your choice of a half of a cafe sandwich, a half of a cup of your choice of soup and includes a baguette. When you are in a hurry and fast food seems the only solution this is a much healthier option.

Black Walnut Cafe

Woodlands, Texas location

The Woodlands, TX 77381

 

This is one of the best places I have been to in the Houston metro area. Everything has tasted wonderful. So far I have tried and loved the fried ravioli, chipotle chicken pepper pasta, black walnut lemon chicken, lasagna and a burger. The tomato sauce is apparently from scratch and was incredible. The atmosphere is also nice. Upscale casual is what I would call this place. The focus is on fresh and unusual ingredients. I am looking forward to going back again and again!

When you enter there are menus waiting to be picked up. You can sit in the entrance to decide what you want or walk to the back where you place your order. There are usually dishes made up for you to see what they look like before you order. You seat yourself and get your own drinks. When your order is ready you go back to the back to pick it up. In the middle of the Black Walnut is the bar and dessert area. There is an assortment of pastries and gelato for you to pick from if you have any room after your meal.
