text: I tend to avoid writing reviews for places like Panera Bread I mean I always figured there would not be many who would benefit from a review unless I had some key intel that made it completely unsuitable This afternoon at this location a man approached me while I was awaiting my takeout order and asked what is their specialty here After I stammered something about Bread soups sandwiches and salads it dawned on me perhaps there is a small fragment of the population who COULD benefit from my review Here goesnnIm all about the hidden menu I use quotes because the hidden menu is about as hidden as escort services here in Las Vegas There is literally a spot on the main menu behind the cashiers that has the Chicken Hummus bowl with a blurb from the hidden menu and the website has a link that says Hidden Menu on it I am not sure the word hidden means what panera thinks it means So on the hidden menu tend to be low carb low calorie options They are all delicious So much so that I find myself ordering from them at least twice a week nnMy favorite is the Turkey Mediterranean Salad You get your salad prerequisites of lettuce tomato and onion and then some baby spinach nice olives peppers and the star of the show delicious antibiotic free turkey You also get a side of bread an apple or chips I go with the apple when I am wanting to be healthy The best part of the salad is its only calories Lohan and Richie circaSkeletwin days would approve nnThe Chicken Mediterranean salad is also fantastic though I have no idea what is mediterranean about it It has lettuce spinach chicken eggs and bacon Have not exactly seen anything like that at Stephanos Anyway as far as taste this one is probably my favorite but it comes in at a whopping calories so I save it for special occasions like ThursdaysnnThe steak lettuce wraps off the same menu are really tasty and a crazy low calories It is basically just some lettuce cucumbers tomatoes and steak with some great pesto sauce It is hard to believe how much flavor you get for only calories I do find myself feeling more hungry hours after I eat this one as compared to the others so I do not order it too often nnFor me you cannot really go wrong at Panera from a flavor level I have also done several of their sandwiches and soups and have generally been pleased each time It is not exactly groundbreaking but simply good and consistent food
