Fast-food restaurants may brag about their breakfast biscuits and McMuffins, but these croissants are the real deal. For lunch Southwestern Bread Company features homemade soup, salads and a different hot dish special. One day it might be hot beef sandwiches, another chicken-mushroom casserole. Saturday's special is a tasty brunch casserole. And every Wednesday is quiche day, which Mickie says has proven to be very popular.
Customers can pick from mushroom, olive, ham, sausage, cheese and vegetable varieties.
And if you call the restaurant by 9 a.m., you can reserve the quiche variety you want and it will be ready when you arrive. Since the specials change frequently, Mickie encourages customers to call the restaurant for menu selections or, better yet, add your name to the quickly growing fax list, which will keep you up to date on what's new at Southwestern Bread Company. Three computers available for customers to check e-mail or surf the Internet. This review appeared in The Gazette Saturday, January 2, 1999.
