The salad that eats like a meal
We built the Big Salad for the days you want something fresh without giving anything up. It starts with cold, crisp iceberg and gets piled with avocado, spicy black-eyed peas, sprouts, roasted beets, carrots and cucumber.
A hard-boiled egg and a thick slice of our house-made anadama toast turn it from a side into the main event — hearty enough that you will not be hunting for a snack an hour later.
It is the easy answer when half the table wants fried chicken and you want something green — and honestly, it holds its own next to anything on the menu.
“The rare salad worth crossing the bridge for.”
