Tender Greens (UTC): Quick Take

Working momhood has me not able to spend too much writing about food these days, though we certainly have had some good food! So one quick report.

We hit the new Tender Greens in the UTC mall.  I won't go into detail on the food since I've reviewed TG in Liberty Station so many times (do a search in the upper-left if you're new to the blog).

I'll just say:
--nice airy space

--not too crowded yet cuz most people don't know it's open. I bet it will be super-crowded at lunch and maybe not on the weekends, since UTC empties of workers (one can hope!).

--no liquor license yet, so no wine yet

--food was just as good as in Liberty Station, though there were some temperature issues (would have liked hotter food and soup)

--corn soup was yummy

--delectable grilled veggies this season: corn, eggplant, green beans, squash

--CH got a delicious harvest salad with lots of fresh berries and walnuts

I love the adventure of seeing what the specials are going to be at TG. That makes it more exciting than Urban Plates.

THRILLED TO HAVE THEM closer to home.  I only hope they won't get too packed and it won't cease being a good option to go to with Super Boy!
