Veggie Lovers: More Salads Coming to Albuquerque
October 30th, 2009
In a development that I can only describe as surprising yet good, Albuquerque will soon be home to a new restaurant whose concept is. . . salads.
Salad Bowl, a small franchise with only 5 locations so far across Texas and Colorado, has set their sights on many locations right here in New Mexico, with the first to be on San Mateo & Academy (is this the old Sweet Tomatoes location? Nope, looks like a former massage therapist.)
Whoa. In this economy, with food prices at record highs and dining options getting tighter? I hope they do well, but in the “more is more” eating mantra I fear that many diners will check them out a few times, then retreat to Sweet Tomatoes or Souper Salad for volume.
Best of luck to Salad Bowl – I’ll be there checking out the variety!
