Consisting of six new signature dishes and pairing options dubbed “Lunch Duos,” the latest menu offerings can be purchased for dine-in, takeout and delivery, and will be available at cafes nationwide on October 1.
“Over the past year, we have worked closely with our culinary team to expand and optimize our lunch offerings to align with the ever-evolving needs of our guests. With many returning to the office, we saw a unique opportunity to expand our lunch offerings and cater to those seeking a high-value, elevated southern-inspired lunch experience,” said Brandy Blackwell, vice president of marketing for the “NextGen Casual” brand. “As we launch this updated menu systemwide, we look forward to hearing guests’ feedback and continuing to offer a diverse range of options at our cafes.”
Another Broken Egg Cafe’s new lunch offerings are available all day at all cafes beginning October 1 and include:
- Chicken Salad Sandwich: A classic all-white meat chicken salad with lettuce and tomato served on nine-grain bread. This sandwich can also be ordered Waldorf-style with the inclusion of craisins, diced apples and pecans.
- Southern Fried Chicken Salad: Featuring hand-breaded chicken tenders over mixed greens with hardboiled eggs, tomato, bacon bits, picked red onion and honey mustard, this savory salad is set to remedy any afternoon slump. Guests have the option to substitute the fried chicken tenders with grilled chicken, shrimp, chicken salad or smoked salmon.
- Blackened Shrimp Salad: A perfect mid-day salad made of mixed greens, blackened shrimp, tomato and cucumber and topped with scallions, pineapple, pickled red onions, parmesan crisps and honey jalapeno vinaigrette. Guests have the option to substitute the blackened shrimp with smoked salmon, grilled chicken or fried chicken.
