Kale.  Who would’ve thought it would be the star of our show?  We’ve raved about asparagus and praised every pea to come through our door, but it’s the kale that has stolen your  hearts.  Raw kale, at that!

Creating the 20-item menu every week is a favorite task among our chefs.  A time to sit down and talk just about food- we find inspiration from farmers market trips or in memories of meals eaten in far-away places.  We debate about the best way to feature the first-of-the-season basil pesto we are so excited to make  (alas we can’t put it on everything…).  And of course we think about you! When our regular customer Chris told us of his undying love for Petrale Sole, we put it on the menu the next time our fishmonger told us he had it (coincidentally it just so happens to be making an appearance on this week’s menu…you’re welcome, Chris!).

This week you made it easy on us, our raw kale salad has been trending in the Square Meals community and we are happy to oblige. This time we’re adding roasted radishes (our current favorite radish preparation, the usually peppery radish takes on an earthy sweetness that’s the perfect match with kale), crispy almonds, and a creamy-Dijon mustard dressing to bring it all together.  Try it underneath our Herb-Lemon Chicken for dinner or pair it with the Green Lentil and Quinoa Salads for a lunch- time salad trio.  Or, by all means,  have a big bowl full on its own.

Anything else you want to see on the menu?  Visit our Facebook page and let us know (shameless request: also make sure you “like” us if you haven’t already).  We’re listening and, as always, we look forward to cooking for you.

And don’t forget:  our Mother’s Day catering menu is available for pick up @ 2127 Polk St. after 4p on Friday May 11 thru Sunday May 13.  We want to make it easy for you to serve your mom a meal made from scratch with love (like an impressive roasted leg of lamb flavored with chervil, lemon garlic and parsley). Check out the full menu here.  Or take Mom out to Square Meals & Batter Bakery’s Mother’s Day brunch!    Moms will receive a complimentary strawberry Bellini and $5 gift card to use on her next visit! Served from 9:30-2:30 Sunday, May 13.
