Restaurants & Food / Best salads in JH

« on: September 21, 2021, 02:47:58 PM »

Lately, I've been really into big salads from the likes of by Chloe, Chopt, etc.. What are recommendations for really good salads in JH? I have enjoyed the kale ones at Laly's, but can't think of any other standouts at the moment.

I walked by the restaurant this afternoon and there were signs in the windows that read, "SEE U SOON."

If it was that cute graffiti-tag kind of sign with a splash of pink, someone has been posting those signs all over closed businesses.

Anyone have updates on whether the line for Downtown Natural have been better? Saw on this thread and the JH facebook that they were pretty long. TIA.

I went to Food Town this morning during the designated senior hours. The line to pay snaked around the store all the way to the frozen food aisle: I'd guess it would have taken 45 minutes to get to the cashier. I walked out in frustration and found that Lemon Farm has just reopened. I got almost everything I needed there, with a quick stop also at Mango Rico. Both shops had masked and friendly cashiers. Made my morning....

I was wondering if the wait at Foodtown had gotten any better. Last time I went to Foodtown was the beginning of April at 8:30am. After waiting over an hour to get in, I made sure to get enough food to last me for a couple of weeks because I did not want to wait on that line again!

Glad to hear that Lemon Farm is open again! Need to restock on certain items soon.

The joy on my face when I went to Lemon Farm - they're doing a respectable amount of social distancing by limiting number of people entering, and directing traffic for the cashier. I got everything I need there and may go back tomorrow to get more treats.

Do you mean 80th and 37th? Next to Kim's Brother (which seems to have opened up today btw, very limited stock).

this one is on the north side of the street. they still have the no-longer-valid CBD signs in the window

Got it thanks! Also, shout out to Mango Rico where I bought a ton of affordable produce a little earlier. Really well-versed and courteous with the social distancing. The woman directing traffic at the front did a nice job, even prioritizing seniors who were walking by and interested in doing some shopping.
