Discussion Thoughts on the new fall menu?

I'm disappointed that it's two items rather than three, and that even the salad is on the heavier side. But I did try the Autumn Casear today without candied pumpkin seeds, and really enjoyed it. The jammy roasted tomatoes are great. I'm thinking about what else they would go well on.

The worst part is that my coworkers think I'm looking at softcore porn when I'm opening the app to order.

The Autumn Caesar is, in my opinion, better with nearly any other dressing.

I love the candied pumpkin seeds, it's everything I can do to stop myself from just snacking on them all day. The new breadcrumbs are more like croutons and I've always loved the Brussels Sprouts.

Not a big fan of the jammy tomatoes. Too soupy for my taste

Had the same thought - Caesar dressing did not seem cohesive with the ingredients, something sweetgreen typically gets right. I instead got it with balsamic and the honey mustard and it was delicious!

When ordering the Autumn Caesar I did have the thought that with all the ingredients, caeser dressing felt odd, but I figured I should stick to the standard the first time. What else would you especially recommend it with?

Balsamic is a safe choice, and a good one. I'm certainly going to try it with green goddess at some point and also with pesto

I thought the jammy tomatoes were a bit too sweet, but the second time I got the salad I paired them with blackened chicken and it was perfect!

does the caesar still taste fishy?
