Tuesday Lunch Dates- Essence Bakery Edition

Rhonda and I have started a Tuesday lunch dates tradition (at least for the semester), and since neither of our boys have particularly adventurous pallets we decided to try a new and exciting restaurant each week.
First Stop:

This is a cute little Bakery & Cafe in Tempe, right off Hardy and University. They use organic and local foods, and are famous for their delicious French Macaroons. - We split a Carmel one and it was like eating a little piece of Heaven.

For lunch we both had an Organic mixed greens salad with pecans and red wine poached pears, and a grilled blue cheese sandwich. If you are a blue cheese fan I would highly recommend this.

Overall, super cute restaurant that makes me feel all kinds of girlie inside.

Next stop: Middle Eastern!

P.S. if any of you are available to join us for the lunch dates please do :)
