Gem 2: Lunch @ Preserve
Friday afternoon, my friend Grace & I journeyed over to Preserve on Broad Street. Preserve has a very Athens vibe, with a mural on the side and a diner feel. Although the restaurant is very small & seating is limited, I enjoyed the intimate setting.
We were tempted by the brunch menu (offered every day), particularly because the couple next to us ordered the chicken & waffles and it looked amazing. However, I ordered from the lunch menu—the Falafel Sandwich. The sandwich had lettuce, tomato, pickled radish, garlic sauce, yogurt tahini, hot sauce, and was served on a torta bun.
I loved this sandwich. The large portion wasn’t heavy, and the falafel was hearty & flavorful.
Things they did well:
+ quick & friendly service.
+ spice.
+ pickled radish.
+ torta bun.
**Next time, I want to try the Chicken & Waffles.**
<<<We left wanting to come back for dinner…that night – Thank you Preserve!>>>
