Twist an Urban Eatery Review

April and I had lunch today at Twist, a funky eatery downtown on the edge of the Crossroads district just down from the Sprint Center.
Not a bad little place, awesome decor. I would really love to have the orange couches that are at the front of the restaurant. The overall atmosphere of the restaurant is clean and moddish. (for some reason, I really liked the forks and knifes) It was entertaining to view the items around, and the plastic chairs that match the orange couches are awesome. The art on the other hand is a bit disappointing, and a little too Urban Outfitterish for my taste.


Anyways, onto the food April had Chicken Salad Sandwich with French Fries, which she really enjoyed though it could have had more of the mayonnaise mixture. I myself had Salmon Grilled Sandwich and Wasabi Mashers, which both were very good as well! The only complaint we shared was the grill marks on our sandwiches were a little too harsh on the burnt taste side of things.


Great place, and need to go back to sample some more of the food, and to see how their Martinis are. Props for great food, from such a young chief.

The Myth Of Salads: Why Why Fast Food Salads Aren't Necessarily Going To Help You Lose Weight - Consumerist



Ohhh, yes the wonders of marketing. The assumption that a salad is more healthy than a fatty burger. Hmmm I love burgers. I always laugh when I see people scarfing away on a salad at a fast food chain and wondering why the pounds aren't peeling away. Some interesting comparisons. To note that just the burgers where compared and not the fries and pop that usually comes with a meal.
I am always on the look out for a healthier options when eating at fast food. Since I do allot of eating at fast food restraints while on the run, I try to find the best option when I can. I usually end up not doing to well though...
