Today's menu and a hint of what's to come

Since February is Black History Month, Better World Cafe will be getting into the spirit with African and African-American themed dishes!


Today features a soup from our own Chef Leslie. It's her North Carolina family tradition going back 100 years where they grew their own vegetables and put them up for the winter. Then after the holidays, using the leftover turkey from the previous feast, the well-preserved vegetables (green and lima beans) are added to a savory tomato base to make a flavorful reminder-of-summer soup.

Here is the rest of today's menu:


Specials/Entrees:
~ British pasties (turnovers filled with potatoes and other veg)
~ Pork platter topped with a rosemary pan sauce, mashed potatoes and our own homemade applesauce
~ Pasta with mushroom cream sauce

Soups:
~  Leslie's special North Carolina family turkey vegetable

Salads:
~ Better World Salad (v)
~ Roasted bosc pear with feta, candied walnuts and apple cider dressing


Sandwiches:
~ Corned Beef
~ Kitchen Sink Burrito
~ Turkey

Desserts:
~ Layer cake with caramel icing

~ Chocolate chip, pecan, raisin cookies
~ Banana bread
 
Drinks:
~ Hot and iced coffee and tea

As usual, selections can vary by availability so ask about any additions/changes if you're calling to place a take out order at 732-510-1572. Thanks!
