No Better Place than Panera By: Lizzy Nelson

I got out of my car and I started to walk through the doors, I could smell the delicious food already. My mouth started to water and I could taste the food in my mouth. I heard very quietly over the loud customers “Welcome to Panera”. It was very crowded and the line was long but I decided to wait in the line because I wanted a decent meal. The line was going by pretty fast because there were a lot of employees working. I was looking around, and right away the pastries caught my eye. They were all organized nicely behind the glass. Looking at the pastries made me extremely hungry.

Panera bread is known for their wonderful pastries. It was founded in 1981 by Louis Kane and Ron Shaich. The company used to be called Au Pain Company but the name was changed in 1999 to Panera Bread. Panera Bread is one of the most popular and fastest growing chains in America today; also it’s the number one fast food place.
The cashier says, “I can help the next person, please”. I walk up to the counter, unsure of what I want still because there are so many options to chose from. The cashier was being friendly, she was asking me how my day was going and asked me if I had any questions about the menu. I knew that the caesar salad there was good because I get that every time, but I was in the mood for a sandwich. So I asked the cashier if the grilled cheese was any good. She had a smile on her face and said, “The grilled cheese is excellent”. She was patient with me and she didn’t make me rush. I decided to get half chicken caesar salad and half of a grilled cheese with an apple and a cookie. I sat down and waited for my food. I was looking around at everyone and I felt happy. The colors made me feel like I was at home. I was looking at the pictures that were on the wall. Most of the pictures were paintings of random kinds of breads. The food came out pretty fast and I couldn’t wait to eat. My grilled cheese looked wonderful. The cheese was squirting out of the bread. I took a bite of the grilled cheese and it just melted into my mouth. The chicken caesar salad had the perfect amount of dressing and chicken.

Panera is a great place to catch a quick bite to eat. It is fast and it is good for you compared to other restaurants. According to Health Magazine, in the article America’s top 10 Healthiest Fast Food Restaurants, Tracey Minkin and Brittani Renaud state, “This bakery-cafe-based eatery wowed our judges with a comprehensive menu of healthy choices for every meal.You can pick from two whole-grain breads for your sandwich and have an apple with it instead of chips”. Panera was in a magazine for being a healthy fast food restaurant. Panera is good for you because the food is fresh. They have so many different options. They have sandwiches, soups, pastas, and salads. They also have a lot of different pastries as well.

Some people may say the quality of Panera’s food is bad and the place is loud. People would think it's bad because it's labeled as a fast food restaurant, but in reality Panera has quality food. The food at Panera is real. They have organic things there like milk and yogurt. During lunch time Panera gets a lot of customers. It’s not even loud, there are just a lot of people that go to Panera during lunch. Most people are working when they go to Panera. For the most part Panera is usually quiet.

A worker came over and cleaned everything up for me. When I was walking out of the door the workers said, “Bye, thanks for coming have a good day”. The workers are so nice and they make the restaurant so much better. I was content walking out because I was starving walking in but I could barely walk out because I was so full. I got into my car and I was thinking about the next time I was going to eat there again. I wanted to just stay in there because it made me so happy.
