Rosemary’s
Kitchen is not your typical eatery. Along with a menu that changes weekly, they have a grocery area in the front of the restaurant that carries organic and local items, as well as an organic juice bar. While Rosemary's typically offers a mix of hearty and lighter dishes, the kitchen focuses on fresh and healthy meals. Some
recurring favorites are the stuffed bell peppers, various grilled paninis, and their homemade soups.
Rosemary’s Kitchen prides itself on the use of
fresh ingredients, and you can tell just by looking at the food how incredibly
fresh all of the ingredients are. Not to mention they use local milk, meat and other products
when possible. Find this week’s simply fresh menu here.
As we mentioned before, Rosemary’s
Kitchen has a great little grocery located inside the restaurant that has tons
of local goodies as well as a cooler stocked with homemade items, to-go meals
and more. They also carry various
organic brands and items in their grocery. So if you're looking for a fresh and delicious lunch, a healthy meal to-go or a light snack, visit Rosemary's Kitchen on Bonner Street!
