I have been to Panera several times.  The broccoli cheese soup and french onion soup are the best,.  \n\nHowever, I have never had a good apple from Panera.  EVER.  They are always tasteless and thick skinned.  I am not sure where they get their apples from but it might not be bad idea to shop around and have someone with taste buds pick the apples.\n\nThe Sierra turkey is a really good Cafe sandwich but the onions on it are a bit hot and strong.  I picked them off. The Chipolte mayo was a little spicy but added great flavor to the sandwich. It comes on Asiago cheese focaccia which I probably would have picked a different bread. I have tried other sandwiches and I have liked most of them.\n\nI tried one of the new pasta dishes the other day and was not overly impressed.  But I am not a pasta person.\n\nI went through the drive through for the first time today and I was really impressed with how quickly I got in and out of it.  It seems you wait longer for you food when you dine in.
