Recipe of the Month - Green Goddess Dressing

It’s time again for our Recipe of the Month! This month, David is sharing the recipe to his delicious Green Goddess Dressing. Packed with fresh herbs, zesty lime juice, spicy ginger juice and creamy greek yogurt, Green Goddess is the perfect seasonal dressing for your fall salads. It is rumored that the original recipe came from San Francisco’s Palace Hotel in 1923 where chef Philip Roemer named his recipe to honor hotel guest/actor George Arliss for his role in the hit play, The Green Goddess.

The Best Summertime Lunch Spot

Looking for a quick lunch spot while you’re downtown? D’Andrews is the perfect place for a quick bite. From handcrafted sandwiches on freshly baked bread to fresh leafy salads, we have something to satisfy every appetite, and maybe a few sweet treats to finish the meal!

Chicken & Avocado Sandwich

The key to what makes us unique is that everything that comes out of our kitchen is made from scratch. The difference really comes out in the flavor of the food we serve.  We start each day by baking the bread that we use for all of our sandwiches and pizza. We modify traditional focaccia bread with potatoes for softness and extra virgin olive oil for extra flavor.  Then we move on to pastries to fill our cases. 

Our best selling sandwich is the Chicken & Avocado made with lemon chicken breast, smashed avocados, and roasted tomatoes. This sandwich is perfectly paired with dijonnaise made with our signature homemade mayonnaise. We roast our own chicken and marinate it in lemon and fresh herbs. Lime and a little hot sauce is added to the smashed avocados for an added kick.

For a lighter option, we also have a Build Your Own Salad. Choose between kale, baby arugula or mixed greens and your choice of four vegetables and toppings. Customize your salad with fresh cherry tomatoes, shredded carrots, cucumber, snow peas, watermelon radish, roasted broccoli, portobello mushrooms, candied pecans or roasted chickpeas.

Cheese choices include David’s personal favorite - marinated feta. This comes from a sheep milk feta imported from France. To add even more flavor, we burn lemons and add them to the cheese. 

To top it all off, choose from one of our four homemade dressings. David’s personal favorite is Green Goddess, which is a Greek yogurt based dressing flavored with tarragon, lime juice, ginger juice, and sunflower seeds.

So stop by this week and try these delicious options for yourself! Short on time? We also offer online ordering through our website or UberEats.
