Amerikanske Sandwich – bliver mere og mere fancy – og koster mange penge…

“All the flavor must be concentrated into one bite one bite of something very satisfying.” Very.
If “genius” sounds overstated for the work of a sandwich savant, it’s because you haven’t tucked into Silverton’s rustic sourdough slices, topped with braised artichokes, soft ricotta, pine nuts and currants. Or sweet Gorgonzola, roasted radicchio, spiced walnuts and honey.

“Everyone in the world grew up eating noodles of some kind,” says the 39-year old Kennedy who lived in Glen Ellyn from his birth in 1963 to 1975. “Why not bring these culinary experiences altogether onto one menu. When the idea hit me, I was utterly obsessed with it.”
His brainstorm nearly a decade ago resulted in one of the fastest growing restaurant chains in the nation. Based in Boulder, Colo., Noodles & Company has 66 restaurants with 24 being added this year and another 30 next year.

Healthy salads fuel cash registers at fast-food chains
After years of searching for the Next Big Thing and struggling through a two-year slump, the fast-food industry is hitting pay dirt with salads.
Salad sales at the nation’s fast-food restaurants are up 12 percent in 2003 over the same period last year, according to the NPD Group, a New York market research firm that tracks the food and beverage industry. Overall salad consumption increased 2 percent.
And salads at fast-food restaurants are becoming meals, not mere side orders, NPD said. Nor are they cheap. While combo meals — a sandwich, fries and soft drink — start on average around $3.99, the salads begin at $4.29 without a beverage.
