But as long as we’re talking about salads, I am totally obsessed with the restaurant’s spinach and goat cheese salad. I always add chicken for added protein and heartiness. A bed of spinach is topped with blueberries, chopped apple, red onion, crumbled goat cheese, juicy grilled chicken and the best part, candied pecans. A honey mustard vinaigrette comes in a little cup on the side.
On a recent Thursday, I needed to add a little extra fuel to get through a Lansing School Board meeting, so I added a massive chocolate chip cookie and a coffee to my order. On meeting nights, I try to eat half of the cookie at lunch and save the other half for the evening. Sometimes the cookie doesn’t survive that long. Luckily, Grand Traverse Pie Co. has another location downtown.
