Soup & Salad Lunch Deals at Milwaukee Restaurants
The Metro Milwaukee Today blog recently had an interesting post about unlimited soup & salad lunch deals at area restaurants. The blogger noted a new trend to add these options to the menu at restaurants like TGI Friday’s and Chili’s. Although not mentioned in the Metro Milwaukee Today blog post, the Olive Garden has been offering this option at lunch for years. For $6 or so, it can make for a great dining out value. Not to mention that soups and salads are generally healthier choices than burgers or entrees.
