Sweet Tomatoes

After getting Gracie checked in for service at Freedom RV, we headed out for lunch at Sweet Tomatoes. This is one of Carl's favorite eating places; he estimates that he and Sue ate at Sweet Tomatoes at least once a month for most of their married life. During COVID, the restaurants shut down and the chain closed. But one entrepreneurial fan of Sweet Tomatoes purchased the rights to use the name and the recipes and opened one of the former locations in Tucson. (I blogged about our visit last October when we were in Tucson for service too: https://journeyinamazinggrace.blogspot.com/2024/10/onwards-to-tucson.html)

It has a GIANT salad bar!

They also have many varieties of soups and pasta offerings as well.

Since you can get up and get more, there is a sign to leave on the table that, on one side indicates you're not done yet (green), and on the other, notifies the server that you are finished (red).

We were hoping to meet up with niece Ginny for lunch, but various things conspired against that happening. We're hoping that Ginny and family may come up to visit us in Mesa.
