Salted Caramel. Chicken, Fig & Brie. Asparagus & Pea Soup. Au Bon Pain's new early spring menu has something for everyone. Today marks the start of the spring seasonal menu, and it is filled with re-imaginings of favorite items. Au Bon Pain's signature hot croissant goes savory with a Parmesan cheese and leek filling, while its CroisBun gets topped with mocha cheese filling and fresh raspberries. For those seeking fresh, healthful avocado options, the Southwest Chicken Salad is filled with a mix of black beans, corn and the fruit of the hour—avocado, while the Chipotle Turkey and Avocado sandwich is complemented with sliced avocado.
The menu also highlights seasonal menu items asparagus, leeks and fig.
"Fig perfectly complements brie and chicken to create a distinctive flavor for spring and a delicious lunchtime sandwich," said Maria Feicht, Au Bon Pain's chief brand officer. "For those who want to reach for an afternoon treat, the raspberry torsade is a great option because it is very delicious but also has a low calorie count. And, for those who want to indulge a little, the Mocha CroisBun is topped with raspberries—allowing guests to savor fresh fruit on a pastry item."
