Hello friends! I am eating some delicious food right now and I wanted to share it with you all. Not literally share the food, because by the time you read this I will be done and also this is my lunch so I probably wouldn’t want to share anyway.
Maybe some of you have heard of the wonderful majestic heaven known as
THE HAWK’S NEST
but maybe some of you have not.
That’s where I come in.
This right here, is my favourite meal. Ever. Greek wrap [no tomatoes] and a Sobe citrus energy. The Hawk’s Nest does this awesome thing where they make THEIR OWN HOMEMADE FLATBREAD for the wraps and then SLAP IT ON THE GRILL REAL QUICK before wrapping your delicious fixins inside and it’s just the chewiest most delicious wrap you will ever wrap your face around.
THE WRAPS.
- The Greek – Trudy’s favourite. Romaine lettuce, tomatoes, kalamata olives, feta, roasted red peppers, cucumbers, red onions, and Greek dressing.
- Chicken Caesar – I’ve actually never had this before, even though I LOVE Caesar salad. Whenever I want a salad-y wrap I just can’t deny the Greek. Anyway, simplicity is best with Caesar: grilled chicken, romaine lettuce, parmesean cheese, and Caesar dressing. Both Brady and Brit have had it before and highly recommend it.
- Honey Mustard Chicken – grilled or crispy chicken tossed with mesculin greens, tomatoes, red onions, and the best honey mustard I’ve ever had. Trudy recommends the crispy chicken because yolo.
- NEW Buffalo Chicken Wrap – I’ve yet to try this, but I plan to soon because who doesn’t love buff chix. Grilled or crispy buffalo chicken, bleu cheese crumbles, lettuce, tomato, and onion. Great.
- NEW Veggie & Hummus Wrap – I also haven’t tried this yet, but I do love hummus and portabello so I may soon. Fresh made garlic lemon hummus, portabello mushrooms, grilled zucchini and summer squash, tomatoes, vidalia onions, and red peppers. Brit just tried this today for lunch and had some choice words about it. “Too many onions. And it was soggy! *sad face with tongue sticking out and a tear drop/icky face*”
SAMMICHES.
- The River Hawk – classic 1/3lb Angus burger with lettuce, tomato, and onion.
- The Bird of Prey – another favourite of mine. BBQ ranch burger with cheddar, bacon, friend onion strings, and lettuce. WHAT MORE COULD YOU WANT ON A BURGER
- The Wood Hawk – classic grilled chicken on delicious ciabatta bread. YUM
- The Fire Hawk – I’m a wimp and haven’t tried this yet because I’m not a huge fan of spicy sammiches, but it looks pretty good! Grilled chicken, chipotle aioli, jack cheese, lettuce, and tomato.
- The “Toma”Hawk – this was actually the first thing I ever ordered at The Hawk’s Nest, back in Spring of ’12 when I wasn’t eating meat. I have a strict repulsion to tomatoes but I was like yolo and got it anyway. It’s yellow tomatoes, basil, and smoked provolone on Texas toast. It. Is. Amazing.
- The Bleu Jay – classic burger topped with bleu cheese and bacon. I’m really not a fan of bleu cheese so I haven’t had it, but I’m sure it’s wonderful if you do! Everything with bacon is good.
- NEW The Greek Burger – basically the Greek wrap in burger form, so I had to try it. classic burger topped with feta cheese, lettuce, kalamata olives, onion, tomato, and Greek dressing. My new favourite burger.
- NEW Portabello Burger – now, I love portabello mushrooms so I wanted to try this real bad. It’s a grilled portabello cap with lettuce, vidalia onion, jack cheese, tomato, grilled zucchini and summer squash, and their “Boom Boom” sauce. I’m not a huge fan of zucchini/squash, or most gourd-like veggies, but as the motto says..yolo. The grilled veggies were actually real good, but I did not like the boom boom sauce. I don’t know what’s in it, but it was spicy and kind of weird to me? Oh well. To each their own. Maybe it was the jack cheese. I’m just not a spicy cheese person.
- NEW Pesto Chicken – SO GOOD. Grilled chicken, provolone, pesto, and spinach on delicious ciabatta bread. The Italian in me loves it, as well as the person-who-likes-good-food in me.
- NEW Chili Cheese Burger – CHILI AND CHEESE?! Grand. Classic burger topped with chili, nacho cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onion.
EAT FOOD YEAH
Love, Trudy.
