A client of mine really likes this place called Lucky Platter, located at 514 Main St in Evanston. I have come to really enjoy it as well.

Two usuals for me are a cup of the very fresh, chunky Gazpacho and the Chopped Salad which consists of jicama, red peppers, corn, tomatoes, red onions,carrots, green peppers and your choice of feta or blue cheese. I go for the blue cheese w/their soy mustard vinegarette.
She prefers the Grilled Chicken and Avocado Salad with sundried tomatoes, and artichoke hearts.

An amazing appetizer has been the Fried Green Tomatoes served with a shrimp remoulade sauce. The tomatoes have just a hint of cornmeal breading, yum.

Of course we ruin our healthy eating by always ordering a basket of delish Sweet Potato Fries.

I have only eaten at Lucky Platter for lunch, but it is open for breakfast and dinner as well.

Today had the mixed mushroom quesadilia (sp?) w/a little goat cheese mixed in and fresh made salsa. Very good.

Also a bowl of the Caribbean Pumpkin Soup. Outstanding!

Biz partner had the Avacado salad his usual and he stated as usual it was great.

Split an order of corn bread that I like to put some honey on top of to start.

Bill was $15 total. Quite a deal and quite a meal.
