- Asian Chopped Salad
shredded cabbage, red pepper and mango with a side of sweet chili grilled chicken
- Hamburger
on a brioche bun with sharp cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, dill pickle slices, pickled onions and chips
- AVAILABLE BY PRE-ORDER ONLY - Fruit and Cheese Plate
fresh grapes and dried fruit with assorted cheeses
- AVAILABLE BY PRE-ORDER ONLY - Zoës Kitchen Charcuterie Plate
prosciutto, salami, mozzarella, spicy olives and dried cherry tomatoes; served with hummus, crudités and pita rounds
Here's my experience / recommendation:
Asian Chopped Salad: Horrible; chicken often resembles a dry hockey puck.
Hamburger: Salty carb-bomb.
Fruit / Cheese Plate: Lots of flavorless grapes; dried fruit often omitted.
Zoes Kitchen Charcuterie Plate: Unusually generous portions and high-quality for an airplane meal. The clear choice unless you are a vegetarian / vegan / pescatarian / graduate from Berkeley.
