First Watch, the award-winning Breakfast, Brunch and Lunch restaurant, today unveiled its limited-time fall menu signifying the coming of autumn The daytime café’s seasonal dishes – like the favorite Pumpkin Pancake Breakfast and the new Harvest Hash – are made using honest ingredients like natural Pumpkin puree and real sweet potatoes while eschewing synthetic flavors reinforcing what the restaurant was founded upon: using the finest ingredients possible for the freshest tastes around.
First Watch’s 2014 fall menu brings back a few dishes by popular demand and takes a contemporary twist on some new items. The Tastes of Fall offerings are available through Sunday, Nov. 30:
Harvest Hash
Two eggs any style atop a hash of sweet potatoes, turkey sausage, house-roasted zucchini, Crimini mushrooms and shallots topped with hollandaise sauce and fresh herbs. Served with lemon-dressed greens.
Roasted Butternut Squash Quinoa Bowl
Pumpkin Pancake Breakfast
Butternut Squash Bisque (vegetarian)
“Our goal was to infuse the dishes with spices and flavors true to the fall season,” said Shane Schaibly, First Watch’s corporate chef and director of culinary. “All too often autumn means a flood of pumpkin-spiced synthetic flavorings. The truth is nothing does a better job of capturing fall than fresh, high-quality ingredients such as pumpkin puree, sweet potatoes, butternut squash and turkey sausage.”
Taking freshness to heart, First Watch offers 100% fresh-squeezed Orange Juice, house-made granola and salsa, house-roasted vegetables and looks to source produce locally whenever possible. In addition to serving fresh, delicious entrées, First Watch offers its exclusive Sunrise Select® Premium Blend Coffee. The special blend is made from slow-roasted, hand-selected, high-grown coffee beans from mountains across North, Central and South America.
First Watch serves its entire menu seven days a week from 7 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. The restaurant also offers guests complimentary newspapers and free Wi-Fi Internet access.
