Tender Greens Restaurant! Opening this week! Mmmmm.

Pasadena Now reports, “Tender Greens, an innovative chef-driven, fast-casual dining concept known for its farmer’s market sensibility and fresh, healthy fare, will open its newest location in Pasadena on or around July 8, 2011 – the sixth in California and the first 100% bottle free store.

 Located in the artsy, eclectic Playhouse District, the Pasadena location will feature a cool modern yet comfortable cozy décor designed by Valerio Architects that utilizes reclaimed wood from the former Lighthouse Restaurant in Santa Monica (the location of Tender Greens’ upcoming seventh location.) As part of Tender Greens’ ongoing dedication to an eco-friendly and sustainable philosophy, the restaurant will take reducing their carbon footprint to a new level by completely eliminating bottle consumption. In its place, the restaurant will serve beverages in glassware and use 100% recyclable containers. Tender Greens offers a variety of chef-inspired, slow food menu items prepared fast and affordable”
