BRADENTON, Fla., Jan. 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- , the leading Daytime Dining concept with more than 455 restaurants nationwide, is inviting guests to refresh, reset and realize their health-focused resolutions with a new seasonal menu featuring light, flavorful dishes. From an antioxidant-rich açai bowl topped with fresh berries to breakfast tacos packed full of chorizo-spiced cauliflower, First Watch’s latest seasonal selections are here to help jump start the new year with guilt-free and satisfying intentions.
“As much as I love all the richness that comes with the holiday season, the new year is the perfect time to hit that reset button and shift our minds toward making healthier choices, the kind that make you feel as good as they taste – I’m excited to say our newest menu does just that and more,” said Shane Schaibly, Senior Vice President of Culinary Strategy for First Watch. “From the Amazon rainforest to the fields of California, our customers will be able to explore approachable and colorful dishes made with ingredients like bright pesto and naturally sweet tangerine that take the guesswork out of dining without sacrificing any of the flavor.”

First Watch’s Triple Berry Açaí Bowl features fruit from organic wild harvest areas in the Amazon rainforest of Brazil, which accounts for over 85% of the world's acai production, in addition to an opportunity for customers to give back. For this dish, the concept has partnered with SAMBAZON® to use certified Fair Trade açaí that has been ethically harvested to support the local community and protect the ultra-unique biodiversity of the rainforest. To strengthen this work and preserve critical areas like the Amazon, First Watch is donating 25 cents to – a nonprofit organization which, to date, has protected over 42 million acres of rainforest – from the sale of every Triple Berry Açaí Bowl. These donations will not only go towards Rainforest Trust’s efforts to protect the Amazon but also to keep carbon safely stored and save endangered species.
First Watch’s new offerings are the latest in its revolving seasonal menu, which follows the sun to source the highest quality ingredients, wherever and whenever they are in season, five times a year. These flavorful, limited-time offerings are available to order alongside First Watch’s robust menu of breakfast, brunch and lunch favorites at most locations nationwide for pickup, delivery and dine-in service.
