When I walked into Beat Da Wrap on a Wednesday afternoon, I could feel my stomach growl with hunger. I thought to myself, “This line is way too long, maybe I’ll just leave.”

But then, as soon I got a whiff of the delicious food cooking in the kitchen, my mouth started to water and I knew I absolutely had to eat there.

Of all the amazing choices on the menu, I knew exactly what I had to get. As I reached the cashier, the pleasant woman greeted me with a smile and asked “What can I get for you?” I immediately responded, “A chicken Caesar salad please!”

My friends and I all went and sat down at a big semicircle booth. When the food came, I couldn’t wait to eat it! The waiter handed me my fork and as I took my first bite, it was like biting into something so scrumptious words can’t even explain.

The fresh romaine lettuce crunched in my mouth, the creamy Caesar dressing complemented the sliced Romano cheese sprinkled on top, and the grilled chicken topped off the whole salad!

The chicken was cooked perfectly right and the salad was a great size. It was the best salad I had ever tasted in my whole life!

All in all, it was 100 percent worth waiting in line! I will definitely be going back!
