You may have noticed we’re a bit obsessed lately with whole wheat and whole grains. Why?
 To summarize, here’s reasons why whole gains are important: whole wheat and whole grains are complex carbohydrates giving you sustained energy and nutrition
high-fiber foods give you a ‘full’ feeling, helps us not to overeat
because the grain is not overly refined, it tends to retain more nutritional elements
Here’s a link to a wonderful article from MayoClinic.comon eating less refined grains, cereals, etc.

If you do, follow me, we have some fun things in the works.
What about knowing what’s fresh out of the oven?
What about specials when the dining room has too many empty seats?
What about you tell me???
And who’s an expert on social networking and wants to have a conversation about it in return for a Mäni’s card with a bunch of meals on it?
OK, Go!
Tell me what I should know!

Mäni’s High Protein Muffin was featured in today’s L.A. Times!
A lovely reader wrote in to request the recipe, which you can find here: LA Times ‘Big’ Muffin article
Shirley Shapiro said of Mäni’s muffins: “They are huge, delicious, healthful and so satisfying. There is a particular favorite of mine, a high protein muffin that, when eaten, makes one glow inside and feel healthy all day.” Thanks Shirley! We like the muffins too. So much, in fact, that we want to give you a free one! Mention this L.A. Times article when you come in to buy one of our tasty High Protein Muffins, and we’ll give you a free one with your purchase! Give a friend a healthy breakfast or save it for tomorrow! Offer good for a limited time only.

Maybe because it’s Gluten-Free? Maybe because it’s a looker? Maybe because it just taste so good! I think that’s why in just a few days this cake has become our most popular. Try it for yourself, or order it for your birthday. 
And yes you can eat the flowers, but I think the cake and the lemon curd are the best parts.

The debut of our new 100% whole wheat ciabatta was a total smash hit. It’s got that fantastic crackly crust, and has a spongy, light crumb. It’s all whole wheat, rare for a ciabatta bread, so it’s healthy too! It’s perfect for your favorite Mäni’s sandwich; we particularly like The Classic and The TBLT on whole wheat ciabatta. Come in and try it today!

A purely whole wheat ciabatta is hard to find! We think this one is absolutely fabulous! We want to know how you like it, though, so be sure to come by or call in your lunch order tomorrow! Pictured here is our new whole wheat ciabatta in our popular apple turkey sandwich
