Fast food that won’t get you fat (as quickly)
June 18th, 2009 by Cliff Bostock in Restaurants
We paid a visit to Evos (5590 Roswell Rd., 404-252-4022) at the Prado in Sandy Springs last week. The restaurant, part of a popular chain headquartered in Florida, provides healthy alternatives to the usual fast food.
Fries, for example, aren’t fried at all. They are “air-baked” and quite tasty, especially with one of the flavored ketchups (right). We liked the mesquite best.
Burgers are low-fat and made with beef free of chemicals. Other alternatives include crispy fish sandwiches and wraps that are also prepared with the air-baking process.
More in this week’s Grazing.

I went there shortly after they opened. The fries were okay, but the burger had a really strange texture — very heavy and dense. I didn’t care for it. If I go back, I’ll order something different. I did like the ketchup varieties, especially the garlic.

foodieman, I don’t care about shout-outs, but you very obviously do as evidenced by your insistent flood of links you put up on here constantly.

I love the EVOS concept, but not the execution. My burger was grey and gummy…gross. I’ll give them another try and order a wrap instead.
