“At Panera, we change our menu regularly to bring in the flavors of the seasons and we’re thrilled to offer our East Coast guests two outstanding Lobster entrees for the summer,” says Panera’s head chef and chief innovation officer, Claes Petersson. “Pairing juicy, delicious lobster with our iconic mac & cheese is truly The Familiar, Made Fantastic – and it’s a bold flavor sensation we think our guests will wish could be on the menu all year round.”
