 Roly Poly
If you're like me, then you struggle with picking up something
to eat that is healthy. There really isn't a lot of healthy choices
when it comes to fast food, especially if you're tired of eating
sandwiches.
Roly Poly is a wrap and salad shop that has two locations in
Raleigh. One downtown and another that has just recently opened
near the intersection of Edwards Mill Road and Ed Drive. The most
recently opened Roly Poly isn't exactly in a highly visible area.
It is tucked behind the 24 hour Eckerds on Edwards Mill Road.
I spotted it, just because I was curious about the new construction
in that area. I stopped by the Edwards Mill location this week
for lunch one time and then again for dinner on another day.
Roly Poly has a very large menu of various hot and cold wraps
to order. Upon first glance it's pretty overwhelming. Luckily
the first time that I visited Roly Poly they had a special that
day called the Turkey Gobbler. It consisted of turkey, cranberry,
cornbread stuffing, red onions, lettuce and dijon mustard. The
wraps typically come in a 6" for $3.75 or a 12" for
$5.95. (If you're hungry I would go with the 12" the 6"
wrap is not very big at all.) While I was waiting for my wrap
to be prepared, I was struck by the cleanliness of the restaurant.
It was obvious that they took pride in the restaurant. I got my
wrap and I took my first bite. It was pretty good, but upon my
second bite I discovered that there was no turkey in the wrap.
I guess they thought I looked like a vegetarian. But, never the
less, it was still a good change for me from the same old lunch
routine. I would order it again, but next time I would hope to
get some turkey.
Last night, I need to pick up something quick before I headed
out to a party and I decided to try out Roly Poly again. I ordered
a Hickory Chicken wrap, which is served hot. It consists of chicken
breast, cheddar cheese, onion, mushrooms, bacon, and bbq sauce.
The wrap is then grilled on both sides. I really didn't expect
it to be that great, but it turned out to be really tasty and
easy to eat on the go.
If you're looking for a somewhere to grab lunch or need to order
food in for the office, I think you should have a look at Roly
Poly.
