Einstein Bros. Bagels and Noah's Bagels Introduce New 400 Calorie Lighter Fare Menus

New Breakfast and Lunch Items Deliver Great Taste and Quality Ingredients

Lakewood, Colo.,/PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- If you're looking to eat a little better these days, chances are you're probably counting your calories and finding that the math doesn't always add up.

In a time when menus can come with a generous portion of calories, Einstein Bros.(R) Bagels and Noah's Bagels(R) are introducing an all-new Lighter Fare menu, with three lunch items and two breakfast items, each containing less than 400 calories. The limited-time lunch menu will be available from April 1, 2009 through June 30 and the breakfast menu beginning July 1, 2009 through September 29 at participating Einstein Bros. and Noah's restaurants nationwide. Prices and locations subject to availability.
