The Grill at Green Hills inside Whole Foods launches a new seasonal menu today, rich in tomatoes and cucumbers. Located near the back of the store by the fish department, the Grill draws heavily on the fresh seafood available just across the aisle, with small plates, salads and entrees incorporating plenty of crabmeat, scallops and catfish. As always, Abita root beer is on tap, and this time there's a kids' menu, with PB&J and grilled cheese, and dessert--a cheesecake of the day. A full menu is available after the jump.
