Habit Burger & Grill has introduced a new menu item — the Tempura Avocado Wedges. This addition aims to capitalize on the growing popularity of fried avocado.
Habit Burger & Grill's Tempura Avocado Wedges feature a light, crispy tempura batter infused with serrano and cilantro. These delectable flavors encase the warm, creamy avocado center. The new menu offering is served with the restaurant's signature house-made ranch dressing. The Tempura Avocado Wedges are available for a limited time, starting March 19. The food item is positioned as a crave-worthy side that aligns with current food trends and social media buzz around innovative avocado preparations.
To mark the launch, Habit Burger & Grill collaborated with Foodbeast to host the Avo-Lanche Experience, an art show celebrating avocado culture. The event will be hosted by UNFILTERED podcast creators Zane Hijazi and Heath Hussar.
