| - After class today, I decided to stop by and see what kinds of products this place carries. I am not a vegan or vegetarian but I do like to eat more of a plant based diet with some clean protein thrown into the mix. As far as the store goes, there are a lot of supplements for vegans/vegetarians/meat-eaters alike. There's a small selection of food products including refrigerated food products. I noticed they had ezekiel bread which I eat but it's definitely not as cheap as say Sunflower Market sells it for. Even though I had read reviews of the food, I came here thinking I was NOT going to order any food from their small cafe but once I saw someone walking away with their to-go order of the Green Goddess sandwich, I figured why the hell not?! Since I had also read that service was on the slow side, I placed my to-go order and walked around the store one more time. Less than ten minutes later, the nice waitress was calling my name with my food. Yay! I ended up leaving with a weird combo of my sandwich, nutritional yeast and a Raw Revolution bar...which by the way, they do not have a big selection of bars :( Oh well, shouldn't be eating those anyways.
The sandwich looked pretty good and was served with purple corn tortilla chips, a salsa and some other freaking amazing sauce that I have no idea what it was...but it was amazing!!!! The sandwich itself was amazing too. Sprouts, tomatoes, purple onions, veganaise, daiya?, shredded beets and carrots. Every bite was heaven. The plan was to eat half for lunch today and the other half for tomorrows lunch...um, yeah, it will probably be gone before then. It is served in the softest wheat pita pocket I've ever had...so good. Didn't care too much for the chips so I didn't eat more than a few. I can't wait to go back and try the other stuff on the menu including some of the desserts.
For any raw foodists, there are raw meals on the menu and even some already prepared raw "pastas" in the refrigerated section that looks pretty good.
If this store had more selection in their grocery section then I'd probably give 5 stars BUT I will definitely be back to eat more of their deeeelish food!
