Pure Food & Wine, ‘Snice, New York City

www.purefoodandwine.com

Part of my adventures in New York City today with friends included going to Pure takeaway, where you can order salads, sandwiches/light dinner items, juices, smoothies, and desserts, all raw and mostly vegan, with some items containing bee products.  I got a salad with dulse, rosemary crackers, hempseeds, avocado, and cucumber.  It was one of the best things salads I had ever had, albeit pretty rich with the avocado, hempseeds, crackers, and dressing.  I really like dulse on salads.  Sue and I also got caramel bars, with chocolate on top, just the right size and very delicious, not too sweet. 

In addition, I got some thumbprint cookies with raspberry filling, an expensive treat that I’m pretty sure was also dehydrated, but how many times do I have the chance to indulge in such things?  The raspberry flavor is awesome.  I highly recommend trying Pure.  Next time we plan on getting the ice cream.

Sadly, my pictures of ‘Snice didn’t turn out well, but it is a salad and sandwich place with coffee and espresso drinks, teas, and desserts such as cakes, cupcakes, muffins, and cookies.  Most items are vegan, and I heard good reviews of the vegan panini sandwich.  I got the house salad, a HUGE plateful of mixed greens with shaved carrots and cherry tomatoes.  I was very pleased!
