Another Day of Vegan Food

Today I decided to go check out gyms. I'm a little late on the New Years resolutions but I decided to turn over a new leaf after packing on the obligatory holiday season pounds. I think I ultimately decided on Crunch. They have a boxing ring, live DJ's and even a Pogo Stick class. It sounds awesome! I'll let you know how it goes. All that gym shopping worked up an appetite so I ended up going to Atlas (73 Second Avenue between 4th and 5th.) I'm not going to lie, it was a disappointment. It was extremely small and cluttered, which is excusable but the service and food was also bad. It took forever for me to get my faux chicken crepe. Their was very little faux chicken in it. It was mostly vegan cream cheese and a few sections were just spinach and sundried tomatoes. It wasn't filled evenly at all. It was not tasty at all and I was extremely disappointed. At the end of my meal I used their bathroom that was behind the counter by the kitchen and it was disgusting. I couldn't even use it. When I came out I glanced at the kitchen and I could visibly see black grime on the kitchen counters!!! I was so grossed out! I was going to stay for dessert but after seeing that I had to leave. So instead I went to Stogo down the street (159 2nd Ave at 10th.) This place is totally amazing! It is a little ice cream shop with some other treats. I had a scoop of the chocolate hazelnut and a scoop of the mint chocolate chip ice cream. They were both delicious. The staff was so nice and friendly and the atmosphere is clean (unlike Atlas) and modern. I will definitely be back there soon. I really am going to need that gym membership...
