The 4,000-square-foot building features a living roof, tables made from retired auto brake drums, upcycled metal and wood, solar panels on the drive-thru roof and a whole host of other environmentally friendly details.
“Our relationships with farmers and our knowledge of how to make delicious food on a large
scale has really made this project possible—we’ve been able to keep the quality high and the
prices reasonable” said Andy Berliner, co-founder of Amy’s Kitchen along with wife, Rachel, in a press release.

Before you go to eat at any vegan restaurant, you need to first visit http://www.naturalhealthstrategies.com/dangers-of-soy.html You will never want another tofu burger, soy chick sandwich again or soy-laced mayo and dressing ever again!
Integrating organic, NON-GMO soy into the diet of both carnivores, omnivores, vegetarians and vegans is a healthy practice. Consuming
a serving of unsweetened, organize soymilk each day is absolutely fine
for most folks and tofu dishes once or twice a week. Stories about too
much soy consumption are based on excessive amounts and for the
relatively small amount of people who may have soy allergies or post-menopausal women with sensitivities. Soy is a centuries-old proven part of a healthful diet with proven benefits.

Let me guess, we should eat and drink animal products, right?
