Lime Green Bow Tie Vegan Peep Toe Wedge Featuring The Outfit Tote

As the warmer days of spring and summer approach it’s time to start buying some kick ass animal friendly sandals that show off your freshly painted toes.  New to our collection of amazing vegan shoes are the Ibiza crinkle vegan gladiator sandals and a bow tie peep toe vegan wedge.

We chose a wedge with a very slight heel (only 2 inches) and a faux leather bow tie on the top of each toe.  These look great with a summery dress but would also be cute with a pair of dark skinny jeans.  You can get a pair of these feminine peep toes in bright lime green or simple black.  Definitely a steal at $38 so be sure to order soon as stock is limited.  And by the way that super cute bag pictured with the wedges is the “Green’s My Favorite Color” vegan tote by The Outfit.  You can check out all The Outfit totes here.

The crinkled faux leather Ibiza sandals are available in black or brown and retail for only $35.  They have a thin flexible sole and a zipper on the back making them quicker to put on than a pair with multiple buckles.  The thin non leather straps look delicate and feminine but are also very durable.  Perfect to wear with a pair of shorts on a weekend shopping trip with the girls.

Don’t forget we also have tons of last season’s hottest styles of vegan sandals on sale for 50% off! Want more vegan wedge sandals?? We’ve got those too.  And take a look at our full selection of vegan gladiator sandals. Happy shopping!

The vegan grilled cheese was  first and I was not impressed.  Two normal slices of bread with a dab of cheese and they forgot the tomato.  Tasted fine but for $4.50 not worth it.  This one gets a 2 out of 10.  Grilled cheese is something super easy to make at home so if you offer it in a restaurant it needs to be different.

Where's my tomato?!?!

Next I tried the field roast sausage sandwich which was much larger on a toasted french roll.  It is supposed to come with onions & peppers but the cook must have been forgetful that day because there was none on my sandwich.  Luckily I hate onions so I didn’t mind but I would have enjoyed the peppers.  There was an ample amount of “sausage” and the marinara sauce was great.  A perfect amount of Daiya cheese as well.  It was definitely messy to eat and the picture doesn’t really do it justice but I would give it an 8 out of 10.  Totally worth the $5.50.

I definitely saved the best for last… the Gardein chicken pesto sandwich was amazing!!  It had all the ingredients promised on the menu and was also on a large french roll so it was very filling.  It cost $6.50.  I would give it a 10 out of 10.  Good job Purgatory!

If you decide to try any of these vegan sandwiches CALL BEFORE YOU GO!  If you can’t call and they are out of bread (which I was told happens often) you can always grab a pizza.

Last weekend I stopped by and picked up a simple pie with pesto, olives, green peppers and Daiya cheese which is pictured below.  I would have gotten a better picture had I not eaten half of the pizza in the car before I took it.  Needless to say Purgatory’s pizza is amazing!  And I was excited to see on their menu after I got home that they are now offering a Vegan Pesto Chicken Sandwich with Gardein chicken, pesto, vegenaise, tomato, spinach and basil on a french roll as well as a Vegan Grilled Cheese with Daiya cheddar and tomatoes on sourdough.  I’ll be stopping by some time this week to try them both (stay tuned for pics and reviews).

They have another sandwich listed, the Italian Sausage Sandwich, which is not offered as vegan but I imagine they would be willing to substitute the field roast sausage and daiya cheese.  It also has onions, bell peppers and marinara.

Take a look at their online menu for prices and a full list of toppings.  They deliver with a $10 minimum purchase.  Seating is available to eat inside but there are only a couple tables.  I’ve never been for lunch (only pickup around dinner time) but I imagine if they get busy it would be hard to eat inside.  But this pizza is good enough to eat standing up in a corner if you ask me!
