I had been longing to try PRI for quite a while, so was happy to finally get there a week or two ago. I decided to try a slice of the vegan Chef's Choice since I had heard a lot about it, and I was really hungry so I figure a slice is the way to go... well I think I was wrong on that, because I waited for over an hour to get my slice of pizza and only got it after I asked the lady about it. I could tell food was taking a while to come out since people who were there before I was didn't get there orders for quite a while, but man, an hour for a slice?? That said, it was a damn good slice of pizza. Like really really good. So I would probably give it a 9 or 10, but that hour wait really soured me. Plus I thought I saw a small stray strand or two of cheese on my vegan slice, causing me to remove bits of veggies to make sure it was all off...
Amazing vegan desserts. I got a piece of pumpkin cake with "cream cheese" frosting, and a peanut butter cup, and a raspberry fritter and it was all really super yummy. This place is a must hit in Eugene.
I really want to like Piece of Cake because I love anyone who offers vegan desserts, but the last couple times we have gotten their vegan cupcakes from New Seasons, they are just not good. They are dry and they have weird things in them (like they are using agar but didn't dissolve it all, so it's like little jelly pieces or something?) and yeah it's not good. I am just not buying their stuff anymore when I can get Sweet Pea instead and it is always good.
Stuck up here in Everett and looking for vegan food, I found this listing here at vegguide... so I trekked up to Arlington, about 20 minutes North (not sure why it is listed under Everett...) and found this cute little place. The people were super friendly and my vegan pesto avocado burger was very tasty, crunchy with walnuts in the pesto, if a little short on the avocado side. The ciabatta bun was great and the burger came out piping hot. A good selection of vegan items and I would definitely recommend taking the drive up if you find yourself up in the Everett area.
They also have a gift shop thing going on, selling lotions and incense and other hippie kinda stuff. My seat was a little smelly for my taste, but I was right by a large display of oils or incense or something. Just something to be aware of for the fragrance sensitive...

Had a late breakfast here a week or two ago. Service was really fast, my vegan breakfast sandwich was really good. Nice selection of vegan items on the menu! Definitely will go back again when in Eugene and try out some of the other stuff.
