Soho Natural

One of my friends live just by this place. So I know this when I came with her to buy something for house. Service at night mode was not satisfactory. Due to the selection of products and collections they should be given three.

This is a strikingly beautiful restaurant. Although it serves meat, it has a few vegetarian (some vegan) options that don’t feel like side dishes. We enjoyed the spring rolls and the bread basket had carrot and whole grain breads. The chicken burger was juicy and nicely seasoned. Alas, I had the steamed veggies and brown rice. It was over powered with kale and I seriously thought I was eating houseplants. I have been here before, however, and forgive the faux pas. I should have made a better choice. There are candles on every table at night and the space is very large. You will not be eating on someone else’s lap.

It crosses my mind about once or twice a week to sit down and write «SoHo Natural» (the name itself is something of a sick joke) a three page scathing letter whose meat boils down to, «Just who the hell do you think you are?»
Let this brief review serve as a stand-​in. Take this, SoHo Natural — awkward third-​party indirect non-​confrontational criticism.
Firstly: Counter-​lady — what happened, man? When I first started working down the street I came in every day, cheerful as a Disney, and with a few friendly exchanges I believed that we were buddies. Fast forward to just five minutes ago and every still-​daily visit since, and we’ve all the civility of arch-​nemesi (nemesis, nemesises?). I’ve even taken to wearing headphones throughout our transaction. That’s just sad.
Secondly: SoHo Natural — just what sort of muscular all-​encompassing, multi-​level deli do you see when you look in the mirror? I’m sure it is impressive, but I’d like to remind you that in the gym of delis, you’re knee-​sock short-​short taped-​glasses guy. And the price hike? What gives? Just because Duke is right around the corner and charges a little more doesn’t mean you can match, they’ve a class you can’t even emulate.
And as I grow weary of these long-​winded, non-​specific criticisms: your sandwiches are either dad-​comedy dry or dripping-​through-​wax paper greasy, your fruit and produce are only just passable, and your attitude reeks to Broadway.
There, I feel better.
See you tomorrow, SoHo Natural.

I don’t know why my friends would keep coming here even after they coin this place’s name as SUICIDE. (Since rumor has it, someone died after eating their food!)
We never refer to this place as their true name — so it took me awhile to finally figure out this was Suicide.
«Where you going?»
«Suicide!»
“I am going to run over to Suicide!“
Sure, it’s close to where they are, but so is Duke’s! (a lot more selection and cleaner)
They don’t offer an already prepared fruit salad and if you go to to the cold plate line — the selection of cut fruit is slim and nor do they look fresh or pretty.
The salad selection is so sad and poor looking.
I would only come here to buy drinks, snacks, or simple breakfast items (i.e egg w/​cheese on a roll or just grilled cheese not an omelet!)

I love how I’ve searched for every combination of «food,» «cheap lunch,» and «Soho» in Unilocal’s search engine, and the only way I came up with this place was to search «hangover.» Thank you, Lauren S. :)
I had the chicken caesar wrap and it was pretty standard — croutons, dressing (I asked for extra and was sorely disappointed by what they considered «extra»), lettuce and chicken grilled on a massive Foreman-​style grill. I gotta give this place major points for having Kinder candies though. The hazelnut-​filled milk wafer things are amazing, and definitely harder to come by in the States.
The ladies at the checkout are also insane. I’ve been rushed before, but wow. This was madness, and trying to process it all with a hangover really strained my functioning brain cells…
So let’s recap: food is average; salad bar charges $ 1 for cheese and $ 2 for chicken to be added into a normal salad; cashiers rush you; Kinder candies are awesome. Capiche?

Seriously the best and cheapest egg on a bagel in town (2.50) plus their veggie burger at lunch can come with tatter tots! If you have a hangover this is totally the place to come. If you are in line wondering… where are the condiments? They are behind you in front of the salad bar.
