Painted Lady Organic Eatery

You didn’t realize you and Michael Moore were so much alike.

That is, until your last cholesterol test.

Tack on “get ass in gear” to your New Year’s resolutions and head over to newly opened Painted Lady Organic Eatery.

What was once Bleeding Heart Bakery is now a vegan-optional, certified organic lunch and dinner spot. Only Bleeding Heart’s kitschy decor remains.

The Lady serves up comfort food like Chicago cheese steak (optional vegan cheese, homemade seitan), Neato Mesquito (barbecue baked chicken or tofu), and super rich goat cheese mac ’n’ cheese. They’ve also got salads, pizzas, and a kickin’ drink menu (try the banana split mocha).

Pick up a Bleeding Heart vegan dessert at the end of your meal.

And then come back for Moore.
