Toss’t And Press’t – Salad and Sandwich Shop

Date:

“Since 2021, our salad bar has been inspired by the desire to create a healthy, fresh, and vibrant space in the community where nutritious food is accessible to all. As a Black-owned business, we’re passionate about promoting wellness through high-quality ingredients and offering a welcoming atmosphere where people can gather, enjoy delicious salads, and feel empowered to make healthier choices. Our mission is to blend cultural flavors with fresh, locally sourced produce, offering fresh salads and sandwiches that are both wholesome and full of flavors,” Britney Francis shared with Black Westchester.

I first came across this cozy eatery two blocks east of City Hall in downtown Mount Vernon when someone I knew was coming out of it as I passed by. They raved about it so I had to stop in and was impressed by the variety of salads, pressed sandwiches, fresh ingredients, and flavorful combinations. It was definitely a healthy alternative to the many fast food, pizza, Chinese food, soul food, and Jamaican restaurants in the city.

I always get the Jerk Ceasar Salad with shredded carrots, cucumbers, strawberries, and tomatoes with dried cranberries topped with their House Yardie Sauce. I also love the Spinach Patties but you got to get there early because they always sell out. And yes they have vegan options. Also check out their jerk Chicken, Rasta, or Salmon Taco Plates or Jerk, Seared Salmon or Rasta Sandwiches or Rice Bowls. Or grab a Peppa Shrimp, Stew Chicken, Beef, Fish Vegetable, or Spinach patties, they have something for everyone, and you will not be disappointed.

I strongly recommend this Black-Owned Business, stop by and tell them Black Westchester sent you.
