La Strovia Health Food Cafe opens in downtown Plymouth

The owners of downtown Plymouth's newest breakfast and lunch spot are setting out to show that healthy, organic food does not equal bland or mean sacrifice. Bill Fryer and son Steve, along with Chef Ryan McKeon, are already seeing their La Strovia Health Food Cafe catch on with locals who are coming for omelets, crepes, salads, wraps and more. The food served at La Strovia is made with fresh ingredients and comes from local companies as much as possible. There are vegan and vegetarian items and a juice and smoothie bar. La Strovia opened in mid-September at 581 Forest Ave. "The hope is to teach consumers that a healthy meal can be just as delicious as traditional meals served by everyday restaurants and grills," says Fryer. La Strovia, which comes from a Polish expression for To Your Health, has a busy grab-and-go case as well as a dining room and juice bar. The cafe is folding in other healthy approaches by hosting yoga weekly and offering meal specials on yoga nights. Source: Bill Fryer, co-owner, La Strovia Health Food Cafe Writer: Kim North Shine
