Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Chrissie Hynde is opening a vegetarian restaurant here named VegeTerranean.

Hynde, lead singer of the Pretenders and Akron native, will sing accompanied by an acoustic guitarist at a free concert at the grand opening of the upscale restaurant on Sept. 15.

The restaurant will feature a blend of Mediterranean and vegetarian cuisine. No meat will be served.

Thanks for the heads up. :hi:

3. I hope it is done well, and popular enough to spread to other areas.

A successful vegetarian restaurant with a celebrity behind it might get a lot of good publicity.
