Restaurant chains aren’t often of the health-conscious variety—burgers and fries tend to be the foods of choice…with some exceptions. Maoz Vegetarian, a much-lauded franchise from Amsterdam, is quietly establishing itself throughout the city. Having already staked out spots on Union Square and 8th Street, it plans to open its third location this September at 2047 Broadway between 70th and 71st Streets. According to PR rep Brook Frye, "We hope to open 10 or 11 stores within the next couple years; as many as the city can support." Well, it sure beats McDonald’s.









This is welcome and great news, as it’s always better to have more healthy restaurants around. Check out Eco-Eating at http://www.brook.com/veg for more info on meat & vegetarianism.
Love Maoz! I stumbled (literally stumbled) upon it while abroad in Amsterdam, immediately looked it up online, and was pleased to find a few locations in America. I hope more franchises open soon!
