farbes article

AKRON, Ohio: Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Chrissie Hynde will open a vegetarian restaurant in her hometown of Akron, Ohio, late this summer.

Hynde, lead singer of the Pretenders, has decided to name the restaurant VegeTerranean, according to the Akron Beacon Journal. She will sing accompanied by an acoustic guitarist at a free concert at the grand opening of the restaurant Sept. 15.

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

Hynde lives in England but will partner with Dan Duplain, owner of Fedeli restaurant in downtown Canton, so that a local person will be involved permanently with the venture.
