A Visit to Lyfe Kitchen


Image removed

Lyfe Kitchen, which opens its first Memphis location Thursday, held a media preview today. Bianca and I were pumped to go. Let’s just say our expectations were exceeded. 

The airy restaurant, in the old Sharky’s space, offers healthy food that doesn’t feel forced. Lots of produce, grains — all dishes are under 600 calories. There is no fryer and they don’t use white flour or white sugar. 

Celebrity chef Art Smith, who works with the restaurant and was on hand Wednesday said, “This is the future of food — whole, delicious, and affordable.”
