Chicago's First My Fit Foods Opens on Halsted (PHOTOS)
The Texas-based company is zeroing in on Chicago, brining its half grocery store, half takeout restaurant concept to new spaces in Lake View and Lincoln Park.
One of the Midwest and Chicago's first My Fit Foods opened up shop Saturday in Boystown, claiming a storefront formerly occupied by Windy City Video.
Located at 3701 N. Halsted St. across from Whole Foods, the Lake View location is one of three new My Fit Foods storefronts planned for Chicago. Another also opened Saturday at 157 W. North Ave. in Lincoln Park, and the third still under wraps.
The trio will join close to 60 other My Fit Foods in five other states.
The store is run like a cross between a takeout restaurant and grocery store, where fresh meals focused on health are whipped up daily. And with personal trainer and My Fit Foods founder Mario Mendias touting 80 percent of weight loss results are due to diet, the store is aiming to make healthy living easier.
