Ever fancied a parmo without feeling guilty about the calories?
Well a new Middlesbrough eaterie could be the place to visit.
Nosh Healthy Kitchen, on the corner of Southfield Road and Linthorpe Road, held a VIP event on Friday ahead of its grand opening to hungry Teessiders on Sunday.
And with a skinny parmo just one of the dishes on offer, it should prove popular with health-conscious eaters.
Jason Jahangiry, 25 and his chef dad Shari Jahangiry are behind the new venture - and Jason is looking forward to welcoming locals into his restaurant after gaining huge interest on social media.
“We wanted to create something different and healthy. People are more health conscious now, and want to go somewhere that caters to the type of diet they are following, whether that is slimming or building muscle,” said Jason, who moved from Durham to study product design at Teesside University.
“While it is going to be healthy, fast food, we still want people to identify with it so we are including dishes like the skinny parmo - which is baked, has half fat cheese and reduced fat bechemel sauce - so that people feel comfortable.”
More than 7,000 people have ‘liked’ the eaterie on Facebook ahead of it opening to the public at 11.30am on Sunday.
Jason said: “The response has been fantastic and shows that it is something Middlesbrough wants.
“Especially after seeing the article about Middlesbrough having one of the unhealthiest High Streets last week, I think healthy food is something to be welcomed.”
