YPSILANTI, MI When one door closes, another opens for the vegetarian crowd looking for fast, simple dining options in Ypsilanti.
Gary and Miranda Sopoliga are taking over the space occupied by Veg-O-Rama to open Gora’s Grill, a new restaurant that will cater to similar vegetarian tastes.
Owner Prafulla Kharkar was selling Veg-O-Rama for personal reasons. The Sopoligas, regulars at the Harmony Collective, a Hare Krishna community center on Adams Street, were approached by the center’s director, Deva Madhava, who offered to back them with the funding needed to open their new restaurant at the location.
