View from Mukti's Health Food looking over Ganges River
One of the best parts of Haridwar/Rishikesh is the easy abundance of health food. Yoga followers flock here en mass so restaurants and cafe owners have catered their menus to include vegetarian meals, lots of fresh fruits, yogurts and other “earthy” choices. Mukti’s Health Food sits just steps off the Lakshman Jhula bridge of Rishikesh serving up excellent Ganges River views. Seating can be a bit cramped when the morning rush piles in, but like the small cafes of Mcleodganj and Manali, that’s how you make contacts.
Grab a table and menu in this breezy Indian cafe and within seconds you’ll be surrounded by conversation from all around the globe. When I stopped in, it was initially because of the location, view, and my hunger pains. Enjoying a tasty ‘Whole Foods’ type meal and receiving some tips for the town from fellow diners was a bonus. Espresso is available as well as freshly baked homemade bakery treats for the road.
