LOKAL

Description

LOKAL is a new concept in healthy dining in Williamsburg Virginia. Working with local farmers, we utilize the freshest products while they are in season and preserve them to use them when they're not in season. This includes our gelato, frozen yogurt, breads, and fruits and vegetables used in desserts, salads, and soup. All of our menu items are made in-house or locally. Our gelato is made in-house with local milk from Old Church Creamery located in Mechanicsville, Virginia. The yogurt for our frozen yogurt also comes from .Old Church Creamery. We work with Old Church for two reasons. First, their herd of 34 grass-fed, Jersey cows produce A2 casein protein milk. This is important as A2 milk is easier for people with milk intolerance to digest. The second reason is that the milk is high in milk fat. This allows us to make the gelato and frozen yogurt without additional cream or eggs thereby keeping the total calorie content lower. By making our gelato and frozen yogurt in-house, we also control the amount of sugar. We use organic sugar produced in Florida. We do not add any corn derived sugar in any of our products. We also limit the amount of additional sugar from ingredients mixed into the gelato or frozen yogurt after it is made. The final two ingredients in our gelato and frozen yogurt are organic locust bean gum and organic agave inulin. Both of these ingredients help to make our gelato creamier without additional fat. Our breads are made from local or Nor
