![]() ![]() It does give you a marvelously smooth chin. It’s slightly gentler, and slightly more affordable. If you are someone who has been getting facial waxing for years, you might want to check out threading. Even with the pandemic to consider, they seem to have taken on new threading artists, and where they used to manage the waiting list by a sheet of paper, they now have number slips, which work better. The only way Leila’s Brow Art has changed is that it’s growing. ![]() As far as I can tell, Andy’s Garage hasn’t changed in any other way. There has also been some shifting around.Īndy’s Garage and Leila’s Brow Art have moved to new positions nearer what I think of as “the front” of the market, i.e., where you enter coming from the lobby of the Midtown Exchange instead of from the street or transit station side. There have been four or five vendors who have left the market, some for larger spaces elsewhere, and two or three new ones have moved in since we last visited. But for now, keep an eye on their social channels to stay up-to-date on the latest.Midtown Global Market’s 2021 is faring better, slightly, than its 2020 did. The Midtown Global Market location is something of a pilot the long-term plan for NĀTIFS is to make the Indigenous Food Lab a sustainable model that could be replicated elsewhere throughout the country, at tribal-owned grocery stores from Wisconsin to Washington. The restaurant and tea bar will also be accompanied by a market, where you can shop for fresh tortillas, arepas, tostadas, and meats, along with cookbooks, kitchen supplies, and more.Ĭonstruction is currently underway-if you swing by the Global Market this week you'll hear saws buzzing and nail guns brrrapping-and the hope is to launch the food counter, tea bar, market, and education space simultaneously in late October or early November. Soon, that's where they'll host cooking demos and community classes. (When I stopped by earlier this week, I was able to sneak a sip of the Garden Tea: a hyper-refreshing blend of nettle, rose, and lemon balm sweetened with agave nectar.) They'll also serve chaga lattes and a few other blends from Anahata Herbals in Duluth.īehind the tea and food counters, across from the commissary kitchen, is an education space. The Swamp Blend is a mix of labrador, orange peel, elderberry, elderflower, linden leaf, spearmint, and tarragon the Xibalba Blend, named for the Mayan underworld, is lightly spiced with chipotle peppers. ![]() The food counter will be accompanied by a tea bar with an herbal specialist putting together an array of house-blend teas, all available hot, iced, or sparkling. Like Owamni, everything at the food counter and market will be made with Indigenous ingredients-no chicken or pork, no wheat or dairy, no anything that came from colonizing countries. Rotating proteins will include bison, turkey, and whitefish vegan options will include squash and mushrooms and the three sisters (corn, beans, and squash). The menu will take its cues from the four directions on a medicine wheel: As a base, you'll have your choice of grain bowls, salads, tacos, and a dish similar to a sope or huarache. The kitchen and educational center came to the old Kitchen in the Market space, where, the NĀTIFS team teased at the time, they might eventually start serving food.Īnd it's happening! In a few weeks, that commissary kitchen, which currently nixtamalizes corn, presses tortillas, and does all kinds of other prep work for Owamni, Sioux Chef Catering, and Tatanka Truck, will be joined by a food counter and tea bar, as well as a market and education space.
