Political environment shifts around Minneapolis WHAT STATE AND NATIONAL REPUBLICAN VICTORIES COULD MEAN FOR THE CITY

By Dylan Thomas / dthomas@journalmpls.com

M

inneapolis residents reliably returned their DFL state legislators to the state capitol on Election Day, at the same time giving 174,585 votes to the Democratic presidential ticket of Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine — nearly four out of five votes cast in that race.

And then the political world shifted around Minneapolis.

A Donald Trump-led Republican wave helped to flip the state Senate to the GOP, which also maintained control of the House, setting up potential obstacles to Minneapolis’ agenda in St. Paul. The president-elect’s rhetoric on the campaign trail — especially comments that targeted

women, immigrants and Muslims — also stirred up fears about what a Trump administration might mean for Minneapolis residents and prompted a series of post-election demonstrations, including Nov. 10 march through the West Bank neighborhood and onto Interstate-94 that was joined by thousands.

“I will never support him,” said Jennifer Gilles of Longfellow, who showed up at the rally bearing a sign that read “Not my president.” Gilles said she was particularly concerned about a potential erosion of women’s reproductive rights and environmental protections during a Trump presidency.

Surge of new hotel rooms hits downtown

By Eric Best / ebest@journalmpls.com From the Hewing to the Radisson Red, hotel after hotel is being proposed for downtown Minneapolis.

The first of many new hotels downtown, four in total, are hitting the market this fall. While local leaders say there was pent-up demand in the local hospitality industry, there’s also concern, including from Council Member Jacob Frey who represents much of downtown Minneapolis, that developers may be overbuilding in preparation for big events like the Super Bowl in 2018 and the Final Four game in 2019.

“I’m thrilled with the influx of new hotel operators. There was demand and it was needed, but we’re also trying to prepare for a future well beyond [the Super Bowl],” Frey told The Journal. “I’m all for party planning, but you also have to clean up in the morning when the party is finished.”

In October and November, the Hewing Hotel (124 rooms), the AC Hotel by Marriott (245 rooms), Embassy Suites by Hilton (290 rooms), Radisson Red (164 rooms) and the tiny hotel at Restaurant Alma (seven rooms) are beginning to

open. Right now, Meet Minneapolis, the city’s convention and visitor association, is tracking more than 2,400 rooms across the Twin Cities in various states of development, according to Brent Foerster, senior vice president of destination sales and services. That’s on top of the roughly 7,800 rooms spread across downtown.

But why now? As the economy bounces back, occupancy is on the rise, businesses are relocating downtown and activity generators like U.S. Bank Stadium are now open. Foerster said hotel develSEE HOTELS / PAGE 8

GREEN DIGEST

By Nate Gotlieb ngotlieb@journalmpls.com @NateGotlieb

Northeast rain garden to give students hands-on experience in science When Edison High School began its green campus initiative a few years ago, parents at Northeast Middle School wanted to do something similar on a smaller scale.

They decided on a rain garden in an underused portion of the school parking lot, hoping to beautify the school while giving students a new learning opportunity. The group worked with the school, the Audubon Neighborhood Association and the Mississippi Watershed Management Organization to secure funding on the project, now nearing completion after about two-and-a-half years.

School and community leaders say the project will help prepare students for the green curriculum at Edison and expose them to a best practice in protecting water quality.

“We’re hoping that this generation, they take it from cutting edge to normal,” said Ward 1 Council Member Kevin Reich, who chairs the Mississippi Watershed Manage-

ment Organization.

Edison has undertaken several projects as part of its green campus initiative, including a stormwater reuse system, solar production, a greenhouse and a redesigned parking lot that can capture and treat more than 47,000 gallons of polluted stormwater runoff at a time. The school has also integrated the features into its programming, including its International Baccalaureate biology courses.

The parents at Northeast decided to prioritize the water component. They got nearly $60,000 in funding from the Mississippi Watershed Management Organization and hired landscape architect Civil Site Group to design a plan.

Civil Site Group worked on the plan last year with Northeast students who were part of an after-school science, technology, engineering and math club led by teacher Yosefa Carriger. The kids surveyed the site and

created the designs, principal Vernon Rowe said, noting that the students took ownership of the project.

“They could tell you everything,” Rowe said.

“They wanted to see it through to conception.”

The rain garden is designed to remove silt and pollution from surface runoff water. It captures the water and filtrates it through different soils and roots, helping to reduce flooding potential and keep pollutants from local streams and lakes.

Rowe said he hopes to use part of the grant money to install an LED sign in one corner of the garden. The school is also planning to install a greenhouse, he said, and already incorporates water recycling, sustainability and aquaponics (recycling nutrients from aquatic animals) into its curriculum.

“It’s about expanding our kids’ knowledge base and their opportunities,” Rowe said. “We do that, and we’re going to do wonders for our kids.”

Minneapolis, Air National Guard honored with cleanenergy awards The Minnesota Department of Commerce has awarded the City of Minneapolis and the Minneapolis-based Minnesota Air National Guard, 133rd Air Wing 2016 Clean Energy Community Awards.

The department gave the honor to Minneapolis for the city’s clean energy partnership with Xcel Energy and CenterPoint Energy. The partnership aims to help the city hit its goals of 30-percent greenhouse gas reduction by 2025 and 80-percent reduction by 2050.

The 133rd Air Wing was honored for being “a long-standing leader within the Air National Guard and the local community when it comes to optimizing facility energy efficiency.” The base decreased its total annual energy intensity 40 percent from 2003 to 2015 and its total annual water intensity by nearly 50 percent from 2007 to 2015, according to a Commerce Department release.

The two communities were among eight honored by the department.

Northern Coffeeworks

Angry Catfish Bicycle + Coffee Bar owner Josh Klauck is starting Northern Coffeeworks, a new coffee venture that will be based out of the former Big Brain Comics space near the Mill District.

Klauck said he and partner Jeff Hilligoss have signed a lease for the former home of the longstanding comics store and a neighboring space to the west — a total of 2,400 square feet on the ground level — for a new third-wave coffee shop.

Northern Coffeeworks is a departure from Angry Catfish, a combination bike shop and coffee bar in South Minneapolis. The

café on Washington Avenue in Downtown East won’t have retail or repair services, but he said it might display some wares from his similarly branded custom frame business, Northern Frameworks.

Klauck said he’s currently working with an architect to design the space near Washington & 11th. His plan is to open Northern Coffeeworks next spring.

Big Brain Comics, a longtime fixture of the local comics and cartooning scene, closed earlier this year at 1027 Washington Ave. S. after about two decades in business.

Eastside Food Co-op

Eastside voted last month not to merge with The Wedge and Linden Hills co-ops and will remain independent.

Votes to approve consolidation reached 81.9 percent at the Wedge, 87.3 percent at Linden Hills and 51.3 percent at Eastside.

Eastside needed a super-majority (66.66 percent) as required by the state in order to join the merger. Eastside’s voter turnout reached 22 percent of members.

“The consolidation strategy was about building a stronger local food system in the Twin Cities and better serving all our individual neighborhoods,” Amy Fields, Eastside Co-op general manager, said in a statement. “While we’re disappointed with the decision, we will continue to serve our

owners and our communities.”

Eastside members elected at least three board candidates who were running on a platform against consolidation. Some expressed concerns about an oversized focus on profits and potential loss of community oversight in a merger.

Those advocating for consolidation said it would improve the bottom line for all of the co-ops.

Wedge and Linden Hills will legally consolidate on June 30, 2017. In the coming months, the two boards will select a consolidated co-op board, followed by the appointment of separate councils dedicated to each store.

Fly Feet Running

The gym door at Fly Feet Running reads “one big endorphin party.”

The new fitness studio in downtown Minneapolis hopes to take gym rats, many of them runners who have hit a wall in their workouts, and coach them to hit the gym smarter — and have more fun in the process.

The concept is already attracting devotees.

Before it officially opened in mid-November, founder and former Target merchandising executive Kristin Shane said Fly Feet had hit 100 founding members.

“To have 100 members before you even officially open your doors feels good,” Shane said.

Fly Feet Running is located on the main floor of the Bob Dylan mural-clad 15 Building near the corner of Hennepin & 5th. Nearly 1,000 square feet of retail space for fitness apparel, which skews toward women’s workout clothing, greets members before they hit a long fitness studio lined with treadmills. Fly Feet primarily carries emerging brands like Vimmia, Lukka Lux and Splits 59, as well as its own line of T-shirts, hats and other clothing. It also sells a small selection of beauty and personal care products, including from local company Njord, and books on dieting and fitness.

“I brought in a lot of brands that are really cool but you can’t find in the Twin Cities,” she said.

Inside the studio, Fly Feet has coaches — rather than instructors — who design daily workouts and walk members through the motions of hour-long, roughly 20-member classes, which have a spin class environment with music and colored lights.

Aaron Leventhal, a former Minnesota Thunder player and the founder of St. Louis Park-based Fit Studios, is Fly Feet’s director of fitness and coaches. The studio specializes in high-intensity interval training, which consists of aggressive regimens of running on treadmills, lifting kettlebells and an array of other activities. Each class should feel like a personal training session, he told The Journal earlier this fall.

The studio offers memberships for $179 per month and packages of 10, 20 and a few introductory classes. Fly Feet typically hosts classes in the morning, during the lunch hour and after work.

Fly Feet Running officially opened Nov. 14 at 15 S. 5th St. A class schedule is available at flyfeetrunning.com.

Evermore Wedding Gown Care has replaced lingerie shop Flirt Boutique in the North Loop’s Colonial Warehouse building.

The shop, which opened Nov. 1, offers gown cleaning, preservation, alteration and restoration services for wedding parties. It is owner Steve Rettler’s second location after a flagship location in New Hope. Rettler also owns All Seasons Garment Care & Tailoring inside MartinPatrick3, the neighboring men’s apparel and lifestyle boutique, and in the nearby Heritage Landing building.

St. Paul-based Flirt Boutique opened in the space last fall, but closed earlier this year.

Owner Jessica Gerard is planning a new store in MSP Airport’s Terminal 1 as part of a new batch of retailers coming to the airport.

Evermore will have a grand opening on Dec. 10 at 212 3rd Ave. N. Its hours are 10 a.m.–6 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 10 a.m.–3 p.m. Friday and Saturday. The shop is closed on Sundays.

EXPANDING

Steller Hair Co.

After more than three years, Northeast Minneapolis-based salon Steller Hair Co. is relocating to a larger space, but it’s not moving far.

Owner Katie Steller recently announced plans to move the salon, which she expects will go from a 1,200-square-foot space on the second floor of The Broadway building at Central & Broadway to a roughly 3,500-square-foot space on the first floor around the corner.

Steller is looking to fundraise up to $20,000 for the move, which she said would involve an extensive buildout compared to the salon’s current home. Right now the salon has seven chairs and 11 stylists — more than its original five chairs and five stylists — but it will have room to grow to 20 chairs in the new space.

Additional stylists will help Steller Hair keep up with the more than 300 new clients it had in October alone, she added.

“We’re definitely going to aim for what we want, versus just being functional,” Steller said.

The business looked to crowdsourcing when it opened, raising $15,000 to get the

salon off the ground, Steller said. The current Indiegogo campaign, which started in early November and will run for about a month, features rewards like Steller-branded apparel, makeovers and free haircuts for a year.

“We support the community, and they support us,” she said.

Steller said they were one of the first tenants in the building, also known as the former home of the Land O’ Nod Mattress Co. factory, before it welcomed Spyhouse Coffee Roasters, Buzzfeed and Hazel & Rose, among others. The salon’s new space was last home to Lewk, a men’s apparel subscription box service that seems to have quietly closed earlier this year. Several calls to the company were unanswered.

Steller said she hopes to sign a lease by December and open in the new space in January or February next year. The salon will have the same address at 945 Broadway St. NE in the Northeast Park neighborhood and may have expanded hours once it reopens.

Penny’s Coffee has quietly opened in the lobby of the newly renovated Washington Square building in downtown Minneapolis.

The high-end café from partners Ben Hertz and Dean Phillips serves Spyhouse and La Colombe coffee, teas via a partnership with San Francisco-based Samovar and pastries from Linden Hills-based Rose Street Patisserie.

The 38-seat coffee shop also offers yogurt, macarons and crepes, from the sweet — with

banana and Nutella— to the savory — covered in roasted shiitake mushrooms.

Penny’s Coffee is located at 100 Washington Ave. S. Owner Shorenstein Properties recently renovated the 22-story 100 Washington building, which houses offices from large tech companies Code42 and JAMF Software.

Penny’s is already planning a second location at 3509 W. 44th St. in the Linden Hills neighborhood of Southwest Minneapolis.

CIVIC BEAT

By Dylan Thomas dthomas@journalmpls.com @dthomasjournals

Body cameras in use in all five police precincts The officers who respond to 911 calls are now outfitted with body cameras in all five of the city’s precincts, Minneapolis Police Department Chief Janée Harteau announced Nov. 2.

Harteau said nearly 550 body cameras have been assigned, and the department conducted 1,100 hours of training in 90 separate sessions for the officers who wear them. The citywide rollout of body cameras began in the downtown First Precinct in July and was completed at the end of October.

She said body cameras were “critical” to achieving transparency.

“It’s another set of eyes,” Harteau said. “It’s also important in accountability, both for the officers (and) also the people they come into contact with.”

Mayor Betsy Hodges described the body camera rollout as a “big success” for both the city and its police department.

“These are challenging times across the country for police departments and the communities they serve, particularly communities of color,” Hodges said. “While not the only tool, body cams are an important tool for improving police-community relationships.”

The body cameras were purchased from Taser International through a five-year, $4-million contract approved in February by the City Council. The city also received $600,000 from the U.S. Department of Justice to launch the program.

Thirty-six Minneapolis officers wore body cameras during a 2015 pilot project.

Harteau said the department already had

A full rollout of police body cameras took a little less than four months. Submitted image

amassed an archive of 55,000 videos shot by police body cameras totaling more than 6,500 hours. The average length of the videos was 7 minutes, she said.

Officer Justin Churchill, who joined Harteau and Hodges at the Nov. 2 event announcing the completion of the rollout, said, like many of the force’s veteran officers, he was “a little reluctant” to wear a body camera at first. But Churchill said he became more comfortable with the technology when he discovered how easy it was to use and how it could help with the gathering of evidence, especially on “high-stress calls.”

“Sometimes you miss an answer. Sometimes

you miss a detail,” he said. “The great thing about these (body cameras) is we can go back and actually review that and see what details we missed. And then that way we can include it in our report, and it may be very beneficial to prosecution or towards someone’s innocence, so it can work a couple of different ways.”

The department’s body camera policy requires officers to activate the cameras in a variety of situations, as long as it’s safe to do so. Those situations include traffic stops, searches, “any contact that is, or becomes adversarial” and when they are advising a person of their Miranda rights.

Officers are encouraged but not required to inform members of the public when they are being recorded, unless asked.

Depending on what has been recorded, department policy mandates that the video is retained for up to seven years — or longer, in the case of a “significant” event, such as a felony or an incident of alleged police misconduct.

City Attorney Susan Segal said the cameras were expected to produce evidence that could be used to prosecute criminal cases more effectively.

“We in fact have already had our first domestic violence jury trial where we were able to present body cam video, so we were able to show the jury the victim — in real time, as officers responded to the call — describing her injuries and describing what happened,” Segal said.

Segal anticipated the cameras would be particularly useful in assault and drunken-driving cases, too.

New partnership could save the Skyway Senior Center The Skyway Senior Center and Ecumen are exploring a partnership that could rescue the center from a funding pinch that threatened to close its doors before the end of the year.

Ecumen, a senior housing and services provider based in Shoreview, has expressed interest in taking over operation of the center from the Minneapolis Health Department. In November, the City Council voted to approve a 120-day exclusive dealing period for Ecumen to negotiate the terms of a handoff.

Sara Goodnough, the center’s coordinator, said there remained “more unknowns than knowns” following the Council vote. But Goodnough said the potential partnership with Ecumen was “definitely a really great option to secure the future of the center.”

“We literally spent the last year meeting with potential sponsors and trying to secure the financial future of the center, and this came along at the perfect time,” she said.

The City Council also approved a $60,000 donation from the non-profit Friends of the Skyway Senior Center to keep the center open

after it lost its most recent sponsor, Augustana Care, in June. Previously, UCare sponsored the center from 2010 until 2015, when the health maintenance organization ended the arrangement amid a series of cuts and layoffs following the loss of state contracts that made up the bulk of its business.

The 2,000-square-foot center, located in the downtown skyway above LaSalle Avenue between 9th and 10th streets, provides a space for seniors to relax, socialize and participate in group activities. It opened in 2001 and now serves an estimated 74 visitors a day.

Goodnough said the center operates on an annual budget of approximately $186,000 and serves a wide range of Minneapolis residents age 50 and older, “everyone from people who are homeless to wealthy homeowners and condo-dwellers.”

“So, it’s a really economically and racially diverse population who utilizes our center,” she said.

She said the center’s mission has evolved over the years into reducing social isolation. Nearly

Ecumen, one of the largest non-profit organizations serving seniors in the state, offers services to older adults in over 30 locations. Its mission is to keep seniors active, engaged and healthy, spokesman Ben Taylor said.

Taylor said the center “serves an important role in the community” and that Ecumen would seek to first “stabilize” the center and then expand its work beyond the skyway.

Historic win for Ilhan Omar on Election Day Minneapolis’ DFL incumbents retained their seats in a year of record absentee voting

By Dylan Thomas & Nate Gotlieb Election Day in Minneapolis produced Minnesota’s — and the nation’s — first SomaliAmerican legislator.

Unofficial returns showed DFLer Ilhan Omar won 15,860 votes (80 percent) to take House District 60B, the longtime seat of Phyllis Kahn, who Omar bested in a primary.

Republican challenger Abdimalik Askar finished with 3,820 votes (19 percent).

‘Tonight, we are celebrating this win, our win. But our work won’t stop,” Omar said in a statement released by her campaign after polls closed on Election Day. “We will continue to build a more prosperous and equitable district — state, and nation — where each and every one of us has opportunities to thrive and move forward together.”

Diane Loeffler (DFL) was re-elected in Northeast Minneapolis’ District 60A with 15,587 votes (74 percent), overcoming a spirited challenge from an independent candidate, musician Gabe Barnett, who won 5,423 votes (26 percent).

As expected, incumbent DFLers prevailed in other races across Minneapolis by wide margins.

Karen Clark will return to her District 62A seat after winning 12,657 votes (88 percent) over Republican Claire Leiter’s 1,600 votes (11 percent). In neighboring District 62B, Susan Allen, who was running unopposed, took 16,759 votes (98 percent).

In Southwest, incumbent DFLer Frank Hornstein will return for an eighth term in District 61A with 21,656 votes (79 percent) to Republican Brian Rosenblatt’s 5,615 votes (21 percent). House Minority Leader Paul Thissen, who represents District 61B, won with 19,424 votes (80 percent), compared to Republican Tom Gallagher’s 4,672 votes (19 percent).

Voters returned DFL state senators Scott Dibble, Kari Dziedzic and Jeff Hayden to office, as well.

Dibble won 42,173 votes (81 percent) in District 61, where Republican Bob “Again” Carney Jr. won 9,729 votes (19 percent).

Dziedzic took 31,542 votes (78 percent) in District 60, defeating Legal Marijuana Now candidate Martin J. Super, who won 8,861

votes (22 percent). And in District 62, Hayden received 29,564 votes (88 percent) for a win over Republican challenger Bruce Lundeen, who took 3,897 votes (12 percent).

Hennepin County voters returned Rep. Keith Ellison to Washington, D.C., for another term representing District 5. Ellison defeated Republican Frank Drake 234,234–71,407 (70 percent to 21 percent). The Legal Marijuana Now party’s Dennis Schuller finished third with 27,815 votes (8 percent).

The county’s voters preferred the Democratic presidential ticket of Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine over their GOP challengers and the eventual victors, Donald Trump and Mike Pence, by a better than 2-to-1 margin.

Unofficial election totals show Clinton took 429,274 votes (63 percent) to Trump’s 191,767 votes (28 percent).

Minneapolis went even more lopsidedly for Clinton, giving the Democratic ticket nearly four out of five votes cast in the presidential race.

DFL-endorsed candidates sweep School Board DFL-endorsed candidates swept the four open Minneapolis Board of Education seats on Election Day, unseating two incum-

bents and thwarting a bid by a longtime parent-activist on the north side. Voters also renewed Minneapolis Public Schools’ expiring referendum on a vote of 165,912– 32,948 (83 percent to 17 percent).

In unofficial returns, Ira Jourdain received 15,242 votes (51 percent) to unseat Southwest Minneapolis’ District 6 incumbent Tracine Asberry, who finished with 14,657 votes (49 percent). In District 4, which includes downtown and portions of the city’s west side, Bob Walser defeated incumbent Josh Reimnitz 14,222–13,029 (52 percent to 47 percent).

Kim Ellison, who currently represents District 2, took 127,629 votes (80 percent) to win an open at-large seat over challenger Doug Mann, who finished with 31,280 votes (19 percent). In North Minneapolis’ District 2, Kerry Jo Felder narrowly defeated Kimberly Caprini 10,636–10,435 (50 percent to 49 percent).

Record absentee voting In the first presidential election since state law changed to allow for no-excuses absentee voting, a record number of Hennepin County voters cast their ballots in the days and weeks leading up to Election Day. “The percentage casting absentee ballots was huge,” Hennepin County Elections Manager Ginny Gelms said, adding that it appeared more than 200,000 people voted absentee this year. The previous record, set in 2008, was 82,000.

Minneapolis voters turned in 57,474 absentee ballots, according to the city’s unofficial tally. About 60 percent of absentee voters (34,657) cast their ballots at one of the city’s four Early Voting Centers.

The most popular turned out to be the South Early Voting Center in the former Roof Depot building on East 28th Street, which processed ballots from 13,426 voters. Voters who showed up there may have spent more time in line than they would have at their polling places on Election Day, Gelms said.

“Minneapolis had some locations where (waits) were up to three hours. I heard that

from Bloomington, too,” she said, adding that the record-setting absentee turnout meant “a little bit less pressure at the polls on Election Day.” Coworkers Ashley Alitz and Connor Duffey, a 25-year-old first-time voter, decided to join the line to enter the Downtown Early Voting Center just before 5 p.m. on Nov. 7, even though at that point the wait to vote was more than an hour long. The line exited the building, went down the block and wrapped around the corner.

“I thought it would be quicker than voting tomorrow,” Alitz said, but eyeing the line she decided maybe she’d been wrong.

She and Duffey weren’t going anywhere, though.

“We got the parking ramp,” she said.

“We’re here.”

‘Literally a part of history’ Voters at the Bakken Museum in West Calhoun had one uniform reaction after voting Nov. 8: Thank goodness it’s almost over.

“How about some positivity instead of all the damn negativity,” voter Tom Jones quipped.

Jones was part of what appeared to be a sizable contingent of West Calhoun residents who voted for Hillary Clinton for president.

He said “it wasn’t even a choice” in voting for Clinton over Donald Trump.

“That’s not the kind of person I’d want to have be the leader of the most powerful country in the world,” he said.

Voter Becky Saltzman quoted a line from the musical “Hamilton” in explaining her emotions after casting her ballot for Clinton: “And when our children tell our story, they’ll tell the story of tonight.”

“I’m literally a part of history right now,” she said.

Voter Nate Bird said he would enjoy that his Facebook friends will no longer be filling his feed with political sniping.

“This year it seemed like more voting against people than voting for people,” Bird said.

8 journalmpls.com / November 17–30, 2016 Minneapolis-based developer KrausAnderson has proposed a 165room luxury hotel called The Elliot for a site at 5th & 9th in the Elliot Park neighborhood.

Submitted image

FROM HOTELS / PAGE 1 opers are looking at occupancy (the rule of thumb is usually about 70 percent), revenue per available room (Minneapolis has been relatively high, he said) and demand generators (things like stadiums and companies moving downtown).

While international events may draw tens of thousands to the Twin Cities, Foerster said, they don’t keep hotels open.

What a group like Meet Minneapolis can do is leverage the public relations and prestige of high-profile events to get even more visitors and leisure travel.

“When you get a Super Bowl and a Final Four, these naturally come with international media, PR and exposure that’s going to touch people that quite honestly with all the marketing dollars in the world we couldn’t touch,” he said. “But they are only a week out of the year. We have 51 other weeks in the year to sell too.”

Meet Minneapolis, which markets the Minneapolis Convention Center, has many more mid-level and small events going on throughout the year that keep hotels booked. Next year, for example, the city will host the ESPN X Games, estimated to draw nearly 36,000 people, and USA Volleyball’s 2017 Girls’ Junior National Championships, expected to bring in nearly 50,000 people. Then there are even

I’m all for party planning, but you also have to clean up in the morning when the party is finished.

less high-profile events, like the national convention of the American Choral Directors Association, estimated to bring in 6,500 attendees, and an annual conference of the American Homebrewers Association with 5,000 expected guests.

Many new hotels are including meeting and short-term convention spaces for guests. Embassy Suites by Hilton has about 12,600 square feet of meeting space. The Hewing offers the small Andrews Ballroom for up to 250 people.

These new brands coming to downtown Minneapolis are also small and more diverse. Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group has opened the country’s first Radisson Red hotel a couple blocks from U.S. Bank Stadium. The five-story hotel is designed

to attract young and the young-at-heart by breaking down the regular hotel experience. There’s a food truck-inspired restaurant, bean bag chairs in the lobby lounge and an app so guests can check in or order room service from their phones.

On the other side of downtown, the Hewing is taking a food-forward approach by attracting guests with chef-driven restaurant Tullibee. The restaurant, led by Food & Wine magazine’s 2015 Best New Chef Grae Nonas, is now open.

“There’s not a monolithic product that’s being offered. There is a lot of diversity that will continue to appeal to a lot of different travellers and visitors who have their own preferences about the hotel experience they want to have in Minneap-

olis,” said Steve Cramer, president and CEO of the Minneapolis Downtown Council and Downtown Improvement District.

Several more hotels are on the drawing board, including the 165-room Elliot in Elliot Park, a 153-room Marriott Moxy and a 182-room Canopy by Hilton in Downtown East, and a new 120-room hotel concept from furniture retailer West Elm in the North Loop.

And the city is preparing for it. Meet Minneapolis is in the process of developing a Tourism Master Plan, which it expects to release at an annual meeting next March, a spokeswoman said. Cramer said the plan will identify goals to maintain and build the local tourism and hospitality industries.

Hotel developer Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group isn’t shy about the fact that its new brand is for young travellers — or at least those with an “ageless millennial mindset.”

There’s no front desk or general manager. Instead, there’s a check-in app, “creatives” and a “curator” to tend to your needs and even a digital wall where guests can find the city’s hippest restaurants and take a selfie.

609 3rd St. S. Rooms: 164 Amenities: RED app for check-in and room service, OUIBar + KITCHN, 1,000 square feet of event space, fitness center, skyway connection

The Plymouth Building has returned to life with a $110-million Embassy Suites by Hilton hotel. The 12-story, skyway-connected hotel has 220 two-room suites and 70 one-room suites and is the first Embassy Suites

by Hilton property in downtown Minneapolis. Guests can take advantage of a free two-hour reception in the evening and can enjoy a made-to-order breakfast overlooking the adjacent Bob Dylan mural.

The Hewing is also bringing rooftop dining to the North Loop with a bar, sauna and pool for guests, members and the public.

DFLer Ilhan Omar became the first Somali-American state lawmaker in the country on Election Day. Submitted image FROM POLITICAL / PAGE 1 Macalester College student Dan Klonowski showed up to the rally with a rainbow flag, a longtime symbol of the LGBT community, draped over his shoulders. Klonowski said he had little to fear personally as a white, heterosexual male, but said some of his friends “were very scared of what was to come.”

“What I object to is the rhetoric of hate I feel the winning campaign was run on,” he said. Klonowski held a handwritten sign that read “Hate stops with me” as he waited for the protestors to set off from their gathering place, a plaza outside of the University of Minnesota’s Humphrey School of Public Affairs.

Asked Nov. 9 what the Republican victories at the state and federal level meant for Minneapolis, political science professor Larry Jacobs, the school’s current Walter F. Mondale Chair for Political Studies, put it this way: “Not good. Not good on a bunch of fronts.”

At the state level, Jacobs predicted “a return to something along the lines of the fiscal and regulatory policies under (former GOP Gov.) Tim Pawlenty.” With the departure of President Barack Obama from the White House, he continued, Minneapolis is losing someone who used “the bully pulpit of the presidency to encourage Minneapolis.”

“This is going to be a very different political, policy and rhetorical environment,” Jacobs predicted.

Policy roadblocks

Jacobs said the GOP takeover of the state legislature could impact a number of city priorities, from transportation to the city’s Working Families Agenda. DFL state Rep. Frank Hornstein, re-elected to a ninth term on Nov. 8, agreed.

“They are going to pass a very extreme agenda, whether it’s on LGBTQ issues or prochoice, the environment, deep cuts to the safety net, deep cuts to public education — all of these things will happen as they have happened in the past, and the governor is just going to have to stand strong as he has done and stop this,” Hornstein predicted.

Democrats still control the governor’s mansion, and Hornstein described Gov. Mark Dayton as the “bulwark” standing against the Republican agenda.

“I just see more gridlock and not a lot getting accomplished,” he said.

Jacobs noted counties and cities experienced “pretty significant cuts” to Local Government Aid during the Pawlenty administration.

“I think that’s a pretty good measure of the kind of budgets Minneapolis should be bracing for at this point,” he said.

Jacobs said Republicans could pass legislation to preempt parts of the Working Families Agenda, including a new paid sick and safe time ordinance and a proposal to raise the city’s minimum wage to $15, which is still being debated.

Republicans were dead-set against state funding of the Southwest Light Rail Transit project, forcing the Met Council, the Counties Transit Improvement Board and Hennepin County in September to pony up additional funds for the $1.86-billion transit project, the largest in state history. The federal government is expected to cover half of the total cost, but that decision will be made next summer during a Trump administration.

Project spokesperson Laura Baenen said she couldn’t comment on how politics might affect SWLRT’s fortunes.

“The project is moving forward,” Baenen said. “We’re considered a strong project.”

Community concerns As election returns were coming in across the country, Alberto Monserrate began a 7 p.m.–1 a.m. shift on local Spanishlanguage radio station AM 1470. On the air and off, Monserrate heard people from the local Latino and immigrant communities expressing the same mix of emotions in response to Trump’s surprising win: shock, disbelief and fear.

“Many people in our conversation have to prepare for immigration going after our young people that are legally now working in our country,” he said, referring to those who benefitted from Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), President Obama’s 2012 executive action that granted relief to some undocumented immigrants who arrived in the U.S. as children. “Some people have to decide whether they’re going to leave the country or not, depending on how Trump continues to act.”

He said Trump’s inflammatory campaign rhetoric — questioning whether a U.S.-born federal judge could rule fairly on a case involving Trump University because of his Mexican heritage, for instance —seemed to embolden racist behavior. Monserrate, the

The Trump administration will decide on a full-funding grant agreement for Southwest Light Rail transit. File photo CEO of public relations firm NewPublica and a former Minneapolis school board member, said he and his wife for the first time had second thoughts about speaking Spanish in public on an upcoming vacation.

“There’s a lot of things that have happened to many people I know in the past year that have never happened before. A lot of people being told to go back to Mexico. Some racist, violent acts,” he said. “That’s stuff that used to happen once in a while.”

Just two days before Election Day, during a campaign stop in Rochester, thencandidate Trump suggested the state had “suffered” from taking in Somali refugees.

Incoming District 60B Rep. Ilhan Omar, who on Election Day became the first SomaliAmerican elected to a state legislature in the country, said Trump’s campaign rhetoric — including a pledge to shut down immigration for Muslims — was “scary” for many in her community.

Omar said her response would be to lead with love and compassion.

“I know people want to hide and be afraid, but we need to focus on what it means for us to be bold,” she said.

Monserrate said immigrant communities were resilient and “might be better equipped to deal with a lot of this stuff than other communities, just because we’ve survived a lot of stuff.”

“It’s kind of like: Life is tough, here we go again,” he said.

Date Night for (food) lovers

By Carla Waldemar Welcome to Date Night at Café Lurcat.

I was all set to let you in on a well-kept secret, but, elbowing our way through the crowd on a recent Sunday evening, it’s clear that somebody already blabbed. For the remaining few as innocent as I, here’s the deal: a three-course dinner of multiple choices for $50 a couple every Sunday evening, plus — plus! — half off on bottles of wine, like the lovely petite sirah we sipped as we let our eyes wander over the smart setting.

The vista segues from pretty Loring Park across a room of understated chic to the open kitchen, with a newly promoted head chef and new menu in place. Sunday evenings, it’s an opportunity for puttin’ on the Ritz at Motel 6 prices.

And yes, the food’s as fine as the friendly, attitude-free service. From among the trio of starters, we shared a plate of beef carpaccio — sweet as all get-out, boasting a boutonniere of shaved cremini mushrooms in a lust-inducing perfume of truffle oil. Next, Lurcat’s signature salad: twigs of sweet-tart apple and savory cheese bundled upright under a dusting of chives. (Or choose pear and goat cheese on endive and micro-greens.)

Habit-forming.

CAFÉ LURCAT 1925 Harmon Place 612-486-5500 www.cafelurcat.com

Next, a generous, ruddy square of salmon, moist as when it came out of the water, given a sweet-hot punch of Korean flavors and partnered with nicely chewy black rice and a lively ginger/scallion mince.

Then, what else to choose? Hanger steak?

Pork tenderloin with fig and blue cheese?

Next time.

Tonight, the chicken of which our server boasted, and rightly so: fried as God meant it to be, with a crunchy crust that conceals ultra-moist white meat within. It’s paired with chicken gravy (natch; I think there’s a law) and a buttermilk biscuit (another wise edict) — firmer, heftier than maybe your Southern granny (were you so lucky) would endorse, but satisfying.

Finally, a quartet of dessert options, including Lurcat’s legendary cinnamonsugared doughnuts. I’ve enjoyed them way too often for my doctor’s comfort, so this time, on to an autumn version of a Pavlova, whose crunchy meringue base supports hard cider/caramel apple slices and crème fraîche cheesecake scattered with seasalted peanuts. Seriously good. So was the milk chocolate fudge bar, smooth as velvet, dressed in a rich cherry mousseline and cocoa crumbs.

Should you dine here on other evenings, you’ll find the new menu divided into categories: Traditional (those don’t-you-dareremove-them items like the apple-cheese salad); Market (changing twice a year to reflect the season); and Voyage, a changing journey into another region of the country, such as the current spotlight on the Low Country cooking of South Carolina and that delectable fried chicken.

The Aliveness Project provides its HIV-positive members with life-improving resources

A community resource for people living with HIV/AIDS

By the numbers

When he walked through the Aliveness Project’s doors on Dec. 10, 2015, Bobby had finally come to terms with the fact that he needed help.

After experiencing a health-related incident resulting from his HIV-positive status, Bobby turned to the Aliveness Project (which does not identify its members by last name for privacy reasons). The nonprofit provided him with counseling with its on-staff nutritionist, a meal plan and integrative therapies.

“It’s hard for me to say ‘yes’ and ‘please’ because of my pride,” he said. “But I got to the point where I needed to humble myself.”

The Aliveness Project was founded in 1985 as a grassroots community resource in Minneapolis dedicated to supporting those living with HIV and AIDS. Over the years, it developed a set of services and programs to address the unique challenges of its members — such as nutrition, mental health, substance abuse, poverty and homelessness — by offering nutritious meals, meal planning, a food shelf, integrative therapy, HIV testing and counseling, case management, a holiday gift program and a community center.

After reaching its capital campaign goal of $3 million in 2014, the center moved out of its old, cramped, windowless Location space into its new headquarters, a sunny, 30,000-square-foot space at 38th & Nicollet in Southwest Minneapolis. It holds a 808 Nicollet Ave., cafeteria, a commercial kitchen, private space for counseling and integrative therapy, a communal area for members, a food Minneapolis shelf and office space for its staff.

‘A community center that happens to also be an AIDS service organization.’

Contact 612-824-5433

The Aliveness Project’s dedication to community remains integral to its mission.

“It began literally around a kitchen table,” Executive Director Amy Moser said. “People were seeing their best friends Website wasting away from AIDS and being isolated from their families, so a group of folks started gathering together to make sure aliveness.org they had enough food to eat.

“That’s still at the root of what we do — it’s a community center that happens to also be an AIDS service organization.”

Year Founded To serve its 1,700 active members, the Aliveness Project’s staff (the equivalent of 21 full-time employees) is supplemented 1985 by a dedicated team of 1,300 volunteers — many of who are also members — who together put in nearly 550 hours per week.

“It’s a place of community,” Bobby agreed. “There are other places that offer services where a lot of people don’t feel welcome. Here, you walk in and the receptionist knows your name. They meet you where you’re at.”

Bobby now volunteers at the center’s food shelf and as an ambassador for the organization’s annual Dining Out for Life fundraiser.

“It helps to give back to the community,” he said.

Jeff Goetz, a recent retiree, has been a volunteer for the Aliveness Project since January. Goetz, who volunteered when living in New York City in the 1980s during the height of the AIDS epidemic, decided he wanted to spend his newfound free time giving back to his community. At the Aliveness Project, you can find him doing everything from manning the front desk to repainting walls.

“I find that these people are frequently marginalized and need a great deal of help, so I want to do whatever I can,” he said.

‘Building community and coming together’

Dining Out for Life, the Aliveness Project’s signature fundraiser, is a national initiative to raise money for regional HIV and AIDS organizations. During the last Thursday of April, more than 200 partnering restaurants in Minnesota donate a portion of proceeds from dining sales from the evening to the organization. The Aliveness Project boasts the country’s second most-successful Dining Out for Life campaign, netting more than $270,000 in a day in 2015 — a fifth of its annual budget “I think the Twin Cities really responds to our mission of building community and coming together,” said Moser.

What you can do Donate through a fiscal gift, car donation, goods and services (including food shelf items) or during Give to the Max Day on Nov. 17.

Participate in Dining Out for Life by dining at a participating restaurant, which donates a portion of proceeds to the Aliveness Project.

Volunteer as a front desk receptionist, food shelf worker, kitchen assistant or office assistant at the center, or as a Dining Out for Life ambassador.

The Hewing also features a fitness room and event spaces like the 3,000-square-foot Andrews Ballroom and the 870-square-foot Commissioner Boardroom. Its restaurant, the Nordic-focused Tullibee, officially opened to diners on Thursday, Nov. 17.

The Encore The first residents of The Encore, a new luxury apartment building in the Mill District, will begin moving in Dec. 1, according to a spokeswoman with Minneapolis-based Sherman Associates. The Encore features 123 units, from three-bedroom penthouse apartments to multilevel townhomes with private entrances. It also has a 12-story rooftop terrace with a gourmet catering kitchen, a second-floor clubroom with a bar, and a large fitness center. The project is the developer’s final piece on the block after the Aloft Hotel and Zenith Condominiums.

419 WASHINGTON AVE. N. SWERVO DEVELOPMENT, CPM COS.

419 Washington The City Council sent developers CPM Cos. and Swervo Development back to the drawing board when council members voted Nov. 4 to support an appeal regarding a 10-story office building they proposed for the North Loop. Jerrit Bromley appealed the Heritage Preservation Commission’s decision approving a certificate of appropriateness for the proposal based on concerns with traffic, its height and a skyway connection. Original plans called for nearly 200,000 square feet of office space, about 10,000 square feet of retail and/or restaurant space along 5th Avenue North and a skyway connection to a neighboring four-story building.

The City Council has approved a supportive housing expansion of YouthLink for a preliminary reservation of Federal Low Income Housing Tax Credit totaling nearly $100,000. Through a partnership with Project for Pride in Living, the downtown homeless youth center is looking to build a five-story, 46-bed supportive housing addition to its facility near the Loring Park neighborhood. The expansion would provide housing and support services for homeless youth between ages 18 and 23.

Residents would have access to support services through YouthLink and a Career Pathways center.

12-18 W. 15TH ST. CPM COS.

18 W. 15th Updated plans from CPM Cos. for a 75-unit apartment building in Loring Park passed through a Nov. 1 meeting of the City Planning Commission. The Minneapolisbased developer has proposed a six-story building with 34 enclosed parking spaces for cars to replace a surface parking lot near the Minneapolis Convention Center.

The building would feature 100 bicycle parking spaces and a rooftop amenity deck. DJR Architecture is handling the project’s design. CPM manages The Parkway Apartments building across the street at LaSalle & 15th. The developer told The Journal in August when plans first surfaced that construction could begin by the end of the year.

813 N. 5TH ST. BEACON INTERFAITH HOUSING COLLABORATIVE

Great River Landing St. Paul-based Beacon Interfaith Housing Collaborative recently announced it has secured full capital funding, or $14.1 million, for a new 72-unit supportive housing development for adults who have experienced incarceration, homelessness and unemployment. The project, named Great River Landing, is proposed for a mostly vacant lot in the North Loop not far from the Target Field transit station. Great River Landing would provide efficiency housing for 72 adults — primarily AfricanAmerican men — offices for staff from service provider Better Futures Minnesota and shared kitchens, bathrooms and common space, according to a press release. Partners Plymouth Congregational Church and Westminster Presbyterian Church are also supporting the project.

The developer estimates construction will begin in late 2017.

Upper Harbor Terminal* United Properties of Bloomington and Fridley-based Thor Construction have publically shared a proposal to overhaul a nearly 50-acre riverfront site in North Minneapolis with an amphitheater, housing and office space, among other uses. The project, a response to a request for qualifications from the City of Minneapolis and Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board, features up to 1,000 units of housing, 150,000 square feet of office space, 70,000 square feet of retail space and 180,000 square feet of manufacturing space. It would also feature 18 acres of parkland and an amphitheater for 8,000 to 10,000 people programmed by First Avenue Productions.

12TH STREET SOUTH CITY OF MINNEAPOLIS

12th Street Transit Ramp The City Council hopes to correct one of the worst congestion pinch points in the Twin Cities with a new transit ramp for the proposed Orange Line Bus Rapid Transit system linking Burnsville and Minneapolis. Council members recently approved the final layout for a new transit ramp connecting Interstate 35W to transit lanes on 2nd and Marquette avenues in downtown Minneapolis. The ramp will serve Orange Line buses and all I-35W express bus routes, an estimated 700 trips daily. Construction on the line is expected to start in 2017.

THANKSGIVING In department stores across the country November’s biggest holiday is overlooked thanks to being sandwiched between Halloween and the winter holiday season. While some people have already written it off, there’s a lot going on — from charitable bike races to calorie-busting dance nights — to give Thanksgiving the respect it deserves.

Beer Run with Dangerous Man

Cranksgiving

Transmission Thanksgiving Eve

Sometimes the best way to prepare for the biggest meal of the year is to get a little exercise. Northeast Minneapolis-based brewery Dangerous Man Brewing Co. is hosting a “pre-turkey trot” beer run as part of the Brewery Running Series, a collection of races pairing athleticism and alcohol. This 5K fun run isn’t exactly for competitive runners — there are no timers or medals, just free beer and swag. Plus, you can get your giving on because all proceeds go to Minnesota nonprofits.

Cranksgiving is a Minneapolis-style food drive. Part bike ride, part food drive and part scavenger hunt, the free event has cyclists racing to grocery stores to buy food to donate for families to eat during the week of Thanksgiving.

The race, which is now held in dozens of cities across the country, will benefit Joyce Uptown Food Shelf this year.

For riders, there will be awards and a post-race after party at Sunrise Cyclery. Registration begins at 2 p.m. and the ride kicks off at 3 p.m.

If races aren’t your thing, maybe dancing is.

Transmission will help you burn a few extra calories with its annual Thanksgiving Eve party at Mill City Nights. The event, which will feature DJ Jake Rudh’s usual eclectic sets of music from the ’60s to today, will be one of the last music nights at the venue, which is shutting its doors before the end of the year. If you’re already stressed out with holidays, get ready to dance — and leave your in-laws at home.

The Passage or What Comes of Searching in the Dark

Avant Garden One of the biggest art events in the Twin Cities is bringing together the city’s premier art auction, gourmet treats and even a member of A Tribe Called Quest. The Walker Art Center’s annual benefit, Avant Garden, will see the unveiling of new commissions from artists Frank Big Bear, Philippe Parreno, and Aaron Spangler, and a night of music and dancing with DJ Ali Shaheed Muhammad of the recent “Saturday Night Live” guests. Plus, the museum really knows how to make an entrance, unveiling its brand new lobby area on top of the new “Question the Wall Itself” exhibition. For true art lovers, the Walker will auction off works from artists like Tauba Auerbach, Carroll Dunham, Katharina Fritsch and more.

Local theater company 7th House Theater is bringing its next original musical to the Guthrie Theater’s Dowling Studio as part of its Level Nine Series. “The Passage or What Comes of Searching in the Dark” follows two children on a real-life adventure stranger than anything they could have imagined. As part of the series, the show has just $9 tickets and will have a discussion component to address today’s most significant topics and questions.

If you’ve ever found yourself curious about that beer in your hand, the North Loop’s Modist Brewing Co. is giving a crash course into what goes into each glass. The brewery’s six-week beer education program, led by education specialist Paige (Latham) Didora, will feature guest speakers, an in-depth look at brewing equipment and don’t forget about beer samples.

Over six hour-long sessions, students, whether they be beer lovers or brew connoisseurs, will learn about the history of malting, where beer can go wrong and how to pair brews with food, among other topics. A $50 ticket gets you admission into all six courses, held each Monday between Nov. 21 and Jan. 2, 2017 at 7 p.m. at Modist. An hour before and after each class the taproom will have a social hour just for participants to do a little studying over a pint.

THE PURPLE ONE’S PALACE

Every day I walk past Prince’s gold-painted star on First Avenue. I wasn’t always a devoted fan of the legend himself, but as a local, I’ve always been fond of Prince because of his choice to live and work just outside the Twin Cities when most celebrities live in star-studded cities. Now, months after his passing, I still have a newspaper cover tacked on a wall in my home, a daily reminder that, as Prince once said, “A strong spirit transcends rules.”

The musician’s Paisley Park in Chanhassen, just 30 minutes outside Minneapolis, opened for public tours in November. Tickets are now available for general admission and VIP tours through March 31, 2017 at officialpaisleypark.com.

To me, the tours sound like a fascinating opportunity to scratch the surface of a figure who is both one of the state’s most famous faces — all of us have a friend with a Prince story — and one of its most mysterious. Guests get a peak inside his video editing suites and mixing studios where Prince was grooming protégées like Judith Hill (did you catch her when she was on “The Voice”?) and 3rdeyegirl (the trio that backed him and Lianne La Havas on “Saturday Night Live”). On Friday and Saturday evenings beginning in December the building will also have Paisley Park After Dark nights with dance parties inside Prince’s NPG Music Club. Partiers can check out Prince movies and never-before-seen performance footage of Prince each weekend.

If you walk past the star yourself and get the inkling, there are tours available on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and weekends all day.

Workin’ on our Night Moves

Night Moves has come a long way since 2012 when the Minneapolis group released their debut album, “Colored Emotions,” and were immediately decreed one of the city’s best new bands by both First Avenue and City Pages. Now the group has signed with London-based label Domino Record Co. (Animal Collective, Arctic Monkeys, Dirty Projectors) and, just earlier this year, released sophomore record “Pennied Days.”

The LP features writing from the band’s principle members, frontman John Pelant and bassist Micky Alfano, and production from John Agnello (Kurt Vile, Sonic Youth). “Pennied Days” follows tours with buzz-worthy musicians like Minnesota-born Poliça, London-based Django Django and fellow folk rocker Father John Misty — and the album shows a wide variety of such influences. Lead track “Carl Sagan” is bouncy and spacey, a striking contrast to its cinematic, even tense music video. Pelant’s emblematic voice, which moves from a raspy twang to a Bee Gees falsetto, goes its full range on the album with tracks like country-infused folk ballad “Kind Luck” and “Alabama,” a powerful, piano-backed classic rock song. For Night Moves fans, tracks like “Denise, Don’t Wanna See You Cry,” don’t stray far from the band’s well-known “Colored Emotions” song “Horses” with its driving, eclectic funk-rock sound.

Before kicking off a U.S. tour with Twin Cities’ own Haley Bonar, Night Moves will play First Avenue’s 7th St Entry on Wednesday, Nov. 23. After that, the band will get its first shows in the United Kingdom with a European tour across England, Germany and the Netherlands in January.

FALL IN LOVE WITH MAPLE SYRUP How and why to replace sugar with maple syrup this holiday season

A

s fall feasts and the holiday baking season quickly approach us, many are swapping out refined sugar for more natural alternatives such as maple syrup or honey.

Of course, it is best to use all sweeteners in moderation and center our meals around nutrient dense foods, but, that being said, we all need a little sweetness in our life! Sweetening up bitter greens and tough winter storage vegetables is a great way to enjoy eating local food all year long. Plus, cooking with unrefined sources of sugar, like maple syrup and honey, can have benefits for our health, the environment and local farmers.

Maple syrup is 66-percent sugar by weight, while refined cane or beet sugar is 100-percent sugar by weight. Gram-forgram, maple syrup contains less sugar than traditional refined sugar and may raise blood sugar more slowly than refined sugar. Still, maple syrup contains 50 calories and 12 grams of sugar per tablespoon, so be sure to use it in moderation.

In addition to having lower sugar content, maple syrup also contains vitamins and minerals, while refined sugar and most other sugars do not. One-quarter cup of maple

syrup provides 61 percent of the daily value for riboflavin, over 100 percent of the daily value for manganese and 8 percent of the daily value for calcium and zinc. It is also rich in polyphenols, which are beneficial, health-promoting chemicals naturally found in plants (like resveratrol in red wine or allyl sulfides found in garlic).

If all this was not enough, maple syrup can only be produced in the upper Midwest and northeastern United States and a few Canadian provinces, so why not support our delicious local delicacy?

One last important note: Cheap imitation maple syrup found at super markets is mostly corn syrup and food coloring and usually contains no maple syrup.

You can buy fresh, hand-harvested maple syrup at the Mill City Farmers Market from Horner’s Corner all winter long. Starting Nov. 12, the Mill City Farmers Market moved indoors for its winter markets inside the Mill City Museum.

The winter markets run 10 a.m.–1 p.m. on select Saturdays November through April.

Get the market dates and more seasonal recipes at www.millcityfarmersmarket.org.

Brussels Sprout Celeriac Slaw with Maple Glazed Pepitas Recipe by The Wedge Community Co-op Slaw Ingredients 1 cup Pepitas 1⁄2 Tablespoon Butter 3 Tablespoon Maple Syrup from Horner’s Corner 1 teaspoon Pepper 1⁄2 teaspoon Sea Salt 1lb Brussels Sprouts 3⁄4lb of Celeriac 1⁄2 lb Green Cabbage 1⁄2 lb Red Cabbage

Dressing Ingredients 1⁄2 cup Apple Cider Vinegar 2 Tablespoon Maple Syrup 2 teaspoon Whole Grain Mustard 1 teaspoon Lemon Juice 1⁄2 teaspoon Sea Salt 3⁄4 teaspoon Black Pepper 3⁄4 cup Canola oil

Directions ``Preheat oven to 350°F. Melt butter in a small saucepan. Add maple syrup, pepper and sea salt and heat until combined and bubbling. Mix the pumpkin seeds with the hot mixture. Spray a baking sheet with oil and spread mixture evenly across the greased sheet. Bake the seeds for about ten minutes. The seeds will darken slightly, and while they’re hot the syrup will appear to be wet but will harden as they cool. ``Wash produce well. Cut off ends of Brussels sprouts and peel off any discolored leaves. Slice in half and place the flat side down. Slice as thinly as possible. Quarter cabbages and peel off any undesirable leaves, then slice cabbage as thinly as possible (a mandolin works well to thinly shave the cabbage, but you can do it by hand if you do not own one). Peel celeriac and thinly julienne (cut into small, fine matchsticks). ``Toss Brussels sprouts, cabbages and celeriac together in a medium bowl.

Next whisk apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, mustard, lemon juice, sea salt and pepper in a bowl. Slowly drizzle in the canola oil while whisking constantly to form the dressing. You can also use a mason jar with a tight fitting lid to emulsify the dressing by combining all ingredients and shaking. ``Pour dressing over slaw and mix well. Top slaw with pepitas. Enjoy!
