Your guide to the end of the week is here! We're diving into that classic Minnesota "fake-out spring" where the weather can't make up its mind, but the city's energy is definitely shifting. We're breaking that cabin fever and getting ready to exist outside again, whether that means wandering through the Northeast Arts District, biking the Greenway, or just remembering what it's like to be around other humans.

We're exploring the incredible plant-based food scene, which is way more than just "salads and sadness." From must-visit spots for vegan comfort food like J. Selby's and Trio Plant-Based to game-changers like The Herbivorous Butcher, the options are endless. We also navigate the local cannabis scene, pointing you to top-rated dispensaries and THC beverage spots so you can skip the guesswork. If you want to dive deeper, we shout out our sponsors mplsvegan.com and mncannabishub.com as your go-to resources for maps, lists, and local deals.
