Eastmoreland Market will shutter permanently on Thursday, October 25th.
Southeast
SE Knapp: Patrick and Colleen Mendola's much-loved neighborhood cafe Eastmoreland Market & Kitchen will close on Thursday, October 25th after five years in business. The small cafe and mercantile tucked away in the Eastmoreland neighborhood charmed residents and visitors alike with made-to-order sandwiches, satisfying soups, perfect arancini, and well-stocked aisles of Italian and Spanish artisan foods. All remaining merchandise will be sold for 35% off from now until Thursday. 3616 SE Knapp
SE Division: Kate McMillen's second location of pie shop Lauretta Jean's is now open in the former Pix Patisserie space on Division and 34th, offering breakfast pastries, savory quiches, egg sandwiches on flaky house-made biscuits, espresso, and—naturally—plenty of sky-high pies by the slice. Stay tuned for photos of the sweet-as-pie interior, here on Eat Beat. 3402 SE Division Street
SE Division: Elizabeth Davis and Kelly Myers' Xico has launched a Taco Tuesdays special, offering three-taco plates (think sauteed greens and crema, chorizo with potatoes, steak tacos, and more) from $7 to $9 every Tuesday night. 3715 SE Division St
