HeavyTable.com is the Upper Midwest's source for food, from roots to table.
About HeavyTable.com
The Heavy Table is a Twin Cities-based magazine passionately telling the stories of food and drink — from roots to table — in the Upper Midwest.
We are interested in small, neighborhood restaurants; ethnic eateries with a story to tell; great home cooking; Upper Midwestern culinary traditions; stuff that’s hilarious; recipes that work; recipes that fail spectacularly; current events; local food; heirloom food; and people at all levels of the food creation, preparation, distribution and consumption chain.
The Heavy Table is for readers who enjoy good food. That might mean a $75 tab at La Belle Vie or a $5 porketta sandwich bought on the road to Hibbing. It might be a dandelion salad or a venison stew. It might be a new variety of Bisquick pancakes.
We read Saveur, and MFK Fisher, and The Art of Eating, and Brillat-Savarin. We also watch Andrew Zimmern and Anthony Bourdain and keep tabs on the local food blogs. We write to be understood, to be accurate, and to entertain.
The Heavy Table is a positive voice with integrity. We will call people out on lousy value and bad hospitality. But we prefer to celebrate the delicious, the creative, the honest, and the heartwarming.
We look forward to serving you.
