Quick Bites: From Catering and Carts to Café

Posted By on Wed, Nov 30, 2016 at 1:00 PM


You might’ve heard of—and hopefully tasted something made by—Tumerico, a local catering, food-cart and farmers-market business owned and run by Chef owner and chef Wendy Garcia (See this week’s Chow feature for more about eatery).

Now you can taste Garcia’s delicious, healthy dishes on a whim, without browsing markets, hunting down food carts or hosting a dinner party (yeah, like that wouldn’t be a hassle…). Just head over to East Sixth Street, where Tumerico has materialized as a brick-and-mortar café.

The venue, which opened Nov. 12, offers some prepackaged meals for those in a hurry, but it also has tables for sit-down diners who want their meals cooked from scratch. Tumerico will continue to focus on gluten-free, vegetarian and/or vegan options, also serving local coffee from Exo Roast Co., Yellow Brick Coffee, and Presta Coffee Roasters.
