Swap the sauerkraut for Asian Slaw!
If you're a Farmer's Market regular, you may have seen or smelled the grilled meats from the Tollefson Family Farms stand. They've been a fan of Tammy's Asian Slaw and serve it with their sausages & hots dogs. 

Our slaw is juicy & tangy, with hints of spiced citrus zest and plenty of crunch. More carrot than cabbage, and similar to sauerkraut- only in that it is wet. Add to your entrées, green salad, or enjoy on its own. Comes in a 1-pint container. It's always available at the restaurant for take-out, Tammy may bring a few to the market- but a limited supply.

May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month
In an effort to learn more about America's past & present, including the opportunities and obstacles that challenge our Asian American and Pacific Islanders, we've collected links to fill you in on some chapters in our history.

Rounding out the last email of AAPI month, We are bringing back a little-known site called AllLookSame.com. What can you find there? 8 quizzes to test your knowledge on Asian Culture and Race. It's challenging and fun, everyone should try at least one quiz. We think you'd be good at the ones below.


My grandmother, who had never used a computer, aced the original test—Asian FACES. Can you?
There are several video documentaries available online to introduce you to the history-making Asians and Pacific Islanders that helped form what the United States is today. Explore the links below:

PBS Asian Americans "Asian Americans film series that delivers a bold, fresh perspective on a history that matters today, more than ever. As America becomes more diverse, and more divided, while facing unimaginable challenges, how do we move forward together?"

How do I love thee? Sweet, Spicy, Salty, Bitter, Sour.

  5 Senses + one Easy reads for this weekend: Books by author Diane Ackerman: A Na tural history of the senses , and  A Natural history of love. Whether you're watching a bitter battle on the big screen (football), snuggling with a sweetie or feeling salty about something this weekend,  we have collected some courses for exploring your 5 senses, and adding a savory course with the addition of  umami  to the list. When these books came out almost thirty years ago, I never imagined including them in marketing email for a small business restaurant, but here they are. Both are written in a format of short, digestible chapters covering specialized subjects, with history and science peppered throughout. They should make some good background noise if you're into listening to audio books; good stuff for tucking away for your next trivia game. Since the  Senses  book was written pre-umami, we have decided to include that on our list of senses, since it is one t...

  Celebrate Lunar New Year January 26th- February 6th:  The Lunar New Year Menu is now online for scheduled orders and same-day ordering. Don't miss out on your favorite Rainbow dishes, you can mix and match from both menus to round out your Lunar New Year meal. Look for the two buttons on the website to switch to each menu. You might notice many of the items are vegan, (meaning its made without animal products), a practice observed during the Lunar New Year. LUNAR NEW YEAR EVERYDAY MENU Schedule your pick-up time now.  Unlike last year's Lunar New Year offering  when we offered a prix fixe 4-course menu, this year's menu is a la carte. What this means is that our specialty items are being prepared alongside our everyday menu items, and might make the need for scheduling if say, you wanted to eat at 6pm. (Our busiest time) The earlier you order, the more options you have for scheduled pick-up times, just like reservations, the most popular times get booked. Right now...
