"I observed that the Loren, a Zilker neighborhood hotel, is hosting a month-long pop-up series in its café where restaurants and chefs take over for residencies; the series kicked off with New York City bakery Milk Bar in December 2023 and currently features Midnite Bagel. The hotel’s pop-up program also channels a portion of proceeds to its nonprofit, Loren Roots Imperative, which helps offset carbon footprints." - Nadia Chaudhury
