MB Foodhouse Is Opening A Food Truck in Northeast, Closing at North Loop Galley - Eater Twin Cities

"MB Foodhouse, the Tex-Mex and taco restaurant by chef Kristen Martinez — leader of noise rap group Moodie Black — announced on Instagram last month it was closing its North Loop Galley location for good. But the bigger picture is much brighter: Next month, Martinez plans to debut MB Foodhouse as a food truck stationed at Five Watt Coffee and HeadFlyer Brewing in Northeast Minneapolis. MB Foodhouse, which is trans woman-owned, has never been a traditional restaurant. Martinez identifies more as a musician than a chef — she started down her culinary path in 2019, when she hosted Moodhouse Fest, an all-day noise festival, and catered it with a breakfast taco buffet. During the pandemic, she and bandmate Sean Lindahl ran MB Foodhouse as a pop-up out of their house, before setting up in Five Watt Coffee’s annex space on Lyndale Avenue. In 2021, they took a leap and relocated to the North Loop Galley." - Justine Jones
