Angel Food Bakery Leaves Downtown Minneapolis for St. Louis Park’s Texa Tonka - Eater Twin Cities

"Days could be limited for that Dixie’s fried chicken. The Southern-styled restaurant has been open in St. Paul since 1985, but the restaurant’s owner Peter Kenefick is working on an apartment building proposal that would end the eatery’s long tenure. Kenefick along with developer Reuter Walton have proposed tearing down the existing building that houses Dixie’s along with Emmett’s Public House and Saji-Ya to build a new four and a half story apartment building. Inside the new structure would be ground floor space for some retail/restaurants. As it stands, Emmett’s Public House, an Irish/Whisky-bar and Saji-Ya, a sushi restaurant would re-open inside the building. A virtual community meeting is scheduled on Zoom with Kenefick and Walton for 7 p.m. Thursday, and another for 7 p.m. on April 8. Pre-registration is required at Bit.ly/695grand." - Joy Summers
