"I found that Mercantile Dining and Provision at Union Station, a James Beard award–winning restaurant, is closed at least through the weekend for renovations. Much of the work is being done in staff areas like the kitchen, which is getting a new floor, and the restaurant is also getting a new barter as well as a second pastry counter that will showcase its Füdmill baked goods. Füdmill is a partnership between Mercantile founder and chef Alex Seidel and Denver D Bar founder Keegan Gerhard; Seidel said the renovations will make the dining room 'feel lighter and fresher,' and the restaurant is planning to reopen sometime early next week." - Paul Albani-Burgio
