We reject the values that have been upheld by settler colonialism, such as the wanton destruction of environment, including mining, logging, and monoculture agriculture, all of which contribute to the enrichment of a select few while our beautiful Indigenous landscapes and the people who have traditionally lived on them and are continually abused.

The goal of this restaurant is to showcase modern Indigenous foods. This means that we prioritize purchasing from Indigenous producers first, and build our seasonal menus to reflect region, culture, and Indigenous food identities. Our menu reflects the work of our non-profit North American Traditional Indigenous Food Systems (NÃTIFS).

We have cut out colonial ingredients such as beef, pork, chicken, dairy, wheat flower and cane sugar, instead highlighting true agricultural products of North America, such as corns, beans, squash, wild game, birds, fish and Native plants.
This approach offers a different story of American cooking than the Eurocentric one that is traditionally touted - instead celebrating the amazing Indigenous diversity of Turtle Island.

We hope you enjoy and Thank You for supporting our missing and vision!
