Sample Chicago's best new vendors and vote for who gets a spot on our shelves.

Our biggest event of the year is back! Every September we host The Shelfies, a competition to find the next great local product. It's a win for everyone: guests meet the makers and sample new products, vendors connect with customers and peers, and our community gets together IRL for a real good time.

Mark your calendars and get ready to snack, vote, and hang with us.

There's a lot more we'd love to show you outside the metaverse — from fresh bread and flowers to the good meat and cheese. If you're local, stop by and say hi. We'll show you around.

We've eaten our way across North and South America, Europe and Asia. Our shelves are stocked with the most delicious and design-worthy finds, and we're thrilled to share them with you.

 We're Mia & Tim

We spent years eating our way around the world, from mom-n-pop holes in the wall to Michelin starred tasting menus. The last stop is always our kitchen table, where we recreate the dishes from our memories and build new ones.
