Pow Wow Cafe been serving Indigenous cuisine in Kensington Market since 2016. But, with the lease ending at the end of May, their last day of operation is on Sunday. Owner Shawn Adler reflects on the community he has fostered over the past seven years:

On a recent dreary Saturday morning the downpour did not stop the two dozen or so people lined up outside Pow Wow Cafe for an Indigenous-style brunch.

When reflecting on the community he has fostered for the past seven years, “loyal” was one of the first words that came to mind for Adler. While the menu at Pow Wow Cafe switches up every once in a while, diners could always count on the Ojibway tacos. Starting with a savoury frybread, beef and bison chili is added and topped with tomatoes, lettuce, shredded cheese, cilantro, sprouts and flowers.
