Uma’s Market & Cafe

Melissa Lavender opened Uma’s Market & Cafe in downtown Mount Clemens as a way to offer something the area was lacking – a place to get affordable yet healthy to-go items like sandwiches, soups, salads, fruit and more. Named for her bulldog pug, Uma, the cafe is open for a late breakfast, lunch or early dinner. There are a couple tables for seating, or you can grab and go. Stop in and try one of Uma’s unique Red Bull mocktails.

If the shoe fits, share it. Since 1973, Rob Wolk has been styling women with fashion-forward shoes since his first Sundance Shoes location in Northland Mall. In 1985, Sundance Shoes moved to West Bloomfield where his daughter, Katie, started hanging out and waiting on customers at age 3. The father-daughter duo are now business partners and, after 32 years in West Bloomfield, they moved their Sundance Shoes location to downtown Birmingham. Chic women can count on Sundance Shoes for the latest trends in shoes, clothing, handbags and accessories for casual through formal and day-to-night. As Katie Ray Johnston says, “Sundance Shoes is a store for shoe lovers, boho babes, rocker gals and everything in between.”

Culantro Peruvian Eatery

by | Feb 22, 2024 | Ferndale, LBN Food

Betty Shuell and Alvaro Herrera are co-owners of Culantro, a Peruvian restaurant in downtown Ferndale. The mother-son team spoke about their passion for Peruvian cuisine and their desire to make every meal a celebrati on. Culantro offers a range of traditional dishes like ceviche (served with a little less heat than it would have in Peru), pollo a la brasa, empanadas and more. And don’t forget dessert. Among the choices are a light and fluffy passion fruit mousse and flan, a creamy custard dessert. Shuell would also love for people to check out Culantro’s new location on Main Street in Ann Arbor, which opened just two months ago.
