Khyber Pass in Crisis and Morning Roundup

Khyber Pass Cafe is fighting for its financial life with a series of fundraising concerts; an Oktoberfest update and new restaurant openings via Stephanie March; Local D’Lish is now offering cooking classes (here’s our profile of the shop’s co-owner); the North Shore restaurants Emily’s Eatery and the Lighthouse on Homestead have combined to become The Lighthouse at Emily’s; it’s been a good year for fish hatcheries in Wisconsin; a great AP story on Wisconsin artisan cheese (although its grasp on cheese curds is a little shaky); a fire in Babbitt destroyed Zup’s, the town’s only grocery store; and Crystal checks out the new co-op and art shop in St. Joseph, the Minnesota Street Market.
