Sometimes, you do get a second bite at the apple. MIXT,<\/a> the sprout-to-plate restaurant dedicated to bringing better eating to everyone, reopened in Scottsdale Quarter on November 16th. <\/p>\n\n\n

The restaurant celebrated with a ribbon-cutting from Scottsdale Mayor Jim Lane, Former Arizona Cardinal Michael Bankston, and Mizz Arizona Yesenia Vidales. <\/p>\n\n\n

The ribbon-cutting is just the first in a schedule of events for the weeklong celebration which will include free food via BOGO on select dates and dedicated programming to support Child Help<\/strong><\/a> in Scottsdale.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

Known for its elevated take on healthy dining, MIXT offerings feature premium, fresh ingredients that are thoughtfully combined to create nutritious fast-casual meals that promote and encourage a healthy lifestyle. <\/p>\n\n\n

The restaurant industry has been one of the hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic. As many dining locations have permanently closed, customers are finding it increasingly difficult to find healthy meal options. The leadership team at MIXT hopes the re-opening positively affects the Scottsdale community: <\/p>\n\n\n

We\u2019ve never been more serious about our mission and our responsibility to bring better eating to our customers than we have been this year. Access to healthy food shouldn\u2019t be a luxury. We are hopeful that the reopening of MIXT provides tangible support for our community.<\/p>
– Leslie Sliverglide, MIXT co-founder and CEO<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n

MIXT is proud to be a part of the Scottsdale community and is leveraging its reopening to support Child Help, a local non-profit charity organization that aids victims of child abuse. <\/p>\n\n\n
