Local Roots

Local Roots is a market and cafe in Brooklyn with a counter at Chelsea's Market 57. Here, you'll find seasonally-driven food inspired by the owner’s Chinese heritage, including vibrant, purple rice fan tuan, which is a great choice for a grab-and-go breakfast or lunch. If you have a little more time to wait around, we recommend the cheesy scallion pancake wrap, which is exactly what it sounds like—a ton of melted cheese stuffed inside a crisp scallion pancake. They also have boba tea and a bunch of baked goods.
