Yummy Market to Open Friday in Silver Lake

A new market is finally coming to the Polka Dot Plaza.

Yummy.com--which also makes deliveries--will open its fourth location this Friday at 3607 Sunset Blvd. in Silver Lake, the former location of Natural Mind salon.

Emily Scherberth of Yummy says there is no grand opening planned.  "We will just open," she said in an email.

According to a release from the company, it looks like a big focus for Yummy will be its online delivery service:

Featuring a wide selection fresh fruits and vegetables, fresh meat, packaged, gourmet and organic groceries, Yummy.com’s Silver Lake location will offer the same promise of delivery in about 30 minutes, giving local customers what they want, when they want it. 

According to the release, Yummy will also be offering beer, wine and liquor, which some nearby residents had expressed concern about, given the high density of alcohol-serving establishments already in the area.

As chronicled here, the space has undergone a dramatic transformation since Natural Mind closed last summer.

The signature "green" wall has been removed.  A series of glass refrigerated cases have been installed.

Recently the Yummy sign went up too.

The market, which positions itself as a high-end convenience store that also makes deliveries, will be the chain's fourth location and its first Eastside one.
