One café's endeavor to redefine Yellowknife's abandoned downtown
It starts with the coffee shops.
The roughest street in downtown Yellowknife is a getting new café.
With its beautifully decorated pastries and chalkboard 'soup of the day' signs, the Fat Fox Café is a far cry from the fistfights, public intoxication and rowdiness common to 50th street. Many avoid this area in Yellowknife, but this coffee shop hopes to spread the strong sense of community felt by downtown locals.
