Watch Little Village's Second Annual Roast of Iowa City
The second annual roast of Iowa City was a terrific success, and we’d like to thank all of you for making it out to The Mill this Sunday to help us heckle, badger, tease and torment this little Midwestern city of ours. We’d also like to thank those of you who submitted your red-hot roasts to Little Village for review.

We’re deep in the summer now. I hope that you’ve enjoyed this momentary respite from the heat that we’ve gotten these past couple of days, completing some of those tasks that you could just not complete when it was hot out like taking care of the garden or living your life how you want.
