						<description><![CDATA[The three-year-old Underbelly, located at My Florist Plaza in central Phoenix, is a blast from a forgotten American past. It&#8217;s the type of establishment that grocery store meat coolers have steadily pushed out of business, but co-owners Dustin Dahlin and Karen Martin aim to return the butcher shop to its rightful place in our culture.

The Uptown Phoenix Farmers Market, however, easily slides into that category. When it&#8217;s go time, the vast parking lot of the church that hosts the event doubles as a place to park as [&#8230;]]]></description>
