    Following dozens of feverish Facebook posts and hold-your-breath rumors, it's official: A new Sprouts Farmers Market supermarket will open in Dallas' Lakewood area, at the northeast corner of Abrams Road and Mockingbird Lane.

    According to a release, the store is going into Hillside Village in Lakewood, in the former Stein Mart space, which tragically closed during the pandemic.

    In addition to the Sprouts, there are three other new tenants coming to the shopping center: Alchemy 43, Sugared + Bronzed, and Modern Animal.

    Hillside Village has undergone a massive churn ever since it was acquired by new owners Northwood Retail in 2017. Recent openings include Susie Cakes bakery, Parlor's Handcrafted Ice Creams, toy store Froggie's 5 and 10, and Palmer's Hot Chicken.

    Here are the newcomers:

    Sprouts Farmers Market. Opening: fall 2022.
    The Hillside Village store will be laid out in a new, simple and intuitive format that evokes the chain's farmers market roots. At 23,000 square feet, it's 20 percent smaller than the chain's standard 28,750-square-foot size, with a tighter focus on meat, seafood, plant-based products, grab & go meals, first-to-market products, and produce.

    "We are thrilled to bring a wide selection of quality products that cater to a healthy lifestyle to the Dallas community," said David McGlinchey, chief strategy officer of Sprouts. "Sprouts offers fresh seasonal produce, custom-cut meats, vitamins and supplements, ready-to-eat meals, dietary options such as gluten-free or paleo and thousands of other natural, organic, non-GMO, vegan and plant-based products. We can’t wait for our Hillside Village neighbors to see what’s in store."

    The closest other Sprouts are on Henderson Avenue near Ross, and the Lake Highlands store at Skillman and Walnut Hill Lane. It'll open across the street from a Tom Thumb store, and also across the street from where an Albertson's used to be.

    Alchemy 43. Opening: Fall 2022
    Aesthetic bar specializing in cosmetic micro treatments, with the philosophy that the best work goes unnoticed. It'll be located between Texas Goods Co. and The Little Gym.

    Sugared + Bronzed. Opening: Winter 2022
    The nation's largest sugaring hair removal and sunless tanning destination will open its first Texas location at Hillside Village. next to Ebby Halliday and Texas Goods Co. The release says that the company has revolutionized airbrush tanning with a proprietary solution and revived an all-natural, ancient Egyptian form of hair removal called sugaring.

    Modern Animal. Opening in 2023
    California-based veterinary clinic chain will open its first Texas location at Hillside Village next year. The company offers greater access, convenience and flexibility in every interaction, in-person or virtually. Located next to ChopShop and Betty Lou, the brand was built as the first human-focused veterinary company, one that is committed to improving the experience of accessing care as a client and delivering care as a provider.

    In A Pickle

    Dallas-based Smoothie King chain debuts puckery new pickle smoothie

    The ever upwardly trending pickle flavor is surfacing in the unlikeliest of places: Smoothie King, the Dallas-based smoothie chain, is releasing a new limited-edition Pickle Smoothie — for those who love pickles so much they could drink them.

    Smoothie King is partnering with Grillo's Pickles, a Boston-based pickle company, on a beverage that combines Grillo’s Pickles with bananas, kale, and coconut water for what they describe as a refreshingly tangy drink infused with electrolytes designed to support hydration.

    The drink is $5.99 for a 20-ounce serving, and will be available through the summer. They'll be giving out free 4-ounce samples on May 16, while supplies last. A Today writer who ran out and tried it found that the banana and pickles both had an equally strong presence, and that it was "not bad." That's some reporting.

    Grillo's Pickles was founded in 2008 by Travis Grillo, who launched the business as a small wooden pushcart in Boston Common, using his family's 100-year-old recipe. It has since grown into a nationwide brand, with their bottles topped with kelly-green lids sold in the refrigerator section of major grocery chains such as Walmart, Target, Whole Foods, Kroger, and Aldi.

    Smoothie King is based in Dallas and is owned by Wan Kim, who opened the first Smoothie King franchise in Korea before eventually acquiring the national chain. He's also a major presence in Dallas' restaurant scene, opening the acclaimed Asian-themed Nuri Steakhouse in Uptown Dallas in 2024, and more recently debuting a chicken tenders concept on Dallas' Greenville Avenue called Flock & Fresh on May 2.

    Pickles have emerged in recent years as one of the buzziest flavors, including Fort Worth's own craft beer brewer Martin House Brewing Co., a pickle pioneer that has released a number of pickle-flavored beers. H-E-B just joined the pickle party with a new Pickle Chamoy Sherbet, and national boutique grocery chain Trader Joe's is about to reprise its annual Pickle Season onslaught of pickle-flavored products such as Dill Pickle Mustard and Pickle-Flavored Potato Chips.

    Beyond their flavor, pickles are a fermented item which can offer nutritional/probiotic benefits, although Smoothie King VP of R&D and Product Marketing Lori Primavera focuses primarily on the hydration aspect.

    "At Smoothie King, every recipe starts with delicious nutrition in mind," Primavera says in a statement. "Pickles are not only delicious and having a cultural moment, they also offer real nutritional benefits, especially known for their enhanced hydration. That combination gave us an opportunity to explore them in a new format and push our innovation into new territory, reimagining how a beloved flavor can deliver both function and taste."

    Grillo's Pickles Chief Commercial Officer Mark Luker calls them "functional benefits."

    "We love to do unhinged collabs at Grillo's," Luker says. "With that, we don't always get to talk about the functional benefits of pickles. When we partnered with Smoothie King for a hydration smoothie, we knew this was a great opportunity to do both. Those who are willing to try will be pleasantly surprised (and hydrated)."

    And if pickles are not your thing, Smoothie King is also simultaneously unveiling five watermelon smoothies including fan-favorite Watermelon Hydration, Watermelon X-Treme, Gut Health, The Activator Recovery Watermelon, and Power Meal Slim Watermelon.
