Even Superheroes Need Salad: Tom Holland Visits MIXT Mill Valley
When you think of Spider-Man gearing up to save the world, you might imagine high-tech gadgets or super-soldier serum. But during a recent trip to Marin County, actor Tom Holland proved that the ultimate hero fuel is actually a whole lot fresher (and greener) than that.
MIXT Mill Valley got the surprise of a lifetime when Marvel’s Peter Parker himself walked through the doors for lunch, patiently waiting in line like a regular guest, chatting with our team, and snapping a legendary selfie with our Mill Valley crew.
No movie stunts or costumed disguises were needed here, just great taste. When Holland stopped by the register, our general manager, Abigail Zatarain, asked the question on everyone’s mind: “Are you Spider-Man?”
With a smile, he confirmed he was indeed Tom. So, what’s on this Hollywood star’s MIXT order?
- Elote Salad: A seasonal salad featuring warm grilled corn, creamy cotija cheese, crisp romaine, pumpkin seeds, and our signature avocado-lime dressing.
- Dave’s Taco Bowl: Packed with warm cilantro lime brown rice, cabbage, blackened chicken, cotija, black beans, avocado and topped with the combination of chipotle crema and salsa verde.
As covered by KRON4 News and SFGATE, Tom was as humble, polite, and generous as his on-screen persona, even offering to take the selfie himself on our team’s phone. Local news outlets like Patch Mill Valley and the Mill Valley Chamber of Commerce quickly picked up the story, highlighting the star’s low-key Bay Area visit.
