With simultaneously retro and modern vibes, this hipster dining car is a Mecca for creative breakfast creations, classic burgers and imaginative cocktails. My personal favorite are the high-tops, delightful balls of fried dough topped with donut glaze and either sweet or savory toppings. On my most recent trip I had the Minneapple Delight, which was incredible. Perfectly fried, yeasty dough topped with cream cheese, caramel sauce, and caramel apples garnished with pecans. They also offer scrambles, pancakes, and huevos rancheros. Their hash browns are delicious as well, with a great balance of a thick cut and a crispy finish with a delightful smoky flavor. http://www.hi-lo-diner.com/

Blue Door Longfellow gets my vote for best Juicy Lucy (called the Blucy here) in the Twin Cities. Having tried most of the other notable cheese-filled burgers (Matt's, 5-8, The Nook), I think I can say with confidence that Blue Door is the top of the top, and with the endless variety of different Blucys you can order, you can keep coming back to try new things. The prices are also fantastic. Every Blucy on the menu is under $10, and if you come during happy hour, apps and wings are half off. http://www.thebdp.com/#blucy

Himalayan(opens in new window) is one of the best Indian restaurants in Minneapolis—and excellent Nepali and Tibetan cuisines round out the menu. Every option is phenomenal, but I always come back to the creamy Kathmandu curry and momos.

The Birchwood Cafe was at the forefront of the Midwest's farm-to-table revolution and remains one of the region's star players when it comes to organic, farm-fresh fare. The menu changes often to keep up with the growing season, but you can always rely on the Savory Waffle: a massive, Belgian waffle cooked to perfection and topped with a combination of eggs, bacon and seasonally appropriate fruits and vegetables.

Chef Kraft took the position as Executive Chef at 6th Street Kitchen in the East Village of Manhattan, where he truly found his voice in food - cooking very approachable, rustic food with strong Southern European influences. In 2011, Chef Kraft had the opportunity to be the opening Executive Chef of Osteria Cotta on the Upper West Side. The restaurant opened with great success and solidified his passion for fresh pasta and Italian cuisine. After eight years of experience in New York kitchens, Kraft longed for home. He returned to Minnesota in 2013, bringing with him a seasoned culinary vision. Since then, he has cooked in various restaurants in the Twin Cities area, including Grand Cafe in South Minneapolis and Chilkoot Cafe in Stillwater. Chef Kraft opened The Bungalow Club in April of 2018. He and his staff are committed to offering a simple, technique-driven food and drink menu, focusing on house-made pastas. IN THE PRESS "Terrific pastas, a lively (and wonderfully lemony) gem lettuce salad, a hits-the-spot dark chocolate tart." — Rick Nelson, Star Tribune "We didn’t think the Mike Phillips-era Craftsman charcuterie plate would ever have a worthy successor, but here it is.

There are two types of people in the world: those who think an entire restaurant dedicated to grilled cheese sandwiches is the best thing they've ever heard, and those who don't and are wrong. All Square(opens in new window) delivers a variety of craft grilled cheese sandwiches, both sweet and savory types that range from a classic four-cheese variety to best-selling jerk chicken and guava jam options. In addition to offering the best grilled cheese in town, All Square is also a nonprofit social enterprise that trains and employs formerly incarcerated individuals. Because, as they like to say, "those who have paid their debts to society are all square."

There's an ongoing debate about which restaurant first served Minnesota's now-famous Juicy Lucy, but there's no question that the "Jucy Lucy" you get at Matt's Bar is the definitive version. The Juicy Lucy is just a simple cheeseburger with the cheese stuffed inside the patty rather than served on top, though plenty of Minneapolis restaurants try to dress it up as something its not. The OG burger you'll get here is greasy, straightforward and far better than its fancied-up imitators.

In South Minneapolis, there's a stretch of Nicollet Avenue we call Eat Street. It's a bustling strip of restaurants where you'll find every type of cuisine under the sun, including this humble little restaurant with some of the best pho in town. The competition for Vietnamese food on Eat Street is fierce; Quang, Pho Tau Bay, Jasmine 26 and Pho Hoa are just a few of the other noteworthy spots you'll find within a few blocks. You truly can't go wrong with any of them—and if we're talking about vegan broth, Pho Tau Bay takes the cake—but there's just something about Pho 79(opens in new window) that I can't resist.

Located inside a former horse stable in the North Loop, Spoon and Stable has a well-earned reputation as one of Minnesota's most delicious and exciting fine dining establishments. Run by James Beard-award winning chef Gavin Kaysen, the restaurant masterfully combines Midwestern ingredients with French techniques to produce meals that are familiar yet unique. Although the dining room is closed for the time being, you can still have the Spoon and Stable experience by ordering takeout, picking up one of their "GK at Home" meal kits to cook at home, or by signing up for a livestreamed cooking class with Chef Kaysen himself.

Cool market in the heart of Longfellow. Bigger than a bodega but smaller than a Cub/WholeFoods. About the size of a big co-op or a a small Trader Joes. They carry a comboy of organic an normal food. (One complaint: sometimes you just want a bit of parsly and don't want to pay $4 for organic, but that's all they have. They have a big selection and a few bargain-priced store brand. Nice bulk food selection (I love teh "Fisherman's Mix" 8055!!!!) Friendly staff. Nice deli. Perfect neighborhood store. May be 5% more than Cub, but the ambiance (and the fact that they clean up spills!) is worth it! It's also about 10% less than Lund/Byerlys/WholeFoods.

Cool market in the heart of Longfellow. Bigger than a bodega but smaller than a Cub/WholeFoods. About the size of a big co-op or a a small Trader Joes. They carry a comboy of organic an normal food. (One complaint: sometimes you just want a bit of parsly and don't want to pay $4 for organic, but that's all they have. They have a big selection and a few bargain-priced store brand. Nice bulk food selection (I love teh "Fisherman's Mix" 8055!!!!) Friendly staff. Nice deli. Perfect neighborhood store. May be 5% more than Cub, but the ambiance (and the fact that they clean up spills!) is worth it! It's also about 10% less than Lund/Byerlys/WholeFoods.

For over 80 years, Nokomis Shoe Shop, a family-run business, has provided quality products, unparalleled customer service and a shopping experience that is truly unique. Starting from nothing, Conrad Westergren built a small shoe repair shop on 34th Avenue which, through years of hard work and a loyal customer base, became the Nokomis Shoe Shop. Although we no longer do shoe repair, our business has grown and today we carry a wide selection of brand name work and outdoor footwear, clothing, and other unique gift items. As our customers know, we’re a one-of-a-kind operation.
