Determined to try all the great food in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. Thursday, July 23, 2009. Visited on Monday, July 13th. A couple weeks ago, Erin and I received an invitation to attend a dinner with other local bloggers from Thom Pham, the owner of Azia. And other area restaurants. We agreed, but weren't really sure what to expect, without knowing who else had been invited, or even how many people would be there. Cranberry Curry - another winner). The manager of the restaurant made sure we got drink...

Determined to try all the great food in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. Saturday, January 12, 2013. Visited on December 31, 2012. Since he'd been told by a few people that it was a good spot. When we got there, it was quite a bit brighter and more casual than I was expecting. It reminded me a lot of Midori's. The bagel balls were very tasty - especially since I was ABSOLUTELY starving. I had been to a spa day prior to dinner, and all that relaxing apparently worked up an appetite! I got a glass of white w...

Determined to try all the great food in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. Wednesday, October 14, 2009. Where have we eaten?

Or follow I-35 WAY north to Cloquet to find Gordy's Hi-Hat. I'm going to keep updating this map as we go to new places, so bookmark this page if you want to watch for new places in your neighborhood.

Great service, everyone was knowledgeable and professional.

Determined to try all the great food in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. Wednesday, June 25, 2008. Visited on Saturday, June 21st with Janelle. I had read a lot about The Strip Club. The mashed potato pie was not exactly what I was expecting - for some reason I was picturing a little bit more (like maybe a whole pie dish filled with mashed potatoes? I really liked how the owner came over and talked to us. He seemed very down to earth and really wanted to make sure we had a good experience. Erin's co-worker...

I wouldn't expect anything less from La Belle Vie, and they definitely delivered on their superb reputation. As with most super nice places, I was worried about being disappointed, but thankfully I was not :) This was the most expensive dinner we've ever had, and it was definitely worth it. Erin: This was my favorite course! I was not...
