Hello out there!!!
I thought it would be great for those of you who stumble across this blog to give me some suggestions of your favorite restaurants around the Cities.
Feel free to leave a comment below (can be anonymous) and let me know which restaurants (and type of cuisine) you love that I must try!!! I am open to hearing about specific dishes as well.
I love trying anything new or traveling to different areas in the Cities, so don't be shy.....
Lets get a good list going!
Please pass this link on to your friends and have them bombard me with suggestions also!
Check out Broder's (italian) on 50th & Penn in South Minneapolis, then... head over to 44th and France (actually Sunnyside) for the best malt ever at the Convention Grill!

Please try Taste of Asia in Coon Rapids. We have been eating there for about a year and a half, and have yet to be disappointed. Hot and Spicy anything is great. Laab Esan, Beef with Peapods and Broccoli, Beef and Potatoes. Just try anything. Yum.
We like the site. We'll be back. So many good restaurants, so little time.

How about a nice drive up to New Richmond to try Bellarietta Bistro? Their Creme Brulee is the best I've ever tasted. http://www.bellarietta.com/

Hello,
I live in Hungary, next to Budapest. I often go to my favourite restaurant which located in the heart of Budapest.
I think Café Miró Grande is a very famous restaurant here because hosts are friendly and main dishes are fantastic! I always eat Buttery veal roast or Paprika chicken with egg-dumpling souffle. And prices are ordinary, not expensive.
Wine selection is mostly Hungarian Wines. My favourite wine is Tokaji in this restaurant.
I suggest all people who travel to Budapest!
Best Regards,

you should try El burrito Mercado on the west side of saint Paul.
its is has a grocery store, with a bakery with a bunch of Mexican deserts and stuff.
i always get the two taco platter with chicken or beef it comes with rice and refried beans, and in the backery i have only tried a doughnut but the rest looks good.
the tamales are yummy also.

Hi,
If you would like to taste the traditional Hungarian dishes and wines, go to the Liszt Ferenc Square's Café Miró Grande!
They have fresh and delicious food, polite service and pleasant atmosphere in the city of the centre.
I have been there several times with my friends already and we always got good impressions on the Hungarian hospitlity.
Try it, you wont regret it!
You can check the pleasant atmosphere of this place under http://www.cafemiro.hu/grande/

Thought you might like to try a "before & after" in a tiny restaurant my husband and I are changing now. Jay's Cafe in St. Paul, we took over in Dec. and are changing it into a Caribbean restaurant, "Caribe Caribbean Bistro," opening spring 2010. So stop by, eat and see the "before" now, as Jay's Cafe open. We have added a few Caribbean items to the menu that you can try now

Hope you can stop in some time!

Try POP! in St.Paul or Minneapolis.
Very good food and fun atomosphere at the St.Paul location. The Minneapolis location is pretty small.
