One Of The Best Places In The Twin Cities: The Bulldog Northeast

One of the best restaurants around in my opinion. They have one of the best menu’s that works for any occasion and an endless amount of tap beers that are not name Budweiser or Miller.

thebulldogNEMy fave: the Tater Tots Togarishi with wasabi mayo.

Stella’s Fish Cafe

Always a fun place to hang out whether it’s day or night is Stella’s Fish Cafe located in the heart of Uptown in Minneapolis. I have to say the best part about the entire place is the rooftop patio and to be honest, that’s the only place I have ever been been when I visit.

I have no idea why I didn’t grab a different picture of the skyline, never came to mind. The downtown skyline and views of Calhoun Lake is what makes Stella’s such a great place to kick back for a few hours along with the food. If you go at dusk or night, be fore warned that it gets crowded.

They have a good happy hour with 2 for 1′s and $5 apps.

I always keep it easy with the coconut shrimp, it’s one of my fav’s when I go. The jalapeno cornbread is not half bad either.

A Wicked Awesome Deli Called Be’wiched

Be'wiched Deli

First time here but definitely won’t be the last, what a great find along Washington Ave in the North Loop.

Had the roast beef on ciabatta bun with horseradish and havartti cheese. Topped off with an awesome onion sauce. You can purchase the sandwiches as a whole or half with a side salad (I went with the pasta salad).

From their website:

We use the freshest ingredients to create healthy food from scratch using local, natural and sustainable food whenever possible. Be’wiched Deli features house cured and smoked meats, fresh bakery items, and fast service.

Likes:

  • Natural ingredients
  • Unique, culinary sandwiches. Not your run of the mill type stuff.
  • Friendly staff (even helped figure out the band that was playing on the radio)
  • Environmentally conscious

Dislikes:

  • It was empty, but it was 2:00 in the afternoon on Saturday. So I guess that really doesn’t count ;-)

You find Be’wiched Deli in the Warehouse District located off Washington Ave and is definitely pushing the envelope of what a great deli should be!
