Pink Ivy (Hopkins) is opening soon. There was an article in the Star Trib on Thu...kinda high scale for the area, veggie-forward (BUT NOT VEGAN WE MEAN IT)...I really don't see this place lasting. Doesn't quite fit the neighborhood. We'll see. 

When you tell somebody somethin', it depends on what part of the United States you're standin' in... as to just how dumb you are.

Hit up Brasa in Hopkins for lunch today on a couple recommendations from friends. Creole style food. Had the 2pc chicken with plantains and cornbread (also was treated to samples of the pork and smothered chicken, since the mgr knew me 😀 ). Very good. You could cut the chicken with a butter knife, it was JOOOOOOOOOCY. Cornbread was MOIST, and the plantains were crack-like. I need more of those plantains. 

The meal w/a bottle of Mexican Coca-Cola was $21, but they also do not expect tips (and they are transparent about that). I did not leave hungry, that's for sure.

@bigbeer 

Went to Dave’s Hot Chicken tonight during the 2nd intermission. Not bad at all. I went safe and had the medium sauce. The fries are decent and the dipping sauce is dipping sauce. Simple menu which I like. Definitely going when the AV location when they open and all weirdos are done lining up for the craze.

Has anyone tried Chi Maek Korean Fried Chicken?   There is one in St Paul and they just opened one in Coon Rapids.

If you're ever in Omaha, try Spaghetti Works. My wife had their lasagna and she said it was the best lasagna she's ever had. I had a bite of it, and it was really good. I had the trio pasta (spicy Italian, clam & beer cheese sauces) with a hot link. Had a second bowl with just clam and beer cheese sauces and their meatballs. Their spicy Italian and beer cheese sauces were good. Their clam sauce takes the back seat to the Old Spaghetti Factory's. All meals also come with an unlimited salad bar and toast.

Brought back some smoked salmon and salmon fillets from Kendall’s Smokehouse in Knife River. Already broke open some of the sugar cured smoked salmon. Even gave the cat a couple of small pieces.

Thats pure up cat bribery!  I hope the cat loves you best, otherwise they’re just using you.  Oh wait, it’s a cat, of course they’re using you.😻

 

 

 

I'm a cat lover so i can be honest, they’re furry criminals.  

 

What have I got? I got no snacks and I got no respect.

This cat (named Conn Smythe) eats almost anything. He loves Cheetos and Doritos for late night snacks.
