For new Brazilian steakhouse, Maple Grove location is a homecoming

Bullvino’s Brazilian Steakhouse will soon be opening its fourth location and occupying the former Golden Corral site in Maple Grove, at 13603 Grove Drive. The restaurant has other locations in St. Paul, Bloomington and Bolingbrook, Illinois. There are also plenty of Minnesota and Maple Grove connections. Blake Hagert, owner/partner with Bullvino’s, said the restaurant is a family-owned and locally-owned Brazilian steakhouse, or churrascaria, rooted in the gaucho tradition of southern Brazil. “Our founder, Marcio de Morais, was born in Rio Grande do Sul, the birthplace of gaucho culture, and opened our first restaurant in St. Paul in 2019 to bring that tradition to Minnesota," he said. “The name says what we're about. ‘Bull’ is for the premium cuts we hand select, and ‘Vinos’ is for the wine tradition of South America.” Dinner is churrasco style, the way it's done in Brazil. “Our gauchos fire roast up to 21 cuts over open flame, bring them to your table on the skewer and carve them right in front of you. That includes picanha, the signature cut of Brazilian churrasco,” Hagert said. He noted that each diner gets a two-sided medallion. One side will let the gauchos keep bringing food and the red

Champlin man accused of using stolen IDs to hop between home rentals

Authorities say a 26-year-old Champlin man used out-of-state victims’ identities to rent apartments in St. Louis Park after being evicted from another unit. The man, Samuel Jusufu Willie, has been charged with felony identity theft. According to a criminal complaint filed Nov. 10 in Hennepin County District Court, Willie rented an apartment on Ridge Drive under the stolen identity of an out-of-state resident. Willie was evicted from the apartment April 17 and subsequently rented another unit on Colorado Avenue South under the identity of another out-of-state man. A local property management company reported losing $9,049.24 as a result of the two fraudulent rentals. A search of Willie’s vehicle uncovered financial documents belonging to two additional people and records tied to a third apartment in Minneapolis leased under the second out-of-state victim's name. That victim told investigators a Minneapolis management company had sued him for $19,017.84 in unpaid rent. He faces a felony charge of identity theft involving the transfer, possession or use of another person’s identity. His bail was set at $60,000. The charge carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and/or a $20,000 fine.
