Homer no function beer well without

Your daily Minnesota news roundup starts … NOW. Former Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara resigned in May amid an investigation into workplace sexual misconduct (not to be confused with the workplace sexual misconduct in the St. Paul mayor’s office) and Mayor Jacob Frey installed 31-year veteran Bill Peterson on an interim basis. Standing before the city council on Thursday, Peterson’s bid to become the permanent police chief was denied by an 8-5 vote. The driving concern among the no votes was concern about his ability to drive reform in the department.

This Century-Old Meat Market In Minnesota Still Cuts, Smokes, And Wraps Everything By Hand Like It Did Generations Ago

A Minnesota meat counter once rolled out dill pepper sticks nicknamed Dilly, and they went flying out of the case. That alone got my attention. The same shop sells Swedish sausage, deboned hams, and lingonberry jam from Sweden. It also still cuts porterhouse steaks, which fewer butcher counters seem to bother with these days.

Mickey’s Diner By Willy Serves Classic American Breakfasts 24/7 In A Railroad Dining Car Replica On St. Paul’s West 7th Street

Some kitchens in St. Paul close their doors when the dinner rush ends. One small spot on West 7th Street simply never got the memo. Its grill stays on through the late show, the early shift, the airport arrival, and the 3 a.m. hunger pang that nobody planned for. The building itself looks like it rolled off a train track and decided to stay.

If you’ve seen a good band lately (or even a lousy one), caught a rap show, or danced all night at a club, a booker helped make it happen.

This Old-Fashioned Minnesota Supper Club Is Worth the Drive From Anywhere in the State

The steaks here sizzle over open lava-rock grills right inside the dining rooms. Juices drip onto the hot rock and send up fragrant smoke. That is dinner and a show before the plate even lands. I noticed the front door is not really the front door. Guests enter through the...

St. Paul’s Bewick is the Cadillac of All-Day Cafes

When Nicole Pederson-Bates and her husband, Andrew Bates, went to name their new St. Paul cafe, one obvious inspiration presented itself: the Bewick’s wren. The wren, whose name is pronounced like the car manufacturer, is a small, light brown, North American bird with a long tail it waves around a lot. These rare wrens form monogamous pairs and forage together, eventually building a nest along with their mates. Pederson-Bates, chef-owner of Bewick, and Bates, her managing partner, were building the cafe together in the Hamline-Midway neighborhood they call home; the name just made sense.
