Northern Kitchen (Bloomington, MN)

The Twin Cities has not historically had much of a regional Chinese restaurant scene. There’ve been some very good Sichuan restaurants in the metro over the years (Grand Szechuan and Legendary Spice, most notably) and there are some acceptable dim sum options—depending on how charitable/cranky you’re feeling (Jade Dynasty and Yangtze are the best of the bunch). But there’s not much else beyond that of note. Or so I thought till this past summer when blog reader Michael C emailed me to recommend two Chinese restaurants I had not previously heard of. The one that particularly caught my eye was Northern Kitchen. This both because it’s located in Bloomington—a little closer to us than the Cities proper—and because their specialty is Northern Chinese cuisine. Given the rigors of my summer travels and then the start of my college term, it took us a while to get out there. We liked our first lunch—eaten the weekend before last—so much that we went back again this past weekend to eat more of the menu. Here’s a quick look at both meals.

Proposed High Voltage Transmission Line Drawing Strong Opposition

A proposed high-voltage transmission line drew strong opposition during a Minnesota Public Utilities Commission hearing in Sherburn Thursday. The PowerOn Midwest project would bring a 765-thousand-kilo-volt transmission line from South Dakota across southern Minnesota, including Martin County, before ending in Dakota County. The project must receive a state Certificate of Need before moving forward. Representatives from Great River Energy say the line is needed to maintain electric reliability as power consumption is expected to increase by about 25-percent over the next 20 years. However, all 24 people who spoke during Thursday’s hearing opposed the project. Concerns included the impact on farmland, whether the line is actually needed, and the possibility it could attract large data centers to the region. Martin County Commissioner Richard Koons questioned the project’s benefits to southern Minnesota, saying local counties are losing population and the electricity would largely pass through the area rather than serve local needs. Another speaker, retired Xcel Energy employee Kent Scholl, argued that a smaller transmission project could meet near-term reliability needs with less disruption. Administrative Law Judge Joseph Meyer will issue a report with recommendations by February 15th. The Public Utilities Commission is expected to make a decision on the Certificate of Need around March or April of 2027. Comments can be submitted to the email consumer.puc@state.mn.us, mailed to Minnesota Public Utilities Commission, 121 7th Place East, Suite #350, Saint Paul, Minnesota, 55101, or faxed to 651-297-7073. The written form to fill out can be found at https://mn.gov/puc/get-involved/public-comments/.

Popular coffee chain offers rare NeeDohs, causes traffic jams

Popular coffee drive-thru franchise 7 Brew recently got into some “hot water” after selling limited-edition NeeDohs that caused traffic and chaos earlier this fall. The business idea was a success since it brought in lots of customers, but based on the overwhelming response, it’s likely that franchise owners didn’t expect so many people to show up.

Mistakes pile up as Knights football is eliminated

St. Michael-Albertville football's momentum stopped after a first-round upset to Woodbury, as Rosemount beat them in the round of 16 to end their season in the state tournament. The Knights crushed the Royals in the first round, winning on the road as the six-seed over the three-seed in Woodbury. On Nov. 6, the Knights lost to Rosemount 35-7, not repeating the upset from last season or last week and falling to the No. 2 team in their quadrant of the bracket. The first half was all Rosemount. The Irish scored three times in the first half to make it 21-0 over the Knights. In the second quarter, the Knights showed signs of life when down 14-0. After a punt, the Irish fumbled on the ensuing drive thanks to forced fumble by defensive back Kyan Beaumont. Beaumont and the Knights took over on their opponent's 24 and drove down inside the Irish 10. A costly fumble coughed up a golden opportunity for the Knights offense to cut the lead in half with the first half time ticking down. The Irish capitalized and scored once more before the break. The second half had as much scoring, but the Knights joined the fray
