B-Dubs a GO in Waconia as new site opens doors

Buffalo Wild Wings GO has opened a new restaurant at 144 Depot Drive in Waconia, the brand’s latest expansion in Minnesota as it pursues franchise growth across the state. Locally owned and operated by Matt Knodt and Lacey Pavek, the newest Buffalo Wild Wings GO location is the first in Waconia. BWWGO is built around takeout and delivery, so it’s a smaller version of B-Dubs serving the same wings, sauces and dry rubs Minnesotans have known from Buffalo Wild Wings for decades, say the owners. The smaller GO format allows it to reach towns like Waconia that never fit a full sports bar, company officials said. “Minnesota has been home to Buffalo Wild Wings for decades, and GO is giving us a new way to grow the brand in communities across the state,” said John Dawson, president of U.S. development at Inspire Brands. “Waconia is a great example of how well GO’s smaller format fits a growing community, and markets such as St. Paul, St. Cloud, Alexandria and Red Wing offer the same kind of opportunity. We’re excited to partner with operators who want to be part of GO’s next chapter in Minnesota.” With more than 220 standalone locations open

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

PopUp Bagels does the rounds in Minneapolis

When I committed to Macalester, I knew I was coming to a place missing two staples from Long Island, N.Y., where I grew up: New York pizza and bagels. Over the two years that I have been in the Twin Cities, I have ventured to find New York-style pizza and bagels. While my search for a true New York slice has come up empty, my bagel quest has been an endeavor.

Birds & Beers at the Loon Nov 18, 7pm

The November Birds & Beers speaker is Joe Berglove, who had a long career as a photojournalist and producer for CBS News and WCCO. Many of the stories he worked on dealt with nature or the environment which gave him insight into what was already his passion. Joe grew up with five siblings hunting and fishing and sharing their father's love for the great outdoors. He learned the names of all the flora and fauna he encountered. He enjoys hunting grouse, pheasants, turkeys, ducks and archery hunts whitetail deer. But it is watching a marsh come alive at sunrise and the amazing spectacle of the waterfowl migration or watching the forest from a deer stand that keep him coming. These activities have helped him build a respect for nature and how we interact with it.

Every Holiday Season, Minnesotans Line Up At Nelson’s Cheese & Deli? No, At Bergstrom’s Bakery? Pick Lindstrom’s Kaffe

Swedish donuts. Swedish almond cookies. A bag of cinnamon toast. That lineup alone made me stop scrolling and start planning a drive. The bakery sits in a Minnesota town famous for a water tower painted like a giant teapot. The donuts are made fresh every morning, and the Scandinavian varieties get special attention from fans.
