In Small-Town Lester Prairie, Near Hutchinson, Garbers’ Meats Is A Butcher Shop Worth The Drive Through Minnesota Farm Country

Smoked salmon is one of the most talked-about items at a small butcher shop in the middle of Minnesota corn country. That alone made me stop scrolling. The surprises keep stacking up. This little meat counter also turns out jerky, cheddar brats, old-fashioned wieners, and bologna with a loyal following.

Goodbye Lake Superior, So Long Lake Minnetonka: This Minnesota Gem Is A Freshwater Fishing Paradise

It's not for nothing that Minnesota has been dubbed the "Land of 10,000 Lakes." The North Star State is a fisherman's oasis, with places like Duluth offering access to Lake Superior, while folks in the Twin Cities can escape to Lake Minnetonka. Still, as serene as their natural beauty may be, summer crowding can be an issue. However, if you prefer a secluded fishing retreat off the beaten path and away from Minnesota's major cities, then say goodbye to these two destinations and hello to Little Jessie Lake. This body of water is located in Itasca County, in what is referred to as "Up North" by locals.

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.

Former Chipotle Trainer Opens Fifth Que Taco in St. Paul, Eyes 10 Locations

A former Chipotle supervisor who once trained new crews across the Twin Cities is opening his fifth Que Taco restaurant in St. Paul on November 14, filling a former Starbucks at 300 Snelling Avenue with trompo-roasted meats, handmade corn tortillas and a goal of reaching ten locations in the coming years. Margarito Martinez Torres built the business from a single Savage storefront in 2018 without outside investment, and he says he's now halfway to that ten-location target.

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...

This Minnesota Diner Serves Hash Browns, Burgers And Breakfast Inside A Gleaming 1939 Dining Car

Forget frozen hash browns. This kitchen starts with whole potatoes, steams them, shreds them fresh, and sends them straight to the griddle. It’s already a pretty good sign you’re in the right place. And the griddle sits inside a 50-foot steel dining car built in New Jersey back...

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.
