Traditional German Fare Has Filled The Tables At This 1930s-Era Tavern In New Ulm, Minnesota, For Generations

Ribs slathered in a house sauce so popular that people can buy it by the bottle to take home. That alone made me sit up and pay attention.

A Historic Minnesota Building Hides One Of The State’s Most Romantic Italian Restaurants

Old bank vault doors still stand at both ends of this dining room. Instead of guarding cash, they now watch over plates of fresh pasta. One detail I find worth mentioning is the name itself. It comes from an Italian word for a bank vault or cellar, which feels like a wink at the building’s past.
