Midway Diner opens in St. Paul's United Village
Kyle here. Midway Diner opened its doors a week ago next door to St. Paul's Allianz Field — so I had to stop by ASAP to sample the food. Why it matters: The café is the first establishment to open its doors from a new wave of construction in the long awaited United Village development . What to expect: A really solid smashburger — topped with a tangy sauce — anchors a lunch menu heavy on soups, salads and sandwiches. I also sampled the pancakes from the diner's breakfast menu. They were fluffy and sweet. The intrigue: The restaurant is the brainchild of Vincent Francoual, the chef behind downtown Minneapolis' Chloe and the former Vincent, A Restaurant, the Pioneer Press notes . The vibe: It's cozy like a diner, but with elegant trappings like dark wood paneling, a wall-length mural and striking orange accents. What we're watching: Dinner service begins this week.

Recipes here trace back generations, sausages made the old way without shortcuts that usually give a lesser version away immediately. Cases stay stocked with imported goods too, shelves lined with items most grocery stores wouldn’t think to carry at all.
