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.

Open Studios in NE, Colson Whitehead, Evan Clark Does ‘Jesse Ventura’: This Week’s Best Events

Welcome to Event Horizon, your weekly roundup of the best events in Minneapolis, St. Paul, and beyond. Tom Wilson may not be the first name to spring up when you think of great record producers, but throughout the ’60s, this Black staffer at Columbia University consistently found himself at the center of the action. Steven E. Jones’s Everything is Everything: Tom Wilson and Pop Music in 1966 sets out to learn why, and to restore Wilson’s contributions to the public record. By that landmark year, Wilson had already run a jazz label that released albums from Sun Ra and Cecil Taylor, worked on Dylan’s first five records and got “Like a Rolling Stone” on tape, and produced Simon & Garfunkel’s “The Sound of Silence.” He would go on to salvage the recordings that would become The Velvet Underground & Nico and worked with Frank Zappa’s the Mothers of Invention. The ’60s, man. Free. 6 p.m. 3032 Minnehaha Ave., Minneapolis; find more info here.—Keith Harris.
