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 Small-Town Minnesota BBQ Restaurant Is Bringing Texas-Style Smoked Meats To The Midwest

The owner of this barbecue joint builds his own smokers as a hobby. Then he fires them with oak, hickory, and cherry wood, and there isn’t a gas grill in sight. He spent 15 years perfecting one dry-rub blend. He also studied barbecue masters across Texas before bringing those lessons home to Minnesota.

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

This Minnesota Breakfast Spot Might Just Become Your New Favorite Weekend Tradition

One cook. One small grill. Roughly 18 to 20 seats. That’s the whole setup behind some of the most talked-about hash browns in Minnesota, and I think that’s wonderful. The diner first opened in 1941. Today, the cook at the grill learned the craft from his grandfather, who ran the place for 23 years before him.

The business idea was a success since it brought in lots of customers, but based on the overwhelming response, it’s likely that franchise owners didn’t expect so many people to show up.
