Northern Kitchen (Bloomington, MN)

The Twin Cities has not historically had much of a regional Chinese restaurant scene. There’ve been some very good Sichuan restaurants in the metro over the years (Grand Szechuan and Legendary Spice, most notably) and there are some acceptable dim sum options—depending on how charitable/cranky you’re feeling (Jade Dynasty and Yangtze are the best of the bunch). But there’s not much else beyond that of note. Or so I thought till this past summer when blog reader Michael C emailed me to recommend two Chinese restaurants I had not previously heard of. The one that particularly caught my eye was Northern Kitchen. This both because it’s located in Bloomington—a little closer to us than the Cities proper—and because their specialty is Northern Chinese cuisine. Given the rigors of my summer travels and then the start of my college term, it took us a while to get out there. We liked our first lunch—eaten the weekend before last—so much that we went back again this past weekend to eat more of the menu. Here’s a quick look at both meals.

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 Minnesota Underground Cave System Was Once A Mine, Then A Mushroom Farm, And Later A Gangster Hideout

Tour guides still point out bullet holes from an unsolved gangland shooting inside a sandstone cave nightclub. I noticed that the shooting is only one chapter in a very strange story. The same hand-carved tunnels once supplied sand for glass. Later, they grew mushrooms by the ton. One detail I...

Mistakes pile up as Knights football is eliminated

St. Michael-Albertville football's momentum stopped after a first-round upset to Woodbury, as Rosemount beat them in the round of 16 to end their season in the state tournament. The Knights crushed the Royals in the first round, winning on the road as the six-seed over the three-seed in Woodbury. On Nov. 6, the Knights lost to Rosemount 35-7, not repeating the upset from last season or last week and falling to the No. 2 team in their quadrant of the bracket. The first half was all Rosemount. The Irish scored three times in the first half to make it 21-0 over the Knights. In the second quarter, the Knights showed signs of life when down 14-0. After a punt, the Irish fumbled on the ensuing drive thanks to forced fumble by defensive back Kyan Beaumont. Beaumont and the Knights took over on their opponent's 24 and drove down inside the Irish 10. A costly fumble coughed up a golden opportunity for the Knights offense to cut the lead in half with the first half time ticking down. The Irish capitalized and scored once more before the break. The second half had as much scoring, but the Knights joined the fray
