Bad joke, great food. Best Thursday happy hour for sushi in the Twin
Cities. 5p-7p, 10p-12a.

Cafe Maude

I can't believe I forgot to take a picture, so I stole this one from the fantastic http://wegotserved.blogspot.com.

Go to Cafe Maude. Eat food. Listen to jazz. I had the crab cakes, the ahi tuna, the beets and the mushroom bisque, and everything was fantastic. It's worth the haul to S. Minneapolis. (I know, it's practically Edina, but let's not judge.)

Soho Cafe

Great little hole in the wall gyro/pizza spot. Open late on fri/sat,
and while a combo with a drink will run you 11 bucks...it's a hefty
plate of food, and let's face it. You've got bigger problems. ;)

At the U. If you haven't yet, get there. So freaking good.

At the place I'm freelancing...

Is this awesome sign.

Three words. Chicken. Fried. Bacon.

Back to annoying you with pictures of where I eat.

Cooper in SLP. As far as the burbs go, you know how I feel, but the
West End Shops are pretty cool. The interior is awesome, we'll see how
the food goes.

Off to Puerto Rico

Gonna turn off the Pixelpipe to CodyIsMinneapolis.com for the trip, if
you follow me on the Tweetypages @codytesnow or the FaceySpaces, I'll
be posting stuff up there.

Lyndale Tap House

So far so good at this larger-half-a-Loop. (Loop, N. Washington, used
to be M+ until the douchebags took over.) Had some sliders
(fantastic) and chili (which was a bit thin, but great flavors) It's
Tues night, so I can't reeeally give you a crowd report, which is
going to start majorly factoring into M+ status. If the place is
overrun with hipster fucks or suburban douchebags, you straight up
can't be M+.

Gingeeeeer Hop!

noreply@blogger.com (The Guy Who Says So) — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 15:18:00 +0000

Immediate M+ status. The place looks great, the staff is super
friendly and attentive, the food is fantastic. Potsticker soup and the
ceviche are high on my recommendations.

Whoaaaawhoawhoawhooooaaaaa.

The fuck? Why is Mortimer's filled up with fancy girls, hipster fucks
and douchebags? Get the fuck outta my bar! At least there are a couple
good ol' straight barflies in here. Jesus. Don't come to a good dive
bar for a couple months and this is what I come back to?
Dissapointment, I know thy name.

Moto-i

noreply@blogger.com (The Guy Who Says So) — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 04:02:00 +0000

Look. This place is fucking awesome. M+ doesn't cover it. Incredible
food, amazing house brewed sake, fantastic decor. Get in that ass,
Larry!

M+? ohhh hells yeah

noreply@blogger.com (The Guy Who Says So) — Fri, 04 Dec 2009 02:04:00 +0000

I know it's always food and foodstuffs on here...but you cannot get
more M+ than First Ave. Budo and Grieves with Cunninglynguists and
Unknown Prophets coming up. M+ hip hop, M+ venue.

il Gatto, fire 2!

noreply@blogger.com (The Guy Who Says So) — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 23:13:00 +0000

@ilgatto Cod slider, jalepeno tarter sauce. For 3 bucks, you couldn't
beat this deal on the streets...of anywhere. First, the lightly fried
cod is sweet and moist, the heat from the jalepeno tartar sauce is
outstanding. Also, il Gatto has stepped their fry game waaay
up...these are skin-on, super golden Nick&Eddie or Bulldog style
fries. Fantastic.

So, there's one for the M+...

noreply@blogger.com (The Guy Who Says So) — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 23:03:00 +0000

Wood-fired octopus @ilgatto Let's put it this way. If HALF of the menu
is as good as this little app, il Gatto will be M+ before you know it.
Smoky, perfectly grilled octopus with a fantastic chickpea salad. The
drink is a "Sour Puss", which I loved, but do not recommend, unless
you KNOW you like grappa.

Il Gatto, Round 2

noreply@blogger.com (The Guy Who Says So) — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 22:56:00 +0000

So, to be clear, I wasn't happy with Figlio closing. I frequented and
loved Figlio. So, if you're gonna fix something that ain't broke, at
least on the surface, il Gatto is the way to gogo. The interior is
*right* up my alley, simple, a little rough-hewn, slightly Asian,
touch of trattoria, smidgen of industrial, and they keep it nice and
dimly lit...as far as the decor goes, A+ on the refit. More things
unbroken and therefore unfixed, the best HH in M+. (See attached table
top.) As for the food? Still M+ pending, but let's just say so far, so
good.

New M+?

noreply@blogger.com (The Guy Who Says So) — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 06:46:00 +0000

Maybe. The new il Gatto, replacing the imitigable Figlio. M+ pending.

At the Brother Ali show

Where @sixton gets a shoutout. Was great till Mpls didn't ask for an
encore from their best rapper. Mpls, -3.

Something you may not know...

...about me. I often love going to dinner alone. It's not so much
about being alone as it is about unfettered observation. It's also
about controlled pace of meal, items ordered, time spent, but for
someone who loves to cook and eat like I do (which is alot, clearly)
it's like...a vacation, really. I don't prefer I over eating with
great friends, or even going on a date. But I do love it. Also Amore
Victora is super M+.

Whoo!

noreply@blogger.com (The Guy Who Says So) — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 23:15:00 +0000

That was a nice day.

Mostest M+

Winner winner chicken dinner

Spookiest pumpkin at Centennial Lakes. Booya.

How many times

noreply@blogger.com (The Guy Who Says So) — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 00:32:00 +0000

Do I have to tell you to go to the super M+ Pancho Villa?

It doesn't

noreply@blogger.com (The Guy Who Says So) — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 01:58:00 +0000

Get any more M+ than Chino Latino, friends.
