Minnesota Food Trucks Hipster Hack Blog
Standard

When I previously lived in Northeast, Minneapolis Food Trucks were a standard diet staple as we bopped around from brewery to brewery. Food trucks are my absolute favorite way to eat, because I can easily graze and try one item from each place.

I recently became a Twin Cities Hummingbird and was asked to share my favorite Food Trucks in honor of the holiday so below I’m going to share my favorite 5 food trucks*

*I am making a very conscious effort to only pick food trucks and not include food stands, so if you want my list of ultimate “fair” foods you can check out any of my previous blogs.

Lat14 Asian Eatery | Golden Valley, MN

Lat14 Asian Eatery Golden Valley Minnesota Hipster Hack Review
Standard

When my cousin suggested we grabbed dinner at Lat14 Asian Eatery I was all in, because back before it opened I would drive by it to and from work everyday just waiting to go…and then, as happens, I got a new job and was never on that side of town again. So I’m almost embarrassed to say this is my first time there, but better late than never!

2024 Food Review Hipster Hack Food Review Minnesota
Standard

I thought I’d try something a little different and do a recap of my 12 favorite foods for 12 months of 2023!

Sharing in no particular order…

Puttery | Minneapolis, MN

Puttery Minneapolis Minnesota Hipster Hack Review
Standard

My excitement about the opening of Puttery Minneapolis rocketed when I learned it was a 21+ venue. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE playing mini-golf with my niece and nephews, but it would be a lie to say that I love being surrounded by kids on a date activity 😬 and I love that as adults we’re reclaiming some of the fun we had as kids like mini-golf and arcade games!
