I did my first review of Hazelwood Food & Drink back in December when they had recently opened, so it felt fitting that 8 months later we should visit again and see if it was still living up to the hype!

I recently met up with one of my bests for brunch at Gary’s Supper Club in Lakeville, Minnesota. The food was really good and despite it being a “supper club” it was actually pretty casual!

We were itching to try somewhere new, but were starving so didn’t really want to make the drive into the cities so it was the perfect opportunity to finally check out the new Lakewood Tavern in Lake Elmo!

I have a previous Hipster Hack for D-Spot Wings from 2019, but it is still one of our go-to places so it felt long overdue to do an updated review even if everything I said before is still very valid!

Sooooooo there’s a speakeasy in Eagan. Yeah, seriously, in EAGAN. My mind was blown, too. When we saw it on google maps we didn’t believe it was true and originally thought we were mistaken or that it had gone out of business because when we pulled up the restaurant said Burgers & Bottles, but low and behold, when we walked in we were directed to the red door and Volstead House Whiskey Bar + Speakeasy beyond.
Full disclosure: we actually ended up going back a second time on the following Sunday, because the bartender let us know it was half off pours so this Hipster Hack actually covers two visits and we are not, in fact, giant lushes haha.

I was so excited to be invited to the Grand Opening weekend of Spitz Mediterranean Street Food in Woodbury! In this household we eat gyros pretty frequently so having a location less then 5 minutes from us is going to be dangerous.

I very much thought Saint Dinette would be a French restaurant so it’s safe to say I was confused when I looked at the menu online. Don’t get me wrong, I wasn’t turned off by it’s lack of French fair, but more intrigued about it’s eclectic menu that, to be honest, doesn’t seem super cohesive to me on paper, but the the flavors were fantastic.

Every year we have a March Madness bracket with my parents and instead of the winner getting a pool of cash, we play where the loser owes everyone dinner. After a damn near 10 year streak of having dinner bought for me, I regret to share that this year I was officially the loser. The plus side is that it meant that I got to pick where we had dinner!
I’d been hearing such amazing things about Boomin Barbecue ever since they moved out of Minneapolis to the Nova Bar in Hudson and since my parents were staying at my sister’s IN Hudson it was the perfect opportunity to check them out!
