When I saw that Lolito was moving locations in downtown Stillwater I was immediately interested to hear what was going into it’s spot.

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.

Like basically every other Minnesotan, we wanted to try Wrecktangle Pizza hot off their win on the Good Morning America Ultimate Pizza competition. The closest location to us is at The Market at Malcolm Yards, which was an added bonus for me, because I have been wanting to try out this food hall for a while.
