Great Food, Great Prices: Twin Cities Restaurant Week

Until Friday, it’s restaurant week here in the Twin Cities, and that means great food from some of the area’s best restaurants and chefs at unbeatably low prices! None of us at the office has participated in restaurant week before—blame a mixture of procrastination, forgetfulness, and not enough time—but this year we are determined to change all of that.
We’ve been looking over Mpls.St. Paul Magazine’s list of participating restaurants and their respective menus, and we have to say, there are some great options. A couple of us are already planning on going to The Oceanaire Seafood Room, and I’m personally really excited to try the Firelake Grill House and Sea Change at the Guthrie.

And not only do we want to go to some of the best restaurants, but we want to hear what restaurants you’re excited to finally try! Tweet us with your restaurant plans this week, using the hashtag #MNRestaurantWeek, and you could win a copy of local foodie Bob Macdonald’s new book, Knives on the Cutting Edge: The Great Chefs’ Dining Revolution. In it, you'll find everything from the rise of celebrity chefs to the healthy eating movement and the growing use of bold flavors by chefs all over Europe and the U.S. It's a great accompaniment to all the delicious food you'll be experiencing this week! Plus, it's not out until August, so you'll be the first of your friends to read it!
