Girls Night Out

January 27, 2010

I had a dinner this evening with a few girlfriends at Bar La Grassa in Minneapolis. This place is fabulous! It just won restaurant of the year by the Star Tribune. There were 5 of us for dinner and we each had something different for a starter (those who had one) and an main entree. Excuse the flash it was very dark in the restaurant. We did have a Foodie Celebrity Sighting Andrew Zimmern of The Travel Channel Bizarre Foods

 

Anne had the Soft Eggs and Lobster Bruschetta to start and Orchiette with Braised Rabbit for her main.

Melissa – YOUUU are my favorite. I’m hearing about all these great restaurants that I’ve never even heard of! I guess that’s what I get for sticking to Noodles and my local Uptown faves. ;)
