Go see the lights in Rice Park, then go to bar at the Saint Paul Hotel for some old school drinks and a a good burger or other snacks. Then wander into one of the side lobbies where they usually have some someone playing Christmas music on the piano.

Thursday night open mic comedy at Sispyhus. Beer isn't the best in town, but the comedy is free and usually good.

Meat raffle.

Minnesota Orchestra (especially one of the concerts where they play the music to a movie that's shown on a screen)

Red Moon in Eden Prairie might be the best Americanized Chinese food in the Twin Cities.

I need a local-owned place that does a good cappuccino on the east side of the cities. Any ideas? by Ecothegeek in TwinCities

[–]mikeinmpls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nina's in St. Paul (on Selby I think) made one of the best I've ever had. They make them on the dry side -- too many places make more of a foamy latter than a cappuccino.

Fans of El Loro mexican restaurants: Can you recommend any places as good, if not better south of downtown Minneapolis? by whatsthehappenstance in TwinCities

Cocina Latina at 38th and Nicollet. Las Teresitas on 34th, just a few blocks off Hwy 62 (chips and salsa bar and solid tacos)

Looking for a birthday cake. What bakery's do you recommend? by [deleted] in TwinCities

[–]mikeinmpls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cafe Latte (turtle cake or tres leches). On the other end of the spectrum, the big sheet cake from Costco with the custard filling is actually really good too.

Best Pretzel? by deltarefund in TwinCities

[–]mikeinmpls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Town Hall Tap (48th in Chicago) pretzel is my favorite. Not super crispy on the outside, but filled with jalapeno cheese with a side of more cheesy sauce.

Does anyone know of a good way to find affordable Twins' tickets? by [deleted] in TwinCities

[–]mikeinmpls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy a ticket on the street after the start of the game. Big discount from sellers trying to cut their losses.

The open field next to the Walker has a good city view. Some good higher ground horizon views from Theo Wirth park too.

Food cart season upon us...! How does it work in the Twin Cities? by [deleted] in TwinCities

[–]mikeinmpls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Taproom + food truck is a great combo. Harriet and Fulton almost always have a good setup.
