A fairly amazing-sounding Better Beer Society brown bag series event at Butcher & the Boar, some revised menus at local restaurants, a local foodie’s epic Mother’s Day feast, tasting notes for Summit Pilsner and Steel Toe’s Provider, the Star Tribune’s Taste 50, and a new urban farm in Minneapolis.
The Shepherd’s Way cheese CSA is accepting members, Rick Nelson on Tim McKee’s rescue mission over at Il Gatto (if our ho-hum meal there last night was any indication, his presence certainly can’t do much harm), a sweet map of Longfellow dining, and an announcement for Tavola Lirica, an operatic autumn dinner series. Also, via an email: Gophers football concessions this year will feature a signature cheddar brat, and local fare from La Loma.
