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.
Chef Lenny Russo worries on his Strib blog that the word “green,” in reference to environmental credentials, may have crossed over to the dark side. “First of all, there are so many charlatans out there jumping on the “green” band wagon that it gives those who are well intentioned a bad name and in many ways makes the whole movement look foolish,” he writes. “I’m beginning to believe that the very mention of the word is doing more harm than good.”
