The latest from Twitter: @Peace_Coffee plays cupid with “Caffeinate Your Cutie,” @triplerockmpls is serving @surlybrewing Mild at $3.50 a pint, @bittercube celebrates the long-anticipated opening of Eat Street Social, and @Masu_NE will feature a suggestive little Valentine’s Day roll through Tuesday.
Farmers markets take root in the suburbs, insight into the never-open Rachel’s on East Hennepin, Rachel hits the re-opened Forum (“a nice job of blending old Minneapolis with new, illustrated also by plans for the upcoming Minneapolis-St. Paul menu”), state fair posters to get you all hyped up, Well Fed Guide to Life hits Elsie’s Restaurant, Bar, and Bowling Center, and some cool local doughnuts.
regarding the gushing article in the STRIB article about the plethora of suburban farmers markets. Yah think the larger growers and producers who are trying to make a FULL time living off markets see this as an expanded market or perhaps a watered down market where they are running to more markets each week to get the same piece of market revenue?
In CA many its already too much of a good thing.
