Grandmas Saloon and Grill Poutine
My home town, Duluth, Minnesota, is a couple hours from the Canadian border, and heavily dependent upon Canadians for its economy – shopping, medical care, and tourism. In all the decades I lived there, Canadians were welcome, and even when exchange rates weren’t favorable for the neighbors to the north, Duluth merchants happily accepted the… Continue reading Grandmas Saloon and Grill Poutine

Superior, WI – Shorty’s Pizza and Smoked Meat Review
It’s always difficult to find the true origin of a local favorite; I don’t think anybody has ever established where the first Coney Island style hot dog was created….or the first pizza place in the U.S……who created the Jucy Lucy in Minneapolis, the Italian Beef in Chicago, or the muffaletta in New Orleans. Lots of… Continue reading Superior, WI – Shorty’s Pizza and Smoked Meat Review

Minnesota Twins Food – Without the Baseball
I’ve written about Valentini’s before, the upscale Italian restaurant on the Iron Range of Minnesota, with an outlet in Duluth, and a concession license at the spectacular new Minnesota Twins baseball stadium in downtown Minneapolis. By all accounts Valentini’s stadium offering, the giant meatball, is a smash hit, so Kawika and the Minnesota Burger Posse… Continue reading Minnesota Twins Food – Without the Baseball
