The venerable Fitger’s Brewery Complex<\/a>, in Duluth, Minnesota, dates from the late 1800s, and when beer production ceased a few decades ago, local businessmen saved the series of buildings and turned them into a boutique inn, shops, and restaurants. \u00a0The 62 room inn offers great view of Lake Superior, and easy access to downtown, as well as Canal Park, via the waterfront Lake Walk, a 7.5 mile pathway along the shore, used by walkers, joggers, bicyclists and skaters.<\/p>\n

Within the complex are four restaurants and two nightclubs, and the Midi Restaurant and Wine Bar<\/a> has a new ‘mash-up’ menu, offering Meditteranean cuisine (including small plates), local specialties, and, as a tip of the hat to the brewery’s origin, a few German plates. Food is served from 7AM until late.<\/p>\n

Minnesota Burger Bureau Chief \u00a0Kawika, accompanied by pals including local balladeer Todd Eckhart<\/a>, celebrated the big man’s birthday at Midi, imbibing on the Midi Gourmet Burger, a half found of premium grind from Minnesota’s Unger Meats<\/a>, adored with caramelized onions, havarti cheese, lettuce and tomato, with a side of sweet potato fries. \u00a0Midi features a dozen ala carte sides, ranging from spaetzle to cous cous, and Minnesota wild rice, of course.<\/p>\n

Dessert was a traditionally prepared but uniquely plated crepe suzette.<\/p>\n

The party was more than satisfied with the food and attentive service, and the birthday boy pronounced the burger as completely over the top.<\/p>\n

Menus are onlin<\/a>e.<\/p>\n
