It's been too long........

since I've blogged.....I don't have any exciting new restaurant reviews to share, so I thought I'd share some miscellaneous tidbits:

• I love the chicken tenders at Popeye's....dip them in their cajun mashed potatoes for extra deliciousness...I believe the only location is the one on Lake Street in Uptown, near the White Castle. Reminder: they only take cash!
• AsiaMaxx in the skyway may look tempting in presentation...but taste-wise it seems to always disappoint.
• The mom&pop sushi place next to Andrea's Pizza in the skyway is great...fresh made-to-order sushi for very friendly prices. Free miso soup with every eat-in order!
• Noodles Etc--anything with parmesean crusted chicken breast on top is tasty....I love their penne rosa.
• If you haven't tried a butter burger at Culver's yet, you are missing out.
• Have you ever tried fried spam? It is delicious.
• Spyhouse Coffee on 25th and Nicollet has a very delicous and economically priced Cafe Au Lait.
• Some days the hashbrowns at the Target Cafe are perfectly brown and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside....other times they are just greasy and mushy.  Take a good look before making your decision.
• Prima Pasta on 54th and Lyndale is offering dinner for 2 for $28. Includes wine, pasta, salad, and dessert!
• The Build-Your-Own Salad at Tavern on France (on France Ave across from Southdale Mall) is a great deal. Don't forget to try their waffle fries!
• The meatball sub at Potbellies is amazing....add peppers and onions for the ultimate flavor and heat.
