Minneapolis - Bakery on Grand
Just back from lunch. Good chow. Nothing fancy about it. Wood floor,
booths and tables; a separate room and a unisex biffy about 9x11 feet (I was counting tiles) complete with stool and urinal both. Husband had their choucroute plate ($12?) -- two different small sausages, ham, pork, in a mild kraut. Roasted potato wedges. I had the Croque Monsieur sandwich ($9.50) - very tasty on brioche, accompanied by a salad of mixed frou-frou greens and 3 little cornichons. Good bread on the table -- "artisanal" stuff, I'm shooah. Then there were the gold-plated cookies -- a chocolate chip oatmeal one with a fair amount of almond extract in it for DH and some walnut sandwich thang for me -- mine had a sinful ganache filling. Lord, it melted in the mouth. I think DH's cookie was $2, and mine was $3. Pretty steep. We'll go again. Oh, they're at 3804 Grand Ave S in MINNEAPOLIS, not Grand in St. Paul. Nice people, too. -- -Barb, <www.jamlady.eboard.com> 2005 Pirohy Marathon pics added 1-23-05.
