Anodyne~ Part 2

Banana Walnut Waffle and free-range Ham and Cheese Omelet. Fantastic.

Huevos Rancheros

With a green tea latte and potatoes and toast instead of rice and beans. Great way to start a weekend. Delicious ranchero sauce. This was from a spot inside the Midtown Market.

Mediteranian Deli

Falafel Sandwich. Big but not necessarily that good. Just saying, I've had better.

The Wienery:Part~2

Told ya, I'd be back. The Coney Island (chili dog) and the Maxwell Street. Maxwell Street has grilled onion, green peppers and hot peppers and its is goddamn delicious.

stuffed chicken breast

Spiced and stuffed with cheese and asparagus. Fresh corn. Bread from the Franklin Bakery. That's what I call a dinner.

eggs benidict

My first attempt. I only busted one yolk before perfecting it. I did have help though. Served with garlicky mushrooms.

Sunny Side Up

I always order whatever the special is. Fantastic crunchy French Toast and mini waffles.

tator tot hot dish

Straight up comfort food. A slight variation on my roommate's recipe. Tots, cheese, cream of mushroom soup, turkey burger, corn, etc. Craving satisfied.

Anodyne

Great little coffe shop on 43rd & Nicollet. The grilled free-range Ham & Swiss and the vegetarian Breakfast Burrito. Good stuff.

The Tea House

During events down at the gallery in St. Paul, we often time order food. The Tea House has become a new favorite. This was the Chicken in Garlic Sauce...or as we have come to call it; the Garlic in Chicken Sauce. Mmmmm, chicken sauce. It's actually quite delicious.

The Wienery

Coney Island and fries. This place rules. The chili is actually dropped on the grill for a little while before it goes on your dog. Speaking of dogs; they have plenty of options, including vegetarian. Fries are made fresh and ordered by how many potatoes you want. I got one and it was more than enough. This was my first visit but it will not be me last. That, I can promise.

Shortstop

Shortstop is a sports bar in Fridley, MN. One of the best breakfasts ever! Plus it's huge. That's what she said.

Memory Lanes

Some sort of bacon cheeseburger thingy. Deec. Waffle fries. Always reliable.

Taqueria La Hacienda

Lake Street location. Chicken tacos and el pastor quesadilla w/ rice & beans. I really like the quesadilla. Rice and beans are bland. I was told the tacos were as well. I guess the chicken was cold. Too bad. Otherwise a pretty good place to eat. My buddy had the Cuban style torta and said it was awesome. Apparently they put a hot dog on it! Open 24 hours a day too.

Enchiladas

Homemade. Chicken. Good.

Salmon Dinner

Broiled Salmon. Served with red potatoes (seasoned with various herbs & spices, spritzed with olive oil and baked), fresh toasted baguette (from Franklin Avenue Bakery), steamed broccoli. It all washes down perfectly with a couple of Kokanees...which I might add, we finally have here in Minnesota. Kokanee was one of the things that I always looked forward to, when heading up to Winnipeg for the Folk Festival. My brother and the boys out west jokingly refer to it as "the Canadian Budweiser."

Broiled Chicken Breast

Served with Caesar salad, steamed vegetables and garlic bread....and the silver bullet.
