Visit to Minneapolis

Last weekend we traveled to Minneapolis seeking out a dinning room set (I know kids...you're disappointed we won't be sitting at a plastic table. with plastic folding chairs...with a table cloth of course).  We stayed at the Marquette Hotel in downtown Minneapolis.

We ate at Solara, a favorite tapas restaraunt down there.  Had some really great food including this tapas pictured here: Shrimp “a la Plancha” in Sherry Sauce with Serrano Ham.

A must at Solera is a pitcher of Sangria.

We can't be downtown Minneapolis without a stop at the Local where for four years running, they’ve poured the largest volume of Jameson Irish Whiskey in the world. Primarly to the fact their signiture drink is the Big Ginger.
