Go to Frontera Grill for authentic Mexican - or Topolobampo* if you can get in. Go to Twin Anchors for ribs. Go to Hugo's for drinks and snacks. Go get a Beef (dipped, hot peppers) at Al's. Get a burger at Au Cheval. Hit up The Girl and the Goat. Chicago Chophouse.

So many great places to choose from.

* Exploring Tequila Country - Topolobampo
I’ve got more than enough Mexican at home, but meats? I’m here for those.

I took the little woman tonight (with my daughter and son-in-law) to Chan Garden, a Chinese restaurant in Dyersville. We wanted to get out front of the Mother's Day rush. Food was beyond great!

At times I have been shut out by the Mother's Day crowd and went to Burger King -- not so great for Mother's Day. I am a bit late on Mother's Day advice for the masses here, but c'est la vie, if you have not yet figured things out.

Show your mom, or mom-figure, a good time, today.

I established early on that I refuse to eat out on Mother's Day.

Yeah, I tend to avoid the dates/times the masses are all doing something.  Makes everyone seem like little lemmings, acting only when the calendar tells them to.

Take mom out the day before.  Or 2 days after.  It's no less special, but it's a TON less frustrating/aggravating.  Why drag things down on a special day?  Any day can be special if you make it so.

Wienery Diner in Minneapolis. Place a trip. Good breakfast food, but a diner that doesn't serve coffee!?! Little hole in the wall, one guy behind the counter who is also the cook. Decrepit old place. Known for its meats/sausages (hence the name). Not on my all-timer list, or my must-go list for MSP, but it was cool in a weird sort of a way, and the breakfast tasted great. In a neighborhood with a lot of public housing, so not the kind of place most people would accidentally stumble into.

Sure and lots of other people.

But a breakfast diner that doesn't serve coffee?  Seems odd.

I start my days with a hot bitter drink and end my days with a cold bitter drink.

Just found out my favorite Chinese joint back up North has closed due to one of the owners passing. They are my age and were married forever. Didn't want to put this on the grumpy page. It's more sad than anything. We were going to visit in about 3 weeks.
