Minari, a New Korean Restaurant, Is Coming to Northeast Minneapolis - Eater Twin Cities
"A new Korean restaurant serving dumplings, weekend dim sum, and Korean fare is set to open in Northeast Minneapolis’s former Erté & the Peacock Lounge this summer, the Star Tribune reports. Minari is the work of chef Jeff Watson, executive chef and culinary director for Dani del Prado’s restaurants and an alum of Isaac Becker’s Bar La Grassa and Burch Steak. Expect big bowls of noodles, barbecued meats, and banchan, plus a bar program from beverage director Megan Luedtke that’ll likely highlight sochu and makgeolli (an effervescent Korean rice wine). Minari is the latest addition to Northeast’s budding restaurant hotspot: At 323 13th Avenue NE, it’s just down the street from Young Joni, Anchor Fish & Chips, La Boulangerie Marguerite, Oro by Nixta, and incoming restaurants Vinai and Diane’s Place." - Justine Jones
