The Twin Cities’ Most Anticipated Restaurant Openings, Spring 2022 - Eater Twin Cities
"A new Filipino restaurant is coming to St. Paul on Selby Avenue, adding a new presence to a cuisine that’s generally underrepresented in the Twin Cities. Leah Raymundo and John Occhiato, who own Cafe Astoria on Grand Avenue, are opening Kalsada with plans for two different menus: counter service for a Filipino-style breakfast menu during the day, mixed with Cafe Astoria’s crepe and coffee offerings and some American breakfast items, and a modern Filipino menu with table service for dinner. Look for lumpiang shanghai (meaty Filipino-style egg rolls), caldo (a Filipino congee typically made with chicken and rice), and a full bar with cocktails. Kalsada will open around mid-April, says the Community Reporter — and Minneapolis / St. Paul Business Journal has the full story." - Justine Jones
