"Minnesota’s state fish is walleye, a freshwater fish that yields a flaky, mild-flavored white meat. A major traditional Indigenous food, it’s been feeding people on this land for a long, long time. The Cities’ longtime standby for walleye, Tavern on Grand, recently closed, but there are plenty other restaurants serving it around the metro — including the Tea House on University Avenue, which gives a Minnesota staple a traditional Anhui preparation, braising the fish and serving it whole, bones in." - Joy Summers
