Original Karen Market
Permanently Closed
Restaurants and Cafes Inside of Grocery Stores in Minneapolis and St. Paul | Eater Twin Cities
"On one end of this Eastside St. Paul store, there’s an entire wall of fridges stocked with vegetables and herbs. On the other are towering shelves of dry goods like coconut milk, canned lychee, tea leaves, and shrimp snacks. You’ll also find packages of mohinga (fish soup with rice noodles), fresh salads, and mote let kauk (chewy rice-flour donuts with a hardened brown sugar syrup). Burmese restaurants are scarce in the Twin Cities, despite the approximately 20,000 Karen people who live in the state — all the more reason to stop by the Original Karen Market." - Eater Staff
