"This Nokomis diner is filled to bursting with knick-knacks and kitsch, and has plenty of cozy booths for curling up with a steaming mug of coffee. Tuck into a plate of the Grand Marais scramble — rich and smoky with trout, cream cheese, and asparagus — or a short stack of fluffy buttermilk pancakes (some of the best in the Cities) topped with tart lingonberry butter." - Justine Jones, Stacy Brooks
