"Keg & Case opened in 2018 with an ambitious slate of tenants anchored by In Bloom, the open-flame fine dining restaurant by chef Thomas Boemer and Nick Rancone of Revival." - Justine Jones
"In Bloom was the fine dining anchor of Keg & Case, located inside the historic Schmidt Brewery’s keg house. It closed officially last week after being shuttered due to the pandemic in March." - Joy Summers
"In Bloom, the two-year-old anchor restaurant at Schmidt Brewery’s Keg and Case market, is the latest St. Paul restaurant to fall victim to the coronavirus crisis. Partners Thomas Boemer and Nick Rancone just announced the sudden demise of their wood-fired gem on West 7th. 'As the decline in fine dining continues in the restaurant industry as a whole, our vision for In Bloom has run its course,' according to a joint statement emailed to Eater on Monday. Named after Boemer’s super-seasonal menu, In Bloom prepared everything over fire with the restaurant’s centerpiece 20-foot hearth. The partners’ first fine dining venture Corner Table, which closed in south Minneapolis last year, played up unique ingredients from small farms. In Bloom picked up plenty of accolades during its short lifespan, including several James Beard Award nominations and designations as Eater Twin Cities’ Design of the Year and Star Tribune’s 2019 Restaurant of the Year. The elegant-meets-industrial design featured floral-shaped lights made by an Italian artist, a large mural by Minnesota native Eric Inkila, and a laser cut white screen reminiscent of 1930s-era Morocco." - Tierney Plumb
"This open-kitchen restaurant located in St. Paul’s Keg & Case Market, an enormous 20-foot hearth offers more than just ambiance. With an approachable, seasonal menu spanning from wings to a massive steak, this is the ultimate fire-to-table experience." - Eater Staff
"In Bloom is the anchor restaurant for Keg & Case. This masterful creation of Thomas Boemer and Nick Rancone, the minds behind Revival and Corner Table, is its own little universe within the food hall. The intimate setting and the open fire pit are ideal for a date. Its phenomenal bar program serves some of the best drinks in the city. Slide in for a serious burger and fun cocktails." - Joy Summers
