Here's a little bit about the Minnesota Food Guide...
Andrew Zimmern’s Guide Intro > Sneak Preview “What used to be fly over country is now as white hot as any “food destination” in America, and frankly, is the most interesting. For decades, as Americas food revolution has been rumbling along, states like Minnesota, and cities like Minneapolis & St. Paul were always the catch-up regions, years behind the trend-setters on the coasts. That’s no longer the case.”
