Chef Lucia Watson is the owner and operator of one of the Twin Cities favorite neighborhood cafes.  The feel is intimate and the menu changes weekly as they work closely with local farmers, offering the best of each season.  Try their mixed greens with pear, hickory nuts, and home made vinaigrette.  All their salads are excellent and super fresh.  My favorite stop by item to purchase is their millet flax seed bread.  It doesn’t have sugar in it like so much of the bread nowadays and is crunchy with millet and flax, chewy, and hearty.  Half of the restaurant is sit down for dinners and wine and the other part lets you order at the counter and bring your food to the table.  They have been around for 25 years and a must stop in uptown.
