Food and drink website
The Daily Meal recently ran an article about dining options at Twin Cities museums, highlighting three major local museums.
Although the article is titled "
Minneapolis' Best Museum Food," one of the entries is Cafe Minnesota at the
Minnesota History Center in St. Paul. The article notes that the cafe highlights sustainable, local ingredients, and offers self-service dining with a grill and an array of entrees.
Another notable museum dining experience, according to the site, is FIKA at the
American Swedish Institute in Minneapolis. The Nordic-inspired cafe serves a seasonally inspired menu dedicated to regional ingredients, which includes smoked sturgeon with pickled beets.
The third highlight is the
Walker Art Center's Gather restaurant, which also focuses on locally sourced ingredients for its globally inspired dishes.
The article notes, "As we know at The Daily Meal, a key part of any traveling experience is the food. Although food service at a museum might not be the establishment's first priority, many do cater to their guests' appetites, and they do it well."
