More food, I will make every attempt to hit as wide of a range in taste as I can (I wont post 5 pizza joints, I may not post any).
The Barbary Fig: I am not sure if this is called Mediterranean, Moroccan, North African or what, but it is good. My meal was a dish called Brik with Harissa. Brik is a flakey pastry wrapped around a filling of egg, onion and tuna. It is served a spicy sauce/paste called harissa. It is about 2 miles from the Crowne Plaza, and again it is up on the hill so you should probably take a cab.

Hello to everyone that will be attending the 2008 cfObjective conference. Over the next ten days I will post a series of entries based on things to do in The Twin Cities from May 1st to May 4th 2008. Mostly music and food. I have lived in and around Minneapolis / St. Paul for 40 years and I will not suggest a place I have not personally been to. I am not a critic, so I will keep my writing limited to what it is and what I liked.
First Up, Moscow on the Hill - This is a great restaurant featuring authentic Russian food and Vodka. I would suggest having the Czar's Medallions (pork). here is the map link Google Map
I would not suggest walking to there from downtown, it looks short on the map but it up hill both ways, especially when you have been drinking. Take a cab
