What I’ve enjoyed recently …
In Bloom, Saint Paul sports
the largest open hearth in North
America. Everything is cooked
in the hearth or wood-fired oven.
Order the venison tartar and
pheasant boudin blanc. Cocktails
are amazing.

Macarons, Take Four!
In our latest attempt, the Italian Meringue version failed twice so we decided to scrap that method all together. Instead, we focused our testing on the sifted almond flour/confectioners sugar folded into French Meringue method.
We haven’t perfected any of the recipes that we have tried, but we are getting closer to our goal of a delicious cookie that has its characteristic “foot” is crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside. I’ll keep you posted on our progress.
