As Spring creeps in, the weekend days get longer.. and so does my appetite for adventure.
To explore and hop into places I’ve never been.
Northeast Minneapolis is full of such places.
Despite living so close to many of my “undiscovereds”only when the snow begins to melt do I get this re-energized need to discover.
Discover I did last weekend.
A group of us finally made to a legendary dive bar.
A dive bar known for its kool-aid-ish, make you crazy type of a drink. (Note I did not get crazy, merely craved some post drink late night scallops. Normal, right?)
I do not even want to know what is it in. But post drink, that frozen pizza served all over the bar was smelling mighty delicious. Like I was seriously tempted to grab a slice of that processed peperoni off of my neighbor’s (read stranger’s) pie.
The bar was hopping at like 5pm and the people watching was over the top. The Greenies (and the Pinkies) were a flowing.
And I can finally say I’ve had the famous Greenie of Northeast at Tony Jaros River Garden.
Nothing like a green drink to usher in my spring 🙂
Have you been?
Was it good? I have never been. I need to make a list of all the places I need to try…maybe we can hit up a few together!
I’m always in to discover a new place with you!
Tony Jaros River Garden? neva heard of the place! but i agree with the adventure level going up up up in the spring — i’m anxious to start discovering new rooftops and patios 🙂
hmmm- nothing like a green “i don’t know what’s in it” drink to make you want to eat processed pepperoni! Sounds like so much fun. I now want to eat a pound of scallops, I wonder why?
Crazy drinks AND green drinks! Girl, you are going all out!!
