Girls Birthday Lunch (msp)

[Stownamy]

I am looking for some place "new" to celabrate my birthday with a few girlfriends. We usually do a lunch, that includes at least 2 bottles of wine, and good food. Most recently we celebrated at La Grolla in St. Paul.

Does anyone have any recommendations? I've been checking out the reviews on The Strip Club, and Porter & Frye. Basically I'm up for anywhere in the St. Paul/MPLS area.

I won't gush about Signature Cafe again here (you can search for plenty of threads on that). But "Girls lunches" are a significant part of their lunchtime business. It is a really nice setting for that sort of thing. Their patio should be opening in a couple of weeks too. That would make it even better...

Some suggestions in South Minneapolis:

Blackbird- Some amazing sandwiches
Grand Cafe- Really tasty brunch
Craftsman- Everything is good, highly recommend the venison burger

And in St. Paul, my choice would be Ngon Bistro. Very tasty Vietnamese/French fusion food.
