Delicious Summer Specials dishes worth trying..

Anyone recently visit a restaurant that had a dish on the special or summer menu that was so amazing, it was worth a second visit? I am limiting the restaurant location to Minneapolis and St. Paul.

I know it is hard to actually revisit a restaurant when the special menu changes daily. But if it were a dish on summer seasonal menu - I would love to know the dish and the restaurant that is worth a special visit. I don't want to miss out on innovative dishes where the ingredients are at its peak!

For example - Bar La Grassa has staple dishes. But in the fall, it has this delicious prosciutto wrapped apple slaw salad with goat/bleu cheese which is absolutely to die for! But you can only get it when the apples are at its peak. I know come fall, I will make an extra trip just for that salad.

Any suggestions?

    Not sure if this is what you're after or not, but during the summer, Meritage runs a Tour de France promotion. Has nothing to do with the bike race, but they feature a three-course tasting menu from a different region of France each week.
