SotaRol

Hello Hello again my Fabulous Foodies! I hope you all are having an outstanding day wherever you may be checking in from. It’s almost the weekend which means TAKEOUT! One of my all time favorite takeout restaurants is called SotaRol. They are an Asian fusion kitchen that offers a variety of mouthwatering plates. In case you needed more reasons to check out this exemplary eatery SotaRol has a peanut free menu as well as a gluten free menu, they offer sustainable seafood, and house made dressings, sauces, and kimchi. SotaRol can be found at three convienent locations throughout the Twin Cities metro. Here is a link to their website: http://sotarol.com/ . I love so many of the menu items and am always game to try something new each time we go. Some family favorites include: the tater-tots, veggie potstickers, chicken fried rice, fried shrimp tempura bowl (yes this is gluten free 😁), spicy pork ramen, beef and broccoli… I could go on and on. Now that I have made you hungry, if you’re in the area, be sure to add SotaRol into your takeout rotation for the weekend. Now be kind to one another and eat well. 💖

Until next time,

Brynn

Hazelwood Food and Drink

Hello Everybody! I know it has been a little while between posts, but the school year is slowly wrapping up and we all know what that means: professors keeping their students busy, busy, busy right up until the end of the year. I haven’t forgotten about all of you and have missed writing to you all. I think when many people, who are not local, hear Minnesota their first thought is the Mall of America. In addition to our beautiful lakes, national parks, and exciting nightlife within the downtown Twin Cities, many tourists visit Minnesota to check out the biggest mall in the United States. 40% of all visitors to the Mall of America are tourists, have you ever been? Though the Mall is full of great restaurants, if you’re looking for something outside of the Mall I would 100% recommend Hazelwood Food and Drink in Bloomington. They are located right across the street from the Mall of America and offer new American style cuisine. They have great gluten free options and my favorite menu item is the Rotisserie Chicken Sandwich (pictured below). Here is the link to the restaurant’s website: https://hazelwoodfoodanddrink.com/bloomington-menus/ . We just got a new ice cream shop near my campus that I will be checking out in the up and coming weeks, so keep your eyes out for that update soon. In the meantime eat well and be kind to each other. 💖

Until next time,

Brynn
