Unexpectedly good Middle-Eastern restaurant. A great combination of flavors create really super dishes. Friendly staff and good decor, but the food is really the star here. Not cheap, but definitely worth a visit.

New super-cool home of the Guthrie Theater. I hear the plays are great, but the building is something special. Architect is Jean Nouvel. An endless bridge points over the Mississippi and the building sits beautifully within this newly renovated mill-working area. Stunning and serene. (And there's a fab seafood restaurant there too.)

Trendy hotel for budget travellers. Designy, but not expensive. Cool location, just round the corner from the excellent Guthrie Theater. Friendly staff, but really the design's the star.

Metrodome station, 2 stops from down-town. 900 Washington Av South. 2 blocks from the mighty Mississippi.
