One of the swankest hotels in town, with a fantastic hotel restaurant (D'amico Kitchen) and see-and-be-seen bar scene. The outdoor Ice Bar stays open all winter long. Huddle around the fire and you'll keep your mitts warm.

You’ll find a little bit of everything here-- Vietnamese, Mexican, African, Caribbean food and goods. Say "hi" to my favorite pastry chef Michelle Gayer at Salty Tart. Order one of her coconut macaroons and your life will be forever changed.

Still don't get the big cherry but the arboretum is wonderful.

No Minnesota summer is complete without a visit to the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden. Great place to bring the family on a beautiful afternoon. The art is really cool. Plus, it's home to the iconic Spoonbridge and Cherry.

Once you’ve tried the 5-8’s classic version, check out how this burger.

So. Damn. Good.

Hope you're in good shape! The climb up to the top of this lighthouse is the equivalent of climbing up 12 stories and is a hot, humid climb with a landing only every 31 stairs.
