Insider Guide: Dave Thune
Dave Thune, Saint Paul council member representing the Second Ward, an area of Saint Paul that bespeaks history, elegance and activity, knows the hot spots in Minneapolis Saint Paul like the back of his hand. Take his advice on where to go:
Best Places to Pull Up on a Harley:
- Yarusso's
- Hat Trick
- Porky's Drive-In
- Black Dog Cafe
- Minnesota Music Cafe
A Few More of Dave's Favorites:
Favorite Annual Event: Taste of Minnesota, because my band plays there every year
Favorite Food at the Minnesota State Fair: Mocha on a stick, because I helped develop it
Best Spot to Enjoy the Outdoors or be Active: Saint Paul Saints(link to: http://saintsbaseball.com/) baseball games in the summer, and even thought its not outdoors, my Dad and I enjoy Minnesota Wild Hockey games in the winter.
Best Place to Take a Visitor: Harriet Island where you can watch the night lights of downtown Saint Paul from across a reflecting river.
Best-Kept Secret in Minneapolis Saint Paul: The Covington Inn Bed and Breakfast boat on the Mississippi, docked at Harriet Island. It is romantic, has a fabulous view, and horsepower. Who doesn't like to stay in a hotel with its own horsepower?
