Restaurant Week Wraps With Focus On Award-Winning Food

(KNSI) – St. Cloud Area Restaurant Week comes to a close with its Sunday best. The theme, “Award-Winning,” has been saved for last.

It’s a mix of items that wowed judges in taste tests, local and statewide, or a signature food or drink that each entrant wants to be best known for. Active Nutrition is whipping up its banana bread protein shake, and Blue Goose Speakeasy invites you to try one of their best sellers, the cold foam espresso martini. Or maybe you want a tropical dessert, like the Key lime pie from Flour and Flower.

Pull out the silverware for blue-ribbon entrées like the Green Mill’s deep dish pizza. Grizzly’s Wood Fired Grill is combining ribs and roasted chicken to show off its rocking rubs and barbecue.

The final featured dish is definitely unique. The Skatin’ Place is combining pizza with Minnesota sushi. The dough is topped with ham and alfredo sauce, and pickles are on top. It’s a one-of-a-kind offering from a roller rink and arcade.

Visit St. Cloud dishes on Sunday’s entries here. And don’t forget, all items are available year-round, so bookmark some of items from the past week to try in the future.
