112 eatery

last night's restaurant club met at my choice, 112 eatery, a quaint little restaurant settled into an old building in the warehouse district downtown minneapolis.

we took the elevator up to the second level and situated ourselves at a table by a big window looking down on the streets of my favorite little city. we immediately poured over the wi
ne list and selected a delightful pinor noir to accompany our meals.

since i've heard amazing reviews of the eatery's pride and joy– the cheeseburger– i ordered that. the gooey cheeseburger lived up to its rave reviews, as i devoured every single bite! served on a
n english muffin, it was just the right size to fill me up, and definitely not as greasy as the english muffin cheeseburger i tried at nick & eddie's a few months ago.

for dessert, lisa and i split the chocolate pot de creme– basically a fancy way of saying "chocolate pudding." while we could only manage a few bites each of the incredibly rich dessert, it was well worth it (and it was delicious with the pinot noir.)

all in all, this charming little restaurant provided a wonderful atmosphere for wine and conversation, and it served up a flavorful and unique meal. i'll definitely be back to try out
some of their appetizers very soon!
