When I have piles of work to get done, or a mailbox full of messages -- these are some places I like to go to get away from it all.

Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome -

900 S. 5th St. - Minneapolis (Downtown)

I'm a huge baseball fan, so rounding up some friends and heading to a Twins game is a must. And if you've never had a Dome Dog, you don't know what your missing.

Casper and Runyon's Nook -

492 S Hamline Ave - Saint Paul (Highland)

Ignoring the moment the molten hot cheese from the center of the burger dripped onto my hand: One of the best burgers I have had in a while.

5-8 Club -

5800 Cedar Ave. S. - Minneapolis (Nokomis)

The history behind this place is pretty cool and the food is just as good. (And cheap!)

Wasabi Sushi Fusion -

903 Washington Ave. S. - Minneapolis (Downtown)

The VERY first place I ever tried sushi. And I've gone back numerous times -- the waitstaff is very knowledgable and helpful, even suggesting what new menu item I should "brave this time."

Park Tavern Bowling & Entertainment Center -

3401 Louisiana Ave. So. - St. Louis Park

A nice alternative to the downtown scene -- and a pretty decent bowling alley and back bar, complete with darts!

Axel's Bonfire on Grand -

850 Grand Ave. - St Paul (Cathedral Hill)

Random fact that I find hilarious: One of the piano players looks like Prince. If you know who I mean -- isn't it freaky?! If not, check him out, he knows when to throw in a cover of "Little Red Corvette"
