For as much as Minneapolis’ food scene is thriving, there are some troubling holes in its repertoire. Good Korean food is pretty tough to find (although The Rabbit Hole is really fun). The skyway has too many Subways and too few literally-anything-elses. And for the love of all that is…
There are a lot of things outsiders don’t know about Minneapolis. Some of these things are basic. Like, where it is, for example. Have you ever asked someone from the East or West Coast label all the states in the U.S.? Might be the only thing sadder than a Sarah…
Watching the Minnesota brewery scene go off the rails is fascinating, wonderful, and a little sad. Fascinating because ever since Minnesota passed the law allowing breweries to open tap rooms onsite, craft beers have been multiplying like mad and PBR’s stranglehold over Minneapolis has become more of a light hug.…
I would like to start off with an apology. It has come to my attention that FDC has entered the dark part of the internet. Yes, that shady world inhabited by Nigerian princes, YouTube commenters, and pictures of Putin not riding a bear. How do I know we’ve become part…
It’s official folks. FDC is now international. Now I’ll admit, I am using the airport definition of international here, where it only takes one foreign destination to gain that designation (like an airport that conducts the quick flight from Sarah Palin’s house to Russia). I recently won a trip to…
The Third Bird had been on our list for a while. Lucky for us, we picked a beautiful day to sit outside on Third Bird’s nice outdoor seating area facing Loring Park. It also provided a perfect vantage point for making sure I could run to my car parked at…
I believe that math education is incredibly important. It is crucial in a variety of jobs, has many practical applications such making high schoolers more able to split a goddamn tab, and is generally useful in building a good logical framework which serves most well in life. Bad math can…
I had a serious hankering for ribs for some time. Things reached a head when I came home to see two clear plastic containers filled with baby-back ribs that Brad had as leftovers. So when Matt texted me and suggested getting some BBQ, I started pre-loosening the belt buckle to…
Memory is a funny thing. Turns out that when you experience something, if you don’t write down your thoughts or really think about that experience at all for a while, you eventually start to have a hard time remembering what your experience was like. This brings us to The Kenwood.…
Ultimate redemption. That’s what was on the line for Little Caesars after the fiasco that was the pretzel pizza. Although there are already some amazing reviews out there, when Little Caesars announced they were releasing a bacon-wrapped deep dish pizza, the whole FDC crew was very excited because there was…
We've been to the first two of these and they were spectacular. You should definitely check it out!

Are people who prefer their steaks well done just wrong? It’s the question that has divided a nation that is otherwise firmly united on the “steak is great” fro…
