  • This guy is so nice! I interviewed there last year when I first came ti MN. He was a bit late and the interview went a bit long and my car got towed! He was so kind and left his restaurant and drove me to the tow yard! He has a place in my heart just for that!

  • Hi Maggie19,

    James Norton lives in Minneapolis! He's also the editor and creator of this great online magazine about the area, The Heavy Table : http://heavytable.com/. What part did you find to be lacking in knowledge? I spent 3 days eating and uncovering TC gems with him, and found him very knowledgeable indeed.

  • James Norton needs to spend some time in the TC's ... Saffron is just one of many outstanding restaurants. His comments show his lack of knowledge regarding this area.
