Visiting Downtown Minneapolis from St. Louis...staying at the Millennium...

Thank you all for the suggestions. I am looking forward to my visit.

Visiting Downtown Minneapolis from St. Louis...staying at the Millennium...

I'm attending a conference 9/24-9/26 and have never been to the MSP area. I'd love suggestions for dinner on Friday evening. I tend to enjoy places with locally sourced, imaginative, seasonal menus. A few lunch ideas would be welcome also. I'm most interested in places I could potentially walk to from the Millennium, or perhaps a short jaunt using public transportation or a taxi. I may very well be dining alone, which I don't like, but will do so I don't miss a great meal. I'm also looking for some nightlife ideas for Thursday and Friday nights, anyplace cool to hang out. Someplace fairly relaxed, not a "club" type atmosphere. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Ideas for Dallas, with kids and without

We are from Saint Louis. He is currently living in Las Colinas. My bad for not knowing this isn't really Dallas. Sorry about that. I guess he always says Dallas because it gives us all an idea where he is? But, that said, I'm willing to drive for a great meal....

Ideas for Dallas, with kids and without

Hi! I'm headed to Dallas in a couple of weeks to visit my brother. He's new to Dallas. I am taking my two children, ages 5 and 8. I would love some ideas...both kid friendly and adults only. I'd love to find a special place to take my brother and SIL. I love all types of food. Obviously not planning to eat at any chains if we can help it, though sometimes unavoidable with the kids. So, please save me from chain restaurant hell!! Are there any kid friendly non-chain places? I've never failed to find an amazing restaurant in any city by consulting Chowhounders...so any suggestions?

Thanks, Gina
