Good News: Sherlock's Home reopens Bad News: It's just another restaurant http://www.startribune.com/456/story/464692.html StarTribune.com <http://www.startribune.com> Counter intelligence Last update: May 31, 2006 - 12:07 PM Sherlock's Home now home to Jimmy's The former site of Sherlock's Home, dark since late 2002, is coming alive again. *Jimmy's Food and Cocktails* (11000 Red Circle Dr., Minnetonka) is opening this month, with quite a Minnesota pedigree: Owner Jim Jennings is best known for his Jennings Red Coach Inn, a St. Louis Park stalwart from 1963 to 1999. His partners and children, Mike and Ann Jennings, are co-owners of *Rosen's,* the *District *and the *Refuge* in the Minneapolis Warehouse District. And partner Chip Isaacson is owner of *Ike's Food & Cocktails* in downtown Minneapolis. Mike Jennings will offer a traditional American menu. "That covers everything but Italian and Mexican," he said with a laugh. Consulting chef Tobie Niditz and executive chef Craig Johnson are offering steaks, chops, seafood, pastas, sandwiches and appetizers, with most prices below the mid-$20s. The 200-seat operation includes a pair of patios and a completely redesigned interior by Partners & Sirny, the design firm behind *Mission American Kitchen* and other looky restaurants. The name on the door belongs, naturally, to Jim Jennings. "Our dad has quite a legacy in this town," said Mike Jennings. "We felt it was absolutely appropriate to name the place after him." -- //Mike Behrendt MGBehrendt(a)mn.rr.com Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others. Groucho Marx
