 From the Strib.... Vampire wines are Bloody Great!!!

Sorry, it's not on their web site.  But he gives
the Pinot Grigio Regas 3 stars.  I can't believe he
didn't try the Pinot Noir.... :)
REMAKE, PART TWO
Thanks to a cash influx from a new partner, chefs Doug Flicker and Melinda VanEeckhout are
giving their Auriga (1930 Hennepin Av. S., 612-871-0777) a much-needed makeover. In
addition to a new look, the restaurant will add a private dining room, a chef's table
and expanded bar seating. To accommodate construction, the restaurant will close Nov. 8,
partially reopen on Nov. 13 with a limited menu and be completely back in business on Nov.
27.
SAY GOODBYE
Sad words, posted on the door at Chet's Taverna (791 Raymond Av., St. Paul): "We
at Chet's are no longer open for business. Thanks for your patronage. Good
luck."
Chi-Chi's has served its final Fiesta Platter. The Mexican chain has closed all of
its 76 locations coast to coast, including its five Twin Cities outposts. Rights to the
chain were bought by Outback Steakhouse.
