Minnesota!

This past weekend I hoped on a plane and headed up to Minnesota for the day to catch up with family and see my dad (he was in the US for the week)! Last minute trips can be stressful for many, but for some reason I find them to be thrilling and fun. Of course, this one was rather short so that did make it much easier!
This weekend was full of fun times with the family and of course LOTS of good food! I am not sure what it is, but whenever I am "on vacation" I feel the need to eat, eat, eat!
On Saturday evening we hit up one of my FAVORITE restaurants in Edina: The Convention Grill.
Since my dad does not get very much red meat in India we thought indulging in burgers was just what the doctor ordered!
When I went to the University of Minnesota I think we ate at The Convention Grill's sister restaurant on a monthly basis. I am a sucker for good malts paired with to.die.for fries and their Plaza Burger is unlike anything you have ever tasted.
I started out my meal with a delicious Oreo malt.
Can you tell I really enjoyed it? YUM!
Henry and Bo were kind enough to take a break from their chocolate malts to take a photo with me. Doesn't Henry look great!?
Here is it in all its' glory.... The Plaza Burger! Yes, that IS sour scream on the burger. I know it sounds odd, but it is literally one of the best things on the planet!
Mmm, thick cut fries fried to perfection!
What a meal and of course it was even more divine as I was surrounded by my amazing family and 75 degree temperatures!
