Fargo?

I can honestly say I never thought I’d go to Fargo, North Dakota.  But, this past September, that’s exactly what I did.  Watching my little bro play football took us to yet another STRANGE place.  When I searched Design Sponge to see if there was a Fargo city guide, by some small miracle there was!  Such a good surprise.  We didn’t have a ton of time in Fargo, but we definitely got to check out a few good restaurants while we were there.  Thanks again for the awesome recos Design Sponge!

JL Beers – great place with a really interesting concept.  Each of their restaurants only has 47 seats, no matter the location (it’s an ND, SD, MN mini-chain).  The place was packed when we got there, but totally worth the wait.  Delish burgers and fab beer selection (you’ll quickly notice that beer is a theme of my travels…) If you ever find yourself here, get the buffalo BLU chips with your burger, you will not be disappointed.

Beermail - totally genius.  They have postcards at the bar that you can send to anyone, anywhere!

Wurst Bier Hall – this gem wasn’t in the city guide, but so glad we stumbled upon it.  Very cool, German style bier hall – complete with das boot.  This place wasn’t just cool for Fargo, it was cool for anywhere.  I’d definitely go on a regular basis if it was in Portland.

Rhombus Guys Pizza – college-y atmosphere, really good pizza.  Very cool roof top deck that we weren’t able to take advantage of due to the weather.  Great selection of beers on tap.
