Savor History at Minnesota’s 14 Oldest and Most Famous Restaurants
If you follow my blog, you know I have an obsession for old houses.
Numerous times over the past year, I've written about houses that were featured on "For The Love of Old Houses."

I think there's something so magical about timeless character. Who doesn't enjoy driving into a town that transports you back in time with the old timey and stunning buildings?
I don't know if I spent a past life in a city like this or what it is that makes me SO obsessed. Every time I drive into places like Lanesboro, Northfield, Chatfield, just to name a few, I am in awe. I think they are super adorable.
It's even better stepping into one of those buildings. A dimly lit space with exposed brick - tell me that's not freaking romantic as can be! You could really wow your date by taking them to a place with all the history.
Cities like Duluth, Mantorville, and several in between are rich in history. Interestingly, there's even a restaurant in Minnesota that's older than the state itself.

So, now for the true Minnesotan test. How many of these places have you eaten at?
Sadly, I've only been to one - The Hubbell House. It was fabulous, but I think it's time to take that old restaurant road trip!
