Meeting #5

POP!

2859 Johnson Street NE

Minneapolis, MN 55418

Member pick: TJ

Attendees: Beth, Jenny and Terri

Restaurant description: Bright colors, low light. A wonderful ambiance with pop art on the walls throughout the establishment.

The meal: We had pop fritters for an appetizer (shrimp with black bean fritters and chipotle sour cream and guacamole). Beth enjoyed an asado pulled pork sandwich with citrius bbq sauce and pop fritas and drank a furious beer (6.2 alcohol by volume). Jenny has the chicken sandwich that had jalapeno mayonnaise, guacamole and pepper jack cheese, with pop fritas and an O'Douls Amber (.5 alcohol by volume :) Terri ate the portabella mushroom sandwich (TFDF), with black bean hummus, roasted pepper and mixed greens. TJ also drank WoopWoop chardonnay (x2 but only charged for one!). For dessert, Beth had a root beer float with a root beer chaser and peppermint tea, Terri devoured a chocolate sundae, and Jenny had the butterscotch sundae with peanut brittle.

Memorable moment of the evening: We had a very animated waiter (lots of hand gesturing), a tea kettle top drop incident, and Terri leaving her napkin on top of a candle...it melted.
