The Thirty-Second Scoop on Birdhouse

Vegetables and whole grains get star billing at the Woodmans' modern diner.

Ideal Meal: sweet-pea pate, quinoa-and-wild-rice croquettes, and lemon curd.

Tip: During happy hour (3-6 p.m. and 10 p.m.-1 a.m.), the croquettes are $1 a pop. On Wednesdays, the late shift is "industry night," when restaurant workers and food enthusiasts gather to hear educational speakers and share information.

Minnesota Monthly's food editor Rachel Hutton joins the Current's Morning Show to talk about the latest trends in the Minnesota dining scene.
