Greeting Text

Following twenty years of farmer's markets selling locally grown vegetables, native fruits, and local honey Linda created Marianne's Kitchen in Shoreview, MN, an oasis of good food, conversation and laughter in a suburban food desert. Operating from 2011-2017 the cafe offered home made soups, fresh bread baked daily, great sandwiches and treats and a complete line of gluten-free soups, pickled products, jams, jellies, salsas and locally sourced soups, honey and grains.

The Marianne's Kitchen of sharing, conversation, and learning continues with ongoing commentary, food reviews and food finds as we grow, cook and eat our food and sample local restaurants.

Oasis Cafe / Stillwater

Driving in Stillwater is a breeze now that the new bridge has eliminated downtown traffic.  Of course one of our favorite stops is the Oasis Cafe which is on the southern fringe of Stillwater.

 We really like their breakfast salads but tonight opted elsewise.  Linda had the Mexican Haystack of two eggs over hashbrowns with a nice complement of green peppers, tomatoes, onions, pepperjack cheese, pico de gallo, chili con carne and sour cream.  She was kind and shared.  John went with the pork belly street tacos and a side of mixed fruit.  Two tacos were presented, very amptly
filled with most and flavorful pork belly, pico de gallo, pineapple, Mexican cheese and onions.  Tortillas often make the taco and that 'make' was missing tonight.

 Recently undergoing a major rennovation, more of a tear-down and build,
The Oasis now has a new full-service bar with a opening overhead garage door which will enhance outside dining as winter winds down.
