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.

Que Viet Village House 

NE Minneapolis

We needed a quick Sunday night dinner...there was a meeting at the CoffeeShop NE, so the rest of the place was full. 

So, we headed down the street to Que Viet Village House...squeaking in just in time (8 PM close on Sunday).

We didn't want to keep them after closing...they've already worked all day...so we decided to split the veggie egg fu yung and John added a bowl of egg drop soup.  

Everyone who works at Que Viet is so friendly and helpful.   I think if you've had a bad day or listened to any political news, it's a good place to escape and just have a really pleasant break from what's going on in the rest of the world.

Que Viet Village House John's soup arrived right away, steaming hot.   Big chunks of egg and thick rounds of spring onion...in a delicious broth...not salty; very flavorful.

Que Viet Village House John was absorbed with (or absorbing) his soup when our egg fu yung arrived, so I thought I would dig in and grab a big patty.   But they're just too big!   I lopped off 1/3 of a patty, added some rice to my plate, and drizzled a nice dollop of 'gravy' over my rice.   Steaming hot, full of veggies and cellophane noodles...with a crispy edge---that cooled off enough for a first bite while we waited for the 'middle' to cool off enough.   Soooo tasty!!!

We managed to polish off 1 1/3 patties between the two of us...but the rest had to take a ride home with us.   I was tempted to open the box before I put it in the fridge (the box was warm...ummm)...but I resisted temptation.   Before I left Que Viet, I ordered a Vietnamese coffee to go....so I was enjoying some delightful sips of creamy coffee.   And, there will be more leftovers for tomorrow 😋

Que Viet Village House Que Viet...wonderful food, served steaming hot...and by far the friendliest staff we've encountered in months...maybe years.   

You feel good just talking to the people.  The food is an over-the-top bonus!
