The Great Minneapolis Pecan Roll-off, 2009
I love a good pecan roll (could be my favorite food item, ever), and for some reason I equate Minneapolis with this delectable deliciousness. Here’s what I found this trip:
Key’s Cafe. I was pumped to try this caramel roll, as the menu touts it as “famous.” This was my least favorite of the week, possibly because it was sans pecans. Also, this is not served a la mode. That’s an ice cream scoop of straight up BUTTER. Get ‘er done!
Moose and Sadie’s. This cute cafe by Max’s apartment is our go to spot for good breakfast. The pecan roll was delicious and I’d definitely have it again. But nothing can beat the challenger at…
Uptown Diner. Best pecan roll in the Cities, hands down. No matter how hard I try, I can’t find a better one! It’s just the right consistency of doughiness and gooeyness. Until next year, my little ball of perfection!
