Spring has sprung and summer is making its way here! From delectable classics to sweet summery treats to a must-try brew, here are five things to eat and drink as we make our way to warmer weather!

1. Classic Cone with Krunch Kote

Summer is right around the corner and if you’re looking for the perfect snack, Moorhead Freez is the right place. Across the river, Moorhead Freeze offers lots of tasty treats, but a classic cone with Krunch Kote topping holds a special place in our hearts. This topper is vibrant in color and taste, combining sprinkles and candy-coated peanuts. Enjoy this on any of your ice cream treats or try a new one-of-a-kind treat featured every month this summer!

2. Chicken Tetrazzini Mac

We start with a delicious twist on a classic dish from Say Cheese Mac & Melt Co. The Chicken Tetrazinni mac includes, besides the creamy mac, of course, chicken and sausage, wild rice, sauteed onions and peppers. You’ll find yourself wanting more after trying this… and lucky for you, there are plenty of unique macs to try!

3. 8oz Filet Mignon

Downtown, right on Broadway, a new restaurant is blossoming in a familiar space. Teddy’s Eatery & Parlor has been in the works for some time, making changes and additions to the space and menu! A new, yet classic, item is the 8oz Filet Mignon. The steak has a rich and tangy marinade that balances out perfectly with the meat. It’s paired with a potato canoe, which is a twice-baked spud filled with garlic cheese and topped with bacon bits and green onions, as well as seasonal vegetables. Swing by and you’ll not only get to taste this dish but see what changes are going on inside!

In our community, we can find spices and flavors to create delicious dishes. One restaurant that brings these delectable joys to our tables consistently is Himalayan Yak. Their Malai Kofta dish includes deep-fried, minced vegetables formed into nuggets cooked in a delicious sauce packed with flavor and served with their biryani rice. This savory, comforting dish is a favorite here at Spotlight… watch out, the flavor is addicting!
