It's COLOSSAL

As in Colossal Cafe. This is the St. Paul location. You really need to try the flappers, which are yeast-based pancakes. They're crazy good.

Micey's Restaurant

Sign for a restaurant, just off University and Snelling, apparently no longer in existence. I searched the Internets but couldn't find any information about it.

The Mighty Portillo's

The first Portillo's hot dog stand opened in 1963. Now the Portillo Restaurant Group is the Midwest's largest privately-owned restaurant company. And if I'm not mistaken, they steam their hot dog buns.

Harbor View Cafe, Pepin

This isn't the place to go if you're looking for a burger. In fact, the people ahead of us stomped out in a huff because beef patties weren't on the menu. What you'll get at the Harbor View is a quality meal several cuts above the typical burger-joint fare. Bonus points for the well-appointed book cases lining the walls. Plus there was a warm basket of bread with butter waiting at the table. I'm a sucker for that.
