Rainbow Chinese Restaurant & Bar

Family-Owned & Run 2739 Nicollet Ave
Minneapolis, MN 55408
United States
+1 612 870 7084
http://www.rainbowrestaurant.com
tammy@rainbowrestaurant.com This is possibly the finest Chinese restaurant in the Twin Cities. Family-owned and run, the Rainbow boasts time-tested recipes and a rich interior. Seafood is one of the specialties of the house, but the place does a lot for vegetarians, too. Pan-fried vegetable dumplings make the perfect appetizer. Start off with one of the many noodle soups or cashew salad. Duckling or beef with mustard greens, sliced chicken with peapods, water chestnuts and baby carrots and tempura-style prawns with broccoli and red curry sauce are highlights of a diverse and delectable menu. The Rainbow offers a full bar.

Shuang Cheng Restaurant

Means 'Twin Cities' in Chinese 1320 4th St SE
Minneapolis, MN 55414
United States
+1 612 378 0208 This noisy restaurant in Dinkytown, with its mismatched tables and chairs and crepe paper streamers, is considered by many to be one of the best Chinese restaurants in the state. The extensive menu features numerous dishes containing seafood, fish, beef, pork and poultry. The seafood asparagus stir-fry with shrimp, scallops, squid and asparagus is sure to please. Try the soft-shell crab in black bean sauce, or ask for a whole walleye to be brought to your table. The fresh rice noodles tossed with shrimp and scallops, chicken with garlic and orange peel, Peking duck or salmon with black bean sauce are extraordinary.

tasteofmn@qwest.net The mall of the Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul transforms into a fairground for this annual event. The main draw are the dozens of local restaurants offering up a taste of their specialties. You have to buy tickets to purchase food or drinks. Activities range from clothing and jewelry vendors to kiddie carnival rides. Big name music acts play on numerous stages, all free. Hang around for one of the best fireworks shows in the state. Most vendors take credit cards, but the food ticket booths do not.
