It's a Journey....

Victor's 1959

I had heard a radio personality tell that she had eaten the best-ever Cubana Sandwich at a Minneapolis restaurant called Victor's 1959.  Don is a big fan of Cuban sandwiches so I thought we should check it out.  Braving a predicted snow storm, our friends Gary and Joyce joined us for the drive in for lunch.  This is a VERY small, very old (by American standards) authentic Cuban restaurant in South Minneapolis.  We had a wait of about 45 minutes to get a table.  As you can see, most have to wait outside because there is no room inside.  The place is very colorful with a fun atmosphere.  Unfortunately we were not overly excited by the food.  We decided, however, that it was worth the trip to experience a new place.  We stopped on our way home at Crème Cafe for Sonny's ice cream.  The best! 

The snow started just as we drove into Watertown, about 4:30, rather than the predicted 11:00 am.  Hopefully it won't last long.
