it’s basically a spiderweb of suburbs since the downtown is pretty dead but in forest park the art museum is great and FREE there’s also an outdoor theatre called the Muny which also has FREE tickets every night. the zoo is also free. Maplewood amd Soulard are cute neighborhoods. The botanical gardens are gorgeous. The Anheuser Busch factory tour is fun. Sugarfire Smokehouse has amazing bbq. There’s probably a lot of great bars and restaurants but I haven’t lived there in years so I’m not tuned in. The Loop is a very cute area as well lots of good spots there. Whatever you do come to peace with the fact that if it’s summer is going to be humid af and you might have more fun indoors.

food recs include grand pied for breakfast, balkan treat box for lunch (has been listed as one of the best restaurants in the country), tamm ave bar/nomad for burger + beer, and milagro azteca for casual mexican food/margs. sado or lucky accomplice are good for a nicer dinner. bars include venice cafe (drinks are meh tbh but vibes are great), the vandy, or golden hoosier. if you're into beer, side project in maplewood has some crazy stuff and there are some cute local shops on the same strip. clementine's is maybe the best ice cream ever and if you go you have to get their gooey butter cake flavor i second the zoo/art museum recs, followed by a walk in forest park. city museum is also fun, or the botanical garden. tower grove or soulard farmers market are a nice weekend activity

And here's what I'd do: Eats: - young joni or Kim's (Ann Kim is a genius) - you probably won't get into Owamni but you can try - seward cafe if you want some classic mpls progressive crunchy vegan options and brunch - 112 eatery and sit at the bar - centro or anything on eat street (check out eat street diner's club comic linked- my partner draws it) Otherwise: - go to the MIA - it's free and kinda like a mini-Met - walk around a lake even if it's chilly (Isles is great for first timers) - See some live music (First Ave/Entry/Berlin/Zhora Darling) - Walker sculpture garden and see the Jenny Holzer benches & the cherry and spoon. museum is between shows so I wouldn't pay full admission(keith haring is on its way) but it's an A+ museum

listen i got bit by the bug back in college when naked juice got in trouble for mislabeling their ingredients and i got a check for $2. but in the past year or so i’ve made $300 EACH from cases against zoom, tiktok, and t-mobile in which they misled consumers or misused our data. this is the last vestige of justice out there. companies are evil and they should be paying for it and they should be paying me!! at this point in my career i get targeted ads for these things because i actually click through the links but i can share some of the firms in the comments if you’re interested 👀
