    They have both a liquor store and a deli on location. I usually start with a walk through the…read moreliquor store where they have a nice selection of wine and beer. As well as a nice mix of whiskey with a few harder to find bourbons from time to time. I then move to their deli where they have a nice mix of meat and cheese. There is also a small seating area around the back of the deli where you can eat and enjoy a glass of wine on location. The staff here is wonderful as they seem happy to help and are knowledgeable about the products sold.

    I love this place. The wine and spirits side is open and airy with a comfortable feel. The staff is…read morepretty knowledgeable about just about anything, and I have never been steered wrong in a recommendation when I could not make up my mind. My favorite side is the cheese/deli side. I enjoy Surdyk's, but they seem to have cut back on their product offerings, so I have been coming down here to France 44. They have a wonderfully curated selection of cheese of all varieties. You want soft cheese. If you are unsure of a cheese you might be interested in, the cheesemongers will certainly provide you with a description, and even allow you to sample before you buy. To complement your cheese, there is a nice array of cured meats, crackers, olives, etc to add to the cheese-eating experience. One thing I would add is that this establishment is not unlike shopping at Target. You enter to pick up one or two items, and you leave with much more than you intended.

    I am continually in awe of how beautiful the Northwinds Lofts building is. This cooking school…read moreinside it is no different. Walking in, there's one space for hands-on cookery and another big room for slightly more polished wine tastings or other foodie events. The space is insanely cool, with exposed brick and beams everywhere and interesting furnishings in the reception-type space. As we arrived, we weren't really greeted, but eventually one of the assistants came through with her Square app so that we could pay for our reasonably priced unlimited wine and sangria. You can also BYOB for a corkage fee. You're definitely gonna want that wine. My friends and I were taking the sauces class, which went over the basics of making a few important French sauces. Each one provides the basis for soups or gravies and whatnot. Their classes change all the time, so keep an eye on the schedule. I have no doubt that the chef/owner Marianne knows her food, but her presentation was all over the place. On the positive side, it was great during the few moments when she was speaking solely about cooking. I liked the glimpses of the Bill Nye-type style that I saw (I love learning about the chemistry of food). However, much of the three-hour class was spent listening uncomfortably as she took us through the twists and turns of her personal and professional life. My favorite things that we made was the bechamel for the croque monsieur and the berry vinaigrette over vanilla custard (YUM). We also did a coconut lime curry (with rainbow rotini?) and a beef bourguignon (nothing special). It was quite disappointing that one of the courses was skipped. It was supposed to be New Zealand mussels with garlic, bacon and beer aioli and that sounded really good. There was never an explanation given and we felt a little short-changed (and hungry... we hustled to the Smack Shack after). Even with the mishaps with the class, I had fun overall (probably the great company of my friends more than anything) and learned a few tricks that night. I see potential in this place, so I sincerely hope that they work out the kinks.

    First I would like to thank all the wonderful people that shared in our experience last night at…read moreSaga Hill Cooking Class with Marianne (Chef). This was my first time at Saga Hill and wanted to surprise my girlfriend with a different date other than food at a restaurant and drinks somewhere on a rooftop deck. We both enjoy cooking but have busy schedules like everyone else so decided to give this a go. Although it was a warm day the location (Northwind lofts) in Minneapolis was very unique and the open air feel was comforting. The building seems a bit on the historic side and really has been updated nicely with maintaining the shabby chic look that is inviting and warm. Just an FYI - the building owner has a "DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT PARKING HERE" sign on the building - it must be where he parks (I laughed out loud when I saw it). When we arrived we were greeted warmly by some of the staff and found most of the other folks that we were joining had already been there for a little while enjoying a glass (or two) of the bottomless glasses to enjoy. The wine selections were nice and paired nicely with our food (Marianne is a sommelier). Once we paid at the door (they take credit cards) we mingled around and took in the group and chatted people up as we introduced ourselves. Marianne takes a different approach to other cooking classes in that we "did" the cooking instead of watching and listening and taking notes. This really gave us the full interactive experience that I was hopeful for. Marianne is a vibrant person that has a great attitude for people to engage with. She walks around checks in and offers tips and answers questions but really let's each group dictate taste of each dish. The class lasts about 2 hours and we stayed and lingered after to chat with Marianne. We really enjoyed ourselves and I highly recommend this to anyone that likes to cook or wants a new experience in the cooking world.
