The autumn chill nips at my heels as I traverse the bustling streets of Minot. At Magic City Hoagies, a peculiar creation catches my eye – the IKEA Delight. Swedish meatballs with brown gravy, crowned with fries and adorned with pickled cucumbers and lingonberry sauce. ‘Tis a curious amalgamation, no doubt inspired by the impending Norsk Høstfest. I shall sample this Nordic tribute, for such opportunities rarely present themselves on the frontier.
As evening descends, I find myself drawn to the warm glow of Arny’s 2.0. The establishment boasts an impressive array of spirits – Jim Beam, Patron Silver, Elijah Craig, and Basil Hayden. While I typically rely on simpler fare during my expeditions, I must confess a certain fascination with these refined concoctions. Perhaps I shall partake in an Old Fashioned, a fitting libation for this National Great American Pot Pie Day. The frontier may be wild, but civilization’s comforts are not unwelcome.
