Shrimp and Chicken Étouffée from The Camden Social

Étouffée is a shellfish stew that's a New Orleans classic. Luckily you don't have to travel all the way to The Big Easy to savor this iconic dish — order it right at The Camden Social in North Minneapolis. In their version, shrimp and chicken are cooked in a rich sauce (via a cooking technique called "smothering," which is similar to braising) and served over rice. In French, "étouffée" means "smothered."

Cinnamon Apple Roll from Hen House

What's even better than a cinnamon roll? A cinnamon APPLE roll. A gooey cinnamon bun baked fresh daily, stuffed with baked apples and topped with a sweet glaze. Big enough to share, but once you take a bite you won't want to.

"Pumpkin Becky" from Bebe Zito Ice Cream

The wild ice cream creations at Bebe Zito are always fun and delicious and this fall season line-up doesn't disappoint.
