$100.00 Gift Certificate to Lucia's Restaurant and Wine Bar

Lucia's is an earnest Minneapolis institution, an American bistro that has been serving inspired home cooking for fourteen years. The restaurant is committed to using locally grown and organic ingredients.

The menu changes weekly, but you can count on good soups (a shrimp and halibut chowder with sweet peppers, fiddlehead ferns, and the lightest touch of whiskey was especially impressive), great salads, and dishes like pork chops with sweet corn relish. You might choose a beet risotto with grilled chicken on greens, but no matter what, don't skip dessert.
