It was the mid 80’s and my parents and I were brand new residents to lovely Minnesota. When searching for the familiar warmth and flavors a Chinese restaurant (or Chifa as they are called in Lima, Peru, my mom’s hometown) offers, we were excited to find Village Wok in the Dinkytown neighborhood on the UofM campus. The food is authentic without being scary (no pig’s tongue or fish eyes, at least that I’ve tried), the service is always friendly and quick, and most importantly the chicken fried rice is delicious. It’s the kind you can eat for days after. Cures a baby’s crying and the common hangover.
Lucky for you college kids, the Village is open late (I think it’s like 1 or 2 am) so take your after-bar cravings to the best Chinese place you’ll find in the Twin Cities… maybe even in the entire STATE.
