sprig Posted July 31, 2015 Posted July 31, 2015 Sprig I LOVE Krolls actually haven't been there for years, so shouldn't speak for the knoepfla, since I make my own, and don't put it in soup, Krolls version may not be as good as it seemed years ago. There is supposedly a very good german cafe/pub in downtown fargo. Anyone know the name of that place? Wish grand forks would get mom and pop german. Quote

Not a knoephla type place but I really enjoy the food. Would recommend going next time you find yourself in Fargo. Best knoephla I've had goes to the Napoleon Livestock. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted July 31, 2015 Posted July 31, 2015 Maybe Romo's will work his way to GF...............best Mexican food in the F-M area. Quote
sprig Posted July 31, 2015 Posted July 31, 2015 Würst Bierhall. Awesome beer selection. Not a knoephla type placeI see it's on the menu, as well as schnitzle, spaetzle, borscht, red cabbage, kraut, a whole variety of wurst, and kuchen. Sounds like my kind of place. And I don't know how to get an omlaut (sp?) where it belongs Quote

Sounds like my kind of place. Really? Maybe I should read the menu next time instead of going for my usual. Very good, again, definitely recommend going. Quote
Irish Posted July 31, 2015 Posted July 31, 2015 Chipotle has demolished Qdoba in the MSP area. Nothing wrong with Qdoba, but you need to realize that you will be getting a good measure of rice filler in that burrito. Quote
JohnboyND7 Posted July 31, 2015 Posted July 31, 2015 Nothing wrong with Qdoba, but you need to realize that you will be getting a good measure of rice filler in that burrito. Yep. Zero doubt Quote
stoneySIOUX Posted July 31, 2015 Posted July 31, 2015 Qdoba > Chipotle Also very interested to see how good Pepperjax's burritos will be. Just an absolutely asinine comment lol. PJax's everything is good, however. Quote
stoneySIOUX Posted July 31, 2015 Posted July 31, 2015 The Chicken Queso Burrito at Qdoba is a burrito sent to us from heaven!! Chipolte doen't have anything even close!! It's because it doesn't need to cover everything in cheese and disguise for a lack of flavor. Chipotle is sooo much better. Quote
fightingsioux4life Posted August 1, 2015 Posted August 1, 2015 Do they know what a booming economy is? They could have picked just about any other city in North Dakota and gotten a more booming economy. Yeah, here we go with the Fargo is the Center of the Known Universe woofing again. Even Howard Stern will tell you that is not the case (and I don't even like Howard Stern). Grand Forks is a much different (and better) place than it was 20 years ago. The 1997 flood was a blessing in disguise, it forced us to reinvent ourselves. Now we have a large and prosperous (despite itself) UND, the new UAS tech park, the soon-to-be-built fertilizer plant, the UAS mission at GFAFB, continued Canadian traffic and more home and apartment building than any other time I can remember (and I have lived here since I was 3 years old). Go back to Bisonville and talk about how NDSU is just one step away from joining the Big 12 in all sports now that wrestling is there. Quote
Hayduke Posted August 1, 2015 Posted August 1, 2015 Don't mention Kroll's and knoephla. Theirs is an abomination. Honestly disgusting. Agree. It's only for those in too big of a hurry or too lazy to look for a better knoephla soup. Quote
fightingsioux4life Posted August 1, 2015 Posted August 1, 2015 As for what to do with the old Hardees/Mia Mexico/Dickey's BBQ location, I think Grand Forks should put a cloverleaf interchange at Washington and DeMers on their transportation wish list. I avoid that intersection at morning and evening rush because of how congested it is. The Dickey's BBQ location (SE) is vacant, the NE corner is vacant, the NW corner is vacant and the SW corner has a Sinclair gas station, which could be bought out and relocated west of the cloverleaf on the north side of Demers. It could be the best addition to the Grand Forks street grid since the Columbia Road overpass. Quote
sprig Posted August 1, 2015 Posted August 1, 2015 Agree. It's only for those in too big of a hurry or too lazy to look for a better knoephla soup.I grew up on knoephla, strudle, borscht, etc, and can't wrap my head around rating knoephla good or bad. It's just mixed flour, egg, and milk snipped into boiling water. Quote

runaroundsioux Posted August 1, 2015 Posted August 1, 2015 They had a chile cookoff in Napolean once, knoephla came in second. That's how German they are. 1 Quote
Fetch Posted August 1, 2015 Posted August 1, 2015 I used to buy a bucket of Kroll knephla everytime I went to Fargo - it has been awhile now but now I want some.....bad 1 Quote

UNDBIZ Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Does Grand Forks have a Schlotzky's yet? They seem to be expanding in North Dakota over the past few years. Quote
