Parents: Are You Ready To Enjoy A Night Out in Montrose?

Parents have we got a deal for you! It’s time to escape to Montrose for a much needed evening of shop & dine fun! This Friday, for only $15 a child, you can drop your 5 to 12 year olds off at the Sparr Heights Community Center from 6 p.m. to midnight for a night of games, pizza and movies. When you do you will be given $10 in MSP scrip, good for Friday night only, towards your dinner and purchases in the Montrose Shopping Park! Our strolling musicians will be music to your ears as you dine in one of our outdoor cafes or discover Halloween treats in our “one-of-a-kind” shops. Sit under the stars and sip a craft beer on the patio of Thee Elbow Room. Explore! The night is yours!

Star Café! A Halloween Experience!

Pumpkins of all sizes suspended from the ceiling, the glow of little orange lights that spell Happy Halloween and the aroma of the wood fired oven tell us “Fall is here” at The Star Café! My absolute favorite dish here is curry butternut squash ravioli, fluffy pillows of goodness enrobed in a fragrant brown sugar and madras curry sauce with a sprinkle of sage. The complimentary herbed garlic rolls pair perfectly. You’ll feel so cozy here, too. You can easily hear your companions yet get just the right amount of energy from the expert wait staff in their white aprons. Love it!

You Must See the New La Perla Home Store!

I know the gift and home business well, so trust me when I say the new La Perla Home Store (2311 Honolulu Ave.) is one you must visit. Everything inside is brand new and beautifully expresses their vision of a boutique style gallery that is contemporary, stylish and modern. The happening neutral palette reigns supreme here. Owners Jake and Sona have excellent taste but as they say La Perla only looks expensive. There’s a gift and price point for everyone on your list. Let’s shop Montrose!
