A hangover

You are not okay. You need salt, fat, water, and a quiet booth.

  1. A real recovery breakfast
    Keys Cafe
    Several locations

    A diner that knows its job. Hash browns the size of your face, eggs that are actually salted, a coffee refill before you ask. Forty-five minutes and you will feel like a person again. The Raymond Avenue location is the one.

  2. A pho if you need pho
    Quang
    Whittier, Minneapolis

    A bowl of pho tai at 1 PM has been fixing things on Eat Street since 1989. The broth is the medicine. Order the spring rolls if you can manage another solid food.

  3. A walk that does not require thinking
    Minnehaha Falls
    South Minneapolis

    Park, walk to the falls, look at falling water for as long as it takes. Free, short, restorative. The negative ions are doing more for you than you would have guessed.

  4. A small redemption
    Sebastian Joe's
    Linden Hills, Minneapolis

    A cone on a bench by the lake. The Pavarotti, the Raspberry Chocolate Chip, whatever. You earned a small good thing.
