Minnesota Monthly's Dara Moskowitz-Grumdahl, stops by today to chat about the new generation of chefs in Minnesota:


Young Chefs: Meet the New Generation!


What's the best restaurant no one knows about? The Dakota.


Young co-chefs Derik Moran, 25, and Kristin Tyborski, 31, took it over a few months ago, and have now made it their own with an amazing menu that has it all. It's dazzling, rich, and good.


But if you're thinking: How the heck did such young chefs get such a top gig, well, you're not alone with that question. But there are lots of young chefs working around the Cities, the generation who will define Minnesota cooking for the next twenty years, people like Jamie Malone, 29, at Sea Change, Adam Vickerman, 26, at Cafe Levain, and Landon Schoenefeld, 30, at Haute Dish. How did they get there? And where will they be leading us? I'm actually going to be asking four of the top young chefs in the state that question live, and in person at the UBS Forum right here at the MPR Headquarters in Saint Paul, on February 21st:


There are still about two dozen tickets left, come! It will be lots of good conversation, a celebration of great local talent, and surely memorable. Find more information about the conversation and how to get your tickets, here.
