Red Cow builds buzz-worthy burgers

Loaded and stuffed is the name of the game at this new southwest Minneapolis burger joint

But I suppose I do prefer a flavor bomb to something bland. It's just that I love the meat part of a burger, and I wished Red Cow had allowed that to shine a bit more. That said, it takes all kinds, so if you like a saucy burger and a lot of options (including a totally admirable vegetarian one made of curried chickpeas and topped with avocado), this is the place for you. Whether you're left-brained or right, there are no split decisions when it comes to Red Cow's appetizer menu. So saddle up at this well-placed neighborhood eatery and bar, order a cold local beer and some fabulous fried treats, and don't worry about learning any lessons, just about snatching up that last cheese curd.

Had lunch at Red Cow yesterday with co-workers.  Burgers seemed too heavy for lunch so I went with a half Red Cow salad and a cup of their signature beer cheese soup.  Both were outstanding.  Best beer cheese soup I have ever had.  It was flavorful, smooth and creamy - not thick and grainy as I have experienced elsewhere.  Our waitress was top notch.  I will return.
