Description

For Jewish and non-Jewish customers alike, the Lincoln Del was once a Minneapolis version of Cheers—on the Del everybody knew your name. Folks hardly minded waiting in line for the fresh caraway rye, the cabbage borscht, the corned beef sandwiches, or the towering strawberry shortcake because each talk over with was once like a circle of relatives reunion, complete with warm embraces, recounted stories, boisterous jokes, and—of course—quite a lot of amazing food.

From modest beginnings as a bakery in 1930s north Minneapolis to a local chain of three bustling restaurants in St. Louis Park and Bloomington, the Lincoln Del was once a neighborhood institution for decades. These popular spots drew visitors from in every single place the metro and around the state, and even years later patrons nostalgically recall the tasty baked goods, the generously portioned sandwiches, and the sense of belonging that beckoned everyone who walked through the door.

The Lincoln Del Cookbook gathers not only coveted recipes—for blintzes and challah, coleslaw and chicken matzo ball soup—but also circle of relatives lore and patrons’ memories, with photographs, menus, and memorabilia in an effort to bring you right back to the Lincoln Del—or make you would like you’d been around to experience its delights in person.
