The Restaurant In Minnesota Where Every Meal Is A Chef’s Surprise
In 2019, James Beard Award-winning Chef Gavin Kaysen opened a tasting menu restaurant in Minnesota where guests enjoy a multi-course meal in an intimate setting. At Demi, in Minneapolis, every meal is the chef’s choice – to the surprise and delight of diners.
Demi is located in the Warehouse District of Minneapolis, not far from Kaysen’s flagship restaurant, Spoon and Stable.
But they are always delicious, whether savory or sweet, like this cider donut with poached apples, apple caramel, sunchoke ice cream, and other seasonal and whimsical touches.
Several pairing options are available, including the Demi wine pairing, a reserve wine pairing, and the “temperance pairing,” in which courses are served with a variety of chef-concocted, alcohol-free beverages.
Don’t worry, if you are unable to finish a course, Demi’s staff will box it up for you to take home. Given its limited size and ever-changing menu, reservations, as you may imagine, can be difficult to come by. They are released monthly for the following month and tend to be snapped up quickly. Visit the restaurant’s website for more information on available pairings or to make reservations.
