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 a neighborhood institution for decades. These popular spots drew visitors from all over the metro and across 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 family lore and patrons' memories, with photographs, menus, and memorabilia that will bring you right back to the Lincoln Del--or make you wish you'd been around to experience its delights in person.
