Pizza Biga and Pumphouse Creamery

Had dinner last night at Pizza Biga, the wood fired pizza place next to the Turtle Bread Co on 48th and Chicago. I’ve wanted to try it for a long time, as my brother loves the place, but we just haven’t been. Tricia and I split the caesar salad and the pizza biga. I’m not sure what it was about the salad, but I just didn’t like it. It didn’t have a whole lot of flavor. The pizza on the other hand was awesome. I can’t find a menu online, and I can’t remember what it all had on it, but I’d highly recommend it. Our friends had the beet and asparagus salad which they really liked, and the margherita pizza that we didn’t like.

For dessert, we stopped in at Pumphouse Creamery which is right next door for some ice cream. I had the sweet cream and homemade oatmeal cookie. It was a little expensive at $4 for a one scoop cone, but it was damn good, and might be my new favorite ice cream shop in Mpls.
